HELP my HDTV System has noise and sudden pause


Help, guys, I've been struggling with this for a long time, and still can't get it solved.

The music play back (and movie audio) will have random (not always) electrical noise in there, it's very short, normallly 0.1-0.2 second. Also, it will pause (no sound at all) for 0.1-0.2 second, and keep on playing. It only happends with my HDTV-PC, but doesn't come up with my DVD player.

I use to have this problem with my old system, though it was the anmp, then though it was the PC, maybe the sound card?

After replaced everything, I am still haveing this problem, now I really have no idea what's going on, can someone please help to think what's the reason? Thanks.

I know it takes some time for a DTS stream to be recognized and for the decoder to "kick in", perhaps that is what you are experiencing. You might want to check to see if there is an updated driver for the RealTek card, perhaps this issue has been reported by others...
