Distorted sound on Youtube Yoga 14"
Distorted sound on Youtube Yoga 14"
I am having a strange problem on a 14" Yoga
Model 20DM009GUS Core i5, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD
When playing YouTube videos and some other video streaming, you will hear a buzzing/digital distortion during certain passages. I have done some research, and tried forcing HTML5 instead of flash. I have also changed some settings in the sound control panel, to no avail. This PC has a Dolby Digital sound enhancement app, and the problem persists with or without using that app.
If I download the YouTube file, the downloaded file plays without the distortion.
Has anyone had a similar issue, and found a fix?

Re: Distorted sound on Youtube Yoga 14"
As an update, I've tried updating drivers, and even getting new drivers from the realtek website. That did not help.
I know that this is not a very popular model, but I am wondering if anyone has seen this problem.

Does this also happen if you take it to e.g. McDonalds or Starbucks?
If not, check your router at home.

I am pretty certain that this is not router related. 15ms ping, 90Mbps down, 12Mbps up.
It's weird that the downloads are fine, but youtube itself has the weird stuttering/buzzing and distortion.

Well- I think I have solved it. Updating the Audio drives had no impact, but... updating the Video/Graphics drivers seems to have solved the issue. Weird.
By the way the Lenovo updater did not find these. I just went into device manager and updated all of the Video stuff.
Odd, but is seems to have worked.

Re: Distorted sound on Youtube Yoga 14"
I think the reason was that Youtube has dumped Flash for HTML5.

So after a few days of use... the issue is much better, but I'm still getting this sometimes.RealBlackStuff wrote:I think the reason was that Youtube has dumped Flash for HTML5.

Your post indicates that HTML5 may be the issue. Can you expand on that? Is there a better solve?
I don't have this issue at all when playing on my Vizio TV app, or my iPad, or my iPhone.
Thanks.

Re: Distorted sound on Youtube Yoga 14"
I finally did some more digging... Windows 10 was slowing down the processor in my power scheme. I reset all of that, and now it's fine.
