Sound cutting out

I have read almost all of the 117 comments about the sound cutting out and video glitching.  I too have this issue. I changed all cables, replaced dvr box twice, bought a new TV, Xfinity has been out twice and replaced wires to my house, and under my house. I still have the issue.

I never saw resolution to any of the 117 posts. Has anyone had this issue and got it fixed?

Hey there @Snorkiepetro do you mind linking the thread you are referring to so I can see exactly which issue you are having? Thank you!

I have no idea how to link a thread, but Xfinity has been out twice where they have replaced all the wires to my house and in my house. I have replaced the DVR twice. I have replaced my tv. The sound cuts out, and most of the time the tv will glitch. This all started after a temporary wire repair was performed because the neighbor shot it with a shotgun. Because it is intermittent, the tech has not been able to witness it. During periods of high wind it is more frequent. I read other posts very similar to mine, but none had resolution.

Do you know how to copy and paste? You would just do that with the address at the top of your screen for the other post you read which you said had a similar issue, however, if your issue is because your neighbor took a firearm to your equipment then I don't think there are many similar cases and that doesn't sound like something that we can repair without replacing everything. Please send a DM to XFINITY SUPPORT with your name and address so that I can get the proper ticket opened for this.

I think this is one of the threads, it appears that many customers have the same issue, but I cannot fond anything that tells you how to fix it.

And Xfinity assures me that the repair to the line does not affect my service.

Yep, we have it strangely doing it on one of our TV’s. Tried everything too!

Same here. Called to reset the box about 20 times so we can continue watching. Please post again if they resolve your issue.

Hello @Grumpy_. Sometimes when a box cuts out like that, the signal going into it, is not strong enough. This can be from old cable, damaged cable, or something going on with the main feed. If this continues, we would be more than happy to assist in getting this issue fixed for you.
