Audio does not sync properly in Xfinity Stream App using Firestick
My recorded programs using the Xfinity Stream app with my Firestick consistently does not have the audio synced with the video. I have to try to restart the Firestick multiple times a night to try getting this to work. Utterly unacceptable that there has been so many users with this same complaint and there is still no resolution. I never had this issue with YouTubeTV. If there is no resolution, I will have to look into switching back.

Hello, @user_e3b13f, I love the Stream app and use it every day, but I especially love recording my shows and watching them back on my weekend. I can see how annoying that audio sync issue would be, so I'm sorry that has been your experience. This is a known issue that our engineers are working to resolve, however; we have had some success with troubleshooting. Are you able to confirm if this issue is present on other devices while using the Stream app? Does this happen on your cable box as well?

Hi all, I am having the same issue. It used to be when this happened, I could shut everything off and back on, and it synced up. Not anymore. This is on the DVR box I have, with the X1 service. This is not happening on the X1 non-DVR box. Thank you!

@XfinityMarcos Just checking in. Has there been ANY work yet to resolve this issue? Is there any work around you guys can provide. Thus far, I have found that I can watch the On Demand versions of programs without audio issues, but then I have to watch commercials. I pay for this service so I don't have to watch commercials. Is there any way to turn the commercial requirement off for On Demand programs until you get your issues with Cloud DVR on Firestick resolved. I purchased Xfinity because I was told that your services worked for Firestick and this is clearly not the case right now. Please offer some kind of support. Thank you.

I am still having issues. I have now moved on to testing with a new Roku (bought specifically in the hopes it would fix all these issues). At first, it seemed better, but then I started having recorded programs freeze and then crash. I am also testing out the app on my Samsung TV. It is crazy how the Xfinity Stream app does not work seamlessly with any of these devices. I NEVER had any issues with YouTube TV and do not have these issues with any other streaming services. I am still hoping Xfinity can get a working app, because YouTube TV does not have all the channels I want. However, if you don't have an app that works, then it kind of forces users to drop the service.

I am not recording, but experiencing the sync problem watching live TV streaming using Roku. For example, tonight I'm watching Sunday night football and the video is getting further and further behind the audio. This issue started within the last 2 months.

That's because Amazon's hardware is cheap and total junk. Dump it and get a real streaming device. Been there done that, same issues as you!

Get an Apple TV, you'll never look back. Xfinity Stream app IS coming to the Apple TV this year! All the other streamers are total junk and not worth your money.

We are having the same issue with Xfinity Stream on Firestick. Other streaming apps do not have the same problem as Xfinity Stream. Tried all the different ways to reset the app. A new firestick also had the same issue. Is there an ETA on when this will be fixed and out of Beta?
