Hi there, @user_sb78ug Thank you for reaching out! I do apologize for the trouble you are experiencing with your sound. To resolve audio and video out-of-sync issues with Xfinity On Demand, start by checking your TV's audio settings for an Audio Sync or Audio Delay option and adjusting it and also try rebooting your TV and cable box and checking for any app updates. If the problem persists, verify your internet connection, especially if using the Xfinity Stream app, and consider adjusting audio settings on your TV and cable box.-Richard

I have the same problem.  Audio is delayed relative to video.  Ads during stream are fine.  It happens on multiple devices. This seems to be a problem on the Xfinity side.  Please fix!

I have the same problem. I have narrowed it down to on-demand shows from premium channels. Support has been no help in resolving this issue. I have tried all suggestions. It has nothing to do with my modem, cable box or devices, WIFI or cellular service. The sound is significantly delayed EVEN WHEN I DOWNLOAD THE SHOW TO MY DEVICES. The same show is fine when watching through the cable boxes or my computer where I am accessing the latter via a browser. One TV has a cable box (works fine), and also now has Amazon Fire TV where the Xfinity Stream app has the issue. It also has the problem on all phones and tablets. It is the Xfinity Stream App!

I first noticed this when Xfinity had a free week of premium channels such as SHOWTIME. I have MGM+ as part of my service and that also has the same issue. I was trying to watch "The Institute". All other on-demand shows from non-premium channels work just fine. Watching the MGM+ channel live also has no issues.

Please at least acknowledge that this is a known issue and is being addressed. Who wants to pay for premium channels that you can't watch on-demand?

user_6gjsx7 We can certainly try and do an Account Refresh to see if there is some syncing issue on the backend. We don't see this complaint too often, so it appears to be fairly isolated at the moment. If you'd like us to try and Account Refresh, please send a Direct Message with your full name and address.

Same issue here.  Audio out of sync when watching shows through Xfinity stream app on fire TV cube.   Seems to get worse the further you get into the show being watched.  As mentioned in another post, interjected commercials are perfectly in sync.

I don’t see this issue with any other streaming apps only Xfinity.

I'm not sure how you can claim that this is an isolated incident that you don't see too often. Web searches brought up several instances of audio sync issues happening including a thread in this very community that is 3 years old https://forums.xfinity.com/conversations/xfinity-stream-app/audiovisual-out-of-syncdelay/647af257ae2d900d21ca11aa

I'm not interested in hearing about how sorry y'all are, I'm interested in fixing bugs in software. Send the repo, maybe I'll take a stab at it...

Audio cut out and out of sync audio has only been an issue with Xfinity stream. Never an issue with any other app ever. I have severe audio cut outs on every Apple device I have at exactly the same time. It’s getting worse. 2 updates were just pushed out on ipad and iphone over the last few days. Made the problem worse.
