XMC-1 Audio dropouts NES Classic

[ScudDawg]

Hello, I recently got an NES Classic and the audio drops out every few seconds for a second or so when connected to my XMC-1. I have the lastest firmware on my unit and run Directv, an Oppo 4k blu ray player, and Roku Ultra with no issues. I hooked the Nintendo to a TV in my house and the audio works perfectly with no dropouts. Is there a setting I should try with the XMC-1 that would prevent this? It makes the system unbearable and I can hear my speakers making a slight popping sound when this happens. I bought the NES Classic with full intention of running it in my living room on my theater system.

I am having the same issue- no solution that works yet

Here is my thread with the exact same issue.

Folks, this seems to be an issue with the NES hardware, not the XMC-1. See HERE for more details. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a viable solution...

I was able to 'fix' or at least work around this by using an HDMI audio extractor like so: amzn.to/2rtbyyN
I then take the analog out and feed it to the XMC-1.

I'm not sure why the XMC-1 can't do this, but at least I found a way to integrate this. Hopefully this helps someone else.
