TCL TV qm5k BT clips are available for purchase.
I'm experiencing issues with my TCL QM5k device, where everything connected via BT clips and crackles poorly during intense scenes. Even at lower volumes it clips, suggesting a potential line-level problem. I've checked the BT connection and overall volume settings, but nothing else works. The issue isn't present on the TV speakers. I plan to report this for the sub-forum.
The TCL QM75 is a display device? Your comment doesn't quite fit. First, I don't know of any computer monitor using Bluetooth for audio while HDMI or DP handles the video.
Please clarify your configuration details so I can better understand the process. Thanks!
It's actually quite simple—it's a TV linked through BT, either to headphones or a DAC. Both show the same problem. The TV model is a TCL QM5k 75-inch. At half volume, audio clips when loud sounds occur, causing crackling or popping. This doesn't happen with regular speakers, so likely the signal quality is too high. There don’t seem to be any settings to adjust, but I thought it might help to ask someone for advice.
It might be hitting the boundaries of the codec in use. Are you aware of the specific one? Bt connections involve a mix of various standards.
Thanks for the feedback. Bluetooth connections aren't always stable and can face challenges due to interference or codec limitations. As mentioned before, some issues might stem from the Bluetooth codec itself. If that's the case, adjusting settings like volume reduction or disabling certain sound processing features on your TV could help. Regarding interference, Bluetooth operates on the 2.4 GHz band, so devices such as routers, microwaves, and large metal objects can disrupt the signal. Turning off Wi-Fi on your TV and computer might resolve the problem. If you're using Google TV, you may be able to modify audio settings through its app. Another option is to use a Bluetooth transmitter compatible with your TV, which typically supports various outputs like TOSLINK, SPDIF, 3.5 mm, or RCA. It usually costs around $20. Good luck!
