TCM has been having audio problems for months now. Spectrum tech wasn't helpful. Said Spectrum was aware of the problem but didn't know where the audio breakup was occurring. Have other members in other locations experienced this on TCM? The audio problem cleared up for a few weeks but was back again this past Saturday. This problem is not happening on any other channel.
 
I'd guess that TCM is having a problem getting an uninterrupted feed to Spectrum's head end, or there are encoding errors that the set top boxes can't resolve well. After a brief web search, yes other people are having this issue, for years.
 
Same thing was happening here only on Court TV channel. I put an antenna on our smart TV, which it wouldn't recognize for some reason, and the audio cleared up. Probably coincidence, but who knows.
I blame it on solar storms affecting the source.
