Audio Cut-Out

[Jonathan McLeod]

My surround sound system (Pioneer VSX 534) has a slight audio cut-out whenever you start playing a new film/episode. It only lasts for perhaps less than a second, so hasn't really been a problem as most programs have some form of title/credits/logos/etc that mean it doesn't really matter.

However, the last few weeks I've been re-watching Mr Robot on Blu-ray and it has a tendency of having episodes cold-open straight into content, and usually dialogue right at the start and I've found myself missing the first word or so and sometimes having to skip back to the start of the chapter.

Anyone any ideas how to avoid this cut-out? I'm guessing it's maybe some handshake delay between the blu-ray player and receiver?
