Then they get off their ***** and fix things, because one thing apple cannot stand is public humiliation. The engineer who worked on the chip is probably gone by now, and Apple doesn't fix problems unless thousands make a stink. With its easy-to-use interface, you can quickly find and play your favorite movies and TV shows, without having to search through a cluttered interface. It's a software error in the code that runs the low level chip. Popcorn is a media player for Mac that offers a unique and intuitive way to enjoy your media files. ![]() Noise hurts your ear, and i didn't buy fancy Gelelec Studio Monitors to hear crackling!Īll the superstition about setting the time automatically doesn't sound plausible to me. ![]() So obnoxious of an error for those of us who can still hear. It staggers my mind that Apple has had this bug since 2018 probably, and they just don't care enough to fix it. So it is a bug in the firmware for the custom apple audio chip which is in every MacMini and Laptop (they use the same custom Apple chips). Killing the coreaudio process, which auto respawns almost immediately clears the problem. The crackling stops when the audio stream stops, after a few second delay, when the audio unit goes to sleep (to save power). So this means that the noise is after the audio amplifier in the chain. The crackles are fixed in volume and don't go up as you increase the volume. You can tell it is a firmware problem in the Apple audio unit, because if you play music very softly you will hear the crackles. I have a MacMini 2018, and am running 10.14.6.
