**App version** : 3.4.1 (8c2d641ba) (Google Play)
**Android version** : 14
**Device model** : Samsung Galaxy S23
**Expected behaviour** : Episode stream does not stop and skip forward immediately. There are no cut parts of the episode.
**Current behaviour** : At 19:39 in Lore Legends episode 32 (RSS feed: [Lore](https://feeds.libsyn.com/65267/rss)), the audio immediately cuts and skips to another point in the episode. In this case, the speaker was talking and got cut off mid sentence, then the episode played music. I was streaming the episode.
I found it odd and went on the Lore podcast site and played the episode there. There wasn’t any cut and the audio played fine.
I decided to download the episode hoping the problem would fix itself. Downloading did solve this problem; there was no cut. However this is a cumbersome solution since I don’t want to download every episode I listen to.
**First occurred** : Today
**Steps to reproduce** :
1. Stream episode as normal, audio cuts
2. Check original site for audio and correct RSS feed
3. Download episode, problem fixed
4. Delete download and stream
5. Problem comes back
**Environment** : Untoggled Auto Downloads (for a long while). I don’t think this has any effect on this issue.
**Stacktrace/Logcat** :
```auto

The same issue is tracked elsewhere. To keep the discussion in one place, I’ll lock this forum thread. Please follow this thread for updates: [Podcasts skipping back and over content during stream](https://forum.antennapod.org/t/podcasts-skipping-back-and-over-content-during-stream/4911)
