Crackling audio and Stuttering Video
I have been playing SWTOR since release and only with in the past couple of weeks I have encountered this problem. My video, every few seconds, will drop in frame rate briefly, as if I am missing ...

@CipherChain Still nothing...
@Grashnazraz@proxos666 Bump again to bring back up to the top. Still No Fix.
Started an imperial agent. Still having crackling audio and stuttering video.
@Grashnazraz@proxos666Bumping this again after a while. Figured someone has had some time to look into things at this point. This issue is too prevalent for me now, it happens everywhere in game , its making it very difficult to enjoy. And because of that, i am playing less and less and even thinking about pulling my sub until I can find a fix, though I would really not want to.
Have you had a look at the temps of the CPU and GPU at all with say hwinfo ?
Just to cover all things , it is worth checking based on this post
So that post suggests cleaning out your rig, which I did shortly before this problem came up and shortly after.
Started to play this week and just today the crackling bug has happenend. It's rather annoying and I don't understand why it wasn't repaired already. Since I was searching for solution I've discovered that this issue is quite old and common. Now I'm not sure if subscribing was good idea.
I started playing the game three days ago and was really pleased with the experience so far and even considered subscribing. The issue occurred today and I've spent the last few hours trying out most of the fixes for it found online, sadly without luck. It turns out that the issue is quite old, like someone above me mentioned, but there is still not a known fix. I'm playing from old Lenovo G580 Laptop on medium-low settings and max resolution. I didn't have any FPS or sound issues until today and I haven't changed any of the in-game preferences.
I stopped playing the game and cancelled my sub about two years back when this bug hit me and saw no repairs in sight.
I figured with the release of the new expansion they'd have fixed it and maybe patched out the issue.
Booted up the game today and surprise the bug is back and worse than ever.
I've tried everything suggested in this posting [and most of the older ones] and even pulled out a different laptop to try and run the game [to no avail as the bug reared it's head on that one as well]
Glad to see that after nearly five years of this bug being reported there has yet to be a fix. LINK
Also supplying the DxDiag on the system I played this on the most.
