Thanks guys! I’ll give those a shot. Mac here, so I’ll try the Apple Pi Baker.

The problem is that it isn’t dependent on which emulator I pick. SNES, Genesis, anything and switching the emulator per system used, doesn’t seem to change the situation. Still sound dropping every dozen seconds or so for a second.

[emoni]

I didn’t know you could switch the audio driver actually… how did you do that?

[emoni]

Thought about it, but I heard that it was too slow and inefficient to be worthwhile.

[emoni]

Still the same problem and even with different emulators it isn’t changing. Not sure what is up, but can’t find a solution :(

[emoni]

Is this even within the realm of RetroPie?

[emoni]

Could you be opening it in another emulator by accident?

[emoni]

I found, after a recommendation from another member, that if you change the emulator used by pressing x or m at start up, it can have a huge difference in performance compared to the default for that one rom.

[emoni]

Odd… okay I guess I’m the only one.

[emoni]

_thanks all. I will try getting rid of the gamits.xml files

[emoni]

Was just trying to clean the file structure really :P Wasn’t realyl necessary to delete those directories I guess.

I guess the calls to those lists are in the es_systems.cfg?

[emoni]

Switched the emulator, seems that the default has some very weird bug. Others work fine, but the default sets you to level 0 at the start, and you can’t ever even start the first stage.

So odd. thanks for the help all!

Default Retropie Emulator

Confused… I’m playing the U.S. Version

However, I am now running into problems with the Pi freezing lots… Hmmm nothing but puzzles

[emoni]

Changing to PocketSnes helped, but the sound still sounds crackly…

PS: Just found out if you wait on the map screen for a while in Star Fox there is a falling start that shoots across. Neat.

Yea, there seems to be no problem with it from the videos I saw running it as default. I have the most uptodate Pi software, but not sure about RetroPie. Just downloaded a few days ago from the site from the Pi. Is there a way to run an update check?

I almost wondered if something is wrong with the Pi since there was such a difference. That’s why I checked to make sure I had a Pi 2 but it does indeed say that I do.

[emoni]

Oh? A different emulator? I’ll have to try this… Thanks all.

It didn’t look like they were using pocket SNES, but maybe that’s it. Worth a shot!

Thanks!
