Overclocking should fix the original emulator problems, it may not be necessary to switch emulators.

This is what I did and it improved sound issues dramatically.

Yeah, go Turbo and it works fantastic. Just grab some heat sinks off Amazon first.

I just installed a fresh copy of the retropie 2.2 image. Expanded the disk space, shared mem set to 384, and went turbo. Never made any changes with es_systems.cfg then launched emulationstation. The problem with the ‘crackling’ sound is still there… Later, I’m going to again try switching to a different emulator..

I’m interested to see if pisnes works for you. I haven’t had any luck yet in the new or old version.

I’ve heard of some people downloading the copy off the Internet and overwriting the copy in /opt/retropie/emulators/pisnes. This used to be needed in 1.X for me, at least some versions. However pisnes works great in 2.X for me.

Here are the steps:

cd /opt/retropie/emulators/pisnes
cp snes9x.cfg snes9x.cfg.bak
wget http://pisnes.googlecode.com/git/pisnes.zip
unzip pisnes.zip

I just wanted to understand this.. The steps you gave are actually commands that one should input in the command prompt prompt right (f4 while in the emulationstation)? I was just asking because there’s an ‘unzip’ entry there.. Sorry.. so noob of me..

Ok, so I managed to get to es_systems.cfg and found out that you really cant straight away switch to a folder within a folder.. I don’t know but cd /folder1/folder2/targetfolder does not work for me.. I had to cd /folder1 then cd /folder2 etc…

Anyway, I edited es_systems.cfg by using the “sudo nano” command (thanks google) and did these lines exactly as you see here (after installing pisnes though the source script in retropie_setup.sh):

<system>
<fullname>Super Nintendo</fullname>
<name>snes</name>
<path>~/RetroPie/roms/snes</path>
<extension>.smc .sfc .fig .swc .SMC .SFC .FIG .SWC</extension>
<command>/opt/retropie/emulators/pisnes/snes9x %ROM%</command>
<platform>snes</platform>
<theme>snes</theme>
</system>

I started emulationstation after a reboot and there seems to be no change at all with the performance of snes.. Am I supposed to see PISNES anywhere?? or I guess the question is, how do I know that I have changed emulators already?

Thank a bunch guys! will try it out when I get home from work and update this thread! :)
