I selected the option to “Update Retropie Setup Script” after running “sudo ./retropie_setup.sh” and I then rebooted. Is there anything else I needed to do to update that?

I’m at work currently, and can’t test any games out, but I do have SSH access to the box back at home to try things if needed.

Thanks for the replies. I do not think I am in need of an overlock that will void my warranty. I have attached a picture that shows how much CPU and RAM is being used during a cinematic which has crackles and pops in the sound. The video never lags, just the sound has issues.

I had just recompiled my system the day before yesterday. I’ll try the update again just in case.

I am also experiencing the same type of issues with most PSX games. I have nearly the exact same config as neighbourhood nerd with a new PI2.

– I’ve tried changing the audio codecs even with very little difference.
– Tried changing the audio bitrate
– Tried changing options in rgui in game to find differences
– Setting process priority to retroarch process
– Other things that were mentioned in the post above

The best I got was less noise, but sometimes the audio would just drop completely. Looking at top process tree from inside of my SSH connection when playing a game shows not that much processor being used, but still no matter what I try, I get crackly sound – only on PSX games. Some are better than others. One of the worst is the Legend of Dragoon during cutscenes and during dragoon transformations. Final Fantasy VII seems to be working pretty solid though.

Does anyone have best settings for sound? If so, please share!
