Project 64 + HDMI audio = bad

[kyledoggy]

Okay,

I have been fussing with Project 64 2.0.0.14 and it's issues with producing no audio when I use HDMI audio to my TV. Basically what happens is when I plug in the HDMI cable and run the video+audio through it, my games become very slow and I get no audio. Now, if I hook up an 3.5mm audio jack from my PC to my TV, everything works perfectly fine.

I am able to run the HDMI audio in all of my other emulators except for Project 64. I have tried a bunch of different settings, different audio plugins, and nothing seems to work. Has anyone had this problem and can anyone shed any light on what is going on here?

Thanks!

There are several ways to get surround sound working.

Using Jabo's Direct Sound:
Assuming you are running Windows 7 or Windows Vista, make sure that you turn on '"Virtual Surround" in the Playback Devices audio settings for the device that is using HDMI to connect to a stereo receiver, and then set your stereo receiver to NeoDTS6 or Dolby Prologic II.


Using Shunyuan's HLE Audio:
Take the steps above and then configure PJ64 to use HLE Audio with one of the two packed in RSP plugins...If you get an error on one, use the other. Then, in the audio configuration settings for Shunyuan's HLE Audio...check "Direct Sound hardware acceleration", "stereo", "XAudio2 Upmix", and the Audio Driver to "XAudio2"...and set the sound quality to what you may prefer. The N64 could natively do DVD quality sound so it would be safe to set the sample rate to 24Bit at 48KHz. Also be sure to check "Use High Level Audio" in the Plugin Selection screen.

Keep in mind that I am using an integrated audio chip-set and an RCA Digital Coaxial cable to hook my computer up to my stereo receiver.

I've tried all the native plugins that came with the Project 64 program.

No, the N64 could barely do 64 kbps audio at 44.1 KHz, much less DVD quality
