Sound is crackling

[XFi6]

Unfortunately, syncing the audio to the game means restricting the game to 60VI/s. The frame limiter will hence not work (so you can't press F4 to fast forward through cutscenes, etc)

After all of my experience, I say that the best audio quality without having to sync the audio to the game is to use:

• Azimer's HLE Audio WIP II, and
• The RSP plugin by Hacktarux and the Mupen64Plus team, included with the Windows build of Mupen64Plus (here's the link)

Even still, there are minor crackles. To nearly completely eliminate all crackling, again without having to sync the audio to the game, you would need to use this older RSP plugin by Hacktarux. But that older RSP plugin results in slightly fuzzy audio quality since it dates back to a while back.

The previous RSP plugin I listed above (the one in Mupen64Plus) results in, humanly, the same quality as the default Project64 one (on a stereo speaker setup; I don't know about 5.1 or 7.1 surround), but with better performance and less crackles.

Then do what I said. Use: http://www.emutalk.net/showthread.ph...520#post273520

And also use the RSP plugin packaged with Mupen64Plus:

schibo's audio engine based on UltraHLE supplied with 1964 has decent sound with Hacktarux's plugin, but that was an old topic.

Azimer's plugin uses "dynamic audio synching". Jabo's sound plugin forces framerate to match, but I've still seen games with auto audio sync issues run faster with the speed limiter off with the extra sync option checked. It will also cause certain games to hang, but zilmar fixed the core's end for that.

Which is why i said an adjustable buffer, the crackling will be solved via adjusting this to suite the sound card used.

i don't get any crackling on my SB Live card because its got a decent DSP and hardware buffering.
