Stereo sound problem

andreas · 26 March 2004, 19:14

Sound is perfect in Mono, but not in Stereo.
Tested with highly complex Pinball Fantasies intro tune and either Emulated or 100% accurate setting.

I'll try to describe the problem as precisely as possible.

Sound is now EXTREMELY choppy in stereo mode, no matter what buffer you set. It's always perfect in Mono.
Important: if you crank up that buffer slider and/or turn off graphics update with ScrollLock, you get same choppiness, which suggests that it's *probably* not a PC speed or sound buffer issue.

[fixed]
Sorted it out!!

With my freshly installed system, I have to set the sound buffer LOWER than before (setting 2 or 3) and all of a sudden, sound is perfect in stereo, too!

If I set it too HIGH (>= 4), sound chops like hell!
It used to be like this: if chops occurred, buffer had to be cranked up a bit to fix the chops.
Now, with my system, it's vice-versa. Heheh!

WinUAE is simply a piece of modern mystery.
