Jim Power & 8.22r2

mtb · 19 November 2002, 13:26

I have tried a bit and with only few games winuae 8.22r2.

The problem i have noticed is that with Jim Power there is something wrong with sound on my pc ( if it is interesting, i am using a cheap c-media card - till now no problem with such card ).

In fact, i load the game, i start to play and a lot of times the sound stop or scratch, repeat a bit of it and then restart - a bit difficult for me to explain it in english.
Examples of what i mean: if you are listening to a cd that is not readed correcly at the first try, if you have an portable cd reader without the so called antishock and you run.
And it happens only for the audio output, i have tried to rec the sound with the pcm codec and it's all recorded correclty, but it's at the same time played back uncorrectly.

I believed it was caused by the use primary DirectSoundBuffer "button" on the sound options, but it wasn't.
So i have tried modifying the sound buffer ( nothing changes ), sound driver lag compensation , trying mono, stereo, mixed, interpolation and 11Khz - 44Khz.
Results: nothing change.

Is there someone that can try if it's only my problem?

I have said i think it's not a sound card problem: with linux uae 8.22 i've no problems at all.

Thanx id adv.

edit: with 8.22r1 the sound was ok

Works fine here m8,

Sound is perfect, running at a nice 51 fpss, no choppiness, breaking up or anything...

Attached is the config I used..
