Sound jumping/stuttering in MAME, at the expense of smooth gameplay.
10/19/14 12:54 PM


Okay, so I understand that, to get the *sound* perfect, you *must* have Frame skipping set to automatic within the Advanced tab (mameui64).
Not doing this means that the sound occasionally repeats itself as if stuttering.

To get *gameplay* perfect (smooth scrolling), the 'Frame skipping Automatic' must be unchecked.

However, this means that games which should be mirror-smooth (E.g. Scramble), aren't.
Thus we have an impossible situation.
Either perfect sound or perfect gameplay.

From previous posts, the sound used to be perfect with frame skipping unchecked and triple buffering on, but was changed deliberately to allow sound to occur when it liked - but required frame skipping set to to automatic.

What I really want is:
Triple buffering checked
Frame skipping automatic unchecked.

I have tried various combinations with the other sync options but none of them work.

Does anyone have a solution to get perfect gameplay and perfect sound?

Thanks


God, I miss those dark, musty arcades ....
