PCSX2 problem (bato30)

Syncon

Hello, a question with the psx2 emulator sometimes slows down the sound and the game, do you know how to prevent this? Pc requirements more than good

Thank you

Syncon Did you enable your GPU? Maybe that´s the reason. It works even better in this new version than before. at least for me.
Yesterday I was playing SOTC. In previous versions of Batocera I was unable to even play above 20fps. Now works flawlessly in 60hz.

When you are using a Nvidia Graphics Card, and you activated nvidia drivers (by removing the # in front of the line #nvidia-driver=true" of the recalbox-boot.conf file)
Then open system settings » information, and look for the OPENGL line. Should say: “4.6.0 NVIDIA 4XX.XX” or something like that (so there must be something with “NVIDIA”). Otherwise the drivers are not activated correctly or your card is not supported by the driver.

How to do it:
You can do it from Xterminal in apps within file explorer (f1)
mount -o remount,rw /boot
nano /boot/recalbox-boot.conf
<remove the leading # from the nvidia-driver=true line>
reboot

yes nvidia driver activated everything, I switched from OpenGL to software in the emulator settings then I had the sound and game problems .. now I switched back to OpenGL it would run really perfectly only because I sometimes have very short black screens what can that do be??

Syncon

if you know a solution for me I would be very happy or about your emulator settings. Now runs really great, almost perfect, only these short black screens are annoying. My setup is actually pretty good! Intel core i5 vpro 6500, 16gb ram 1tb ssd Gigabyte GTX 1050 4G

what do you mean by short black screens?
on which games do they appear and when? every game or only certain ones?

Syncon

So I play a lot of SSX Tricky other games unfortunately not yet tested! Yes, it is so that when I set the emulator to software that the blackscreen disappear but sometimes sound & the game itself slows down for a few seconds! With OpenGL everything would run perfectly just you play for 3 minutes, then all at once a completely black screen for 3 seconds, then it works again and that is sometimes more and sometimes less repeated

Syncon Maybe something related to the TV.
In some cases I´ve seen that setting the HDMI Control (CEC) to OFF, fixes this kind of blackouts. Look into the settings menu in your TV/Monitor, find that option and test it.
