Choppy audio on gens-qt4 (Windows 7) #58

Open wyrex opened 8 years ago

wyrex commented 8 years ago

Hi. I tried to build gens and got it work with MSVC 2010 and NMake (other msvc toolsets fail and can't compile in visual studio because starscream fails). It seems to work otherwise well but sounds lag badly in Qt GUI, in SDL it works normally. It might be just my version, or should this happen with https://github.com/GerbilSoft/gens-gs-ii/commit/a1b633b2e52622ebcc6a2624b43356122c12e8b4 ?

This is a known issue. PortAudio is apparently rather awful, and my sound code in the Qt build is a mess.

I mostly started the SDL build to get video/audio sync working; sometime after the initial tech preview (which should be soon, hopefully...), I'll be backporting the improved code to the Qt4 frontend.

Not sure about the SoundMgr issues; I'll take a look at that later.
