All GBA games lag #92

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.  Load GBA game
2.  Attempt to play    

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

From reading older and current issues it seems as if most users are able 
to play GBA games without lag, ie, normally.  Every game I try lags.  
Sprites move so slow that the game is unplayable.  Also, the music at 
times plays correctly, but mostly there is a "crackling" noise underneath 
the audio.  GB and GBC games run perfectly.        

Does this issue occur on VBA-M r781 (http://vba-
m.ngemu.com/vbam/vbacompiles/msvc2008/VisualBoyAdvance781.7z)? If so, 
please report the issue to the VBA-M forum.

No.

What version of the product are you using? On GameCube or Wii?

Gamecube

Please provide any additional information below.

I'm using the Datel SD Media Card.  I have it in the second memory card 
slot.  I'm running roms off of an SD Ultra II 2GB card (15MB/s).  I have 
tried to change the filter settings, but this doesn't help.

Most users are running on a Wii rather than a GameCube, so that might be why 
they are 
not getting the same lag. I don't have a GameCube to test on.

Are you running on PAL? Some people have reported problems with the sound when 
using 
PAL 50Hz (on a Wii), but no in PAL 60Hz.

This could have something to do with that on GameCube the ROM is being accessed 
constantly from your SD card. If it's having issues reading-writing fast enough 
from 
SD, that could be the issue. The other thing is, it'll never run full speed, 
and 
some games it will run slow, especially on GameCube. Either way, there's not 
much we 
can do for you here. Sorry.

Thanx all for the info.  It looks as if GBA emulation on the Wii is the way to 
go.  
How do the GBA roms perform on the Wii?  I'd like to get a Wii, but it looks 
like 
the NES, SNES, GEN, and GBA/GB/GC emulators don't output in 480p as they do on 
the 
Gamecube.  Does anyone know if they (developers) will be able to acheive this 
someday?

They output in 480p quite nicely right now. You just need a component video 
cord, 
and then set it to component on your Wii settings.
