Audio quality 0.1.7

[Sebbo401]

For some reason it seems like the audio quality is worse then in the versions before.

Does not sound like the crisp CD in the previous version.

Checked if single bin files, converted with CDmage could cause the problem - but same sound problems with multi bin files and every game I tested so far:

Rondo of Blood Ys Nexzr Ginga Fukei Densetsu Sapphire

Yeah, this definitely took a regression hit with 0.1.7, as I primarily use this as a CD player for music. Can't believe such a regression would be released like this without anyone developing it to catch it first.

maybe you should write it yourself then, dude.

I set the audio timer as low as possible, makes it way better, but still some cracking in the audio.

Can confirm, sound is messed up in this version. Might be why my updater skipped over this update despite it being out for a week.

I just updated, same problem here. Things worked great on 0.1.6. Now audio is weird, and my game controls freak out and won't respond when I load a CD Engine game. The only way to fix this is to go into the menu and choose to load a new ISO, once doing that, the controls stop spazzing and they work correctly. I had read about audio issues, but I decided to update anyway against my better judgment.

Hi, I could stop the controller problems by disabling the 6 button controller for 3 button games in the core settings.

Also setting the audio timer to as low as possible made the sound way better - not perfect, but way better.

Thanks, yeah, I noticed the 6 button fix thing right when you posted. A shame about the audio. I'll just hang on 0.1.6 until the next update. I don't seem to have any problems on that one.

It's been months, half the year has gone by without a fix to the audio regressions. Seems they don't want to fix the core.

Hi! You can just use an older version of the core or set the audio timer as low as possible. This made the sound way better for me.

have you considered fixing it yourself?

This seems to improve it for me too, Thanks a lot!

Not perfect but much better :)
