Audio Problems in Secret of Mana / Chrono Trigger with overclocking #287

Open Papermanzero opened 1 year ago

The audio is not working in Chrono Trigger or it has issues like in secret of mana. Latest core on windows is used.

the issue occurs only if you enable the light overclocking. In comparison to bsnes the overclocking works fine (up to 20%) with almost all games

I believe bsnes uses a different method of overclocking (just makes vblank last longer, IIRC), which is more stable/tolerated by games.

Overclocking, in general, is a sort of 'all bets are off' situation where anything can break at any time, so I wouldn't expect much action on this unless it's to switch the overclocking over to the bsnes strategy altogether.

@Papermanzero Can you confirm whether the issues in question only happen if you have the overclocking option already active when starting the game? Based on my testing, this type of problem should not come up if you have the overclock disabled by default and then activate it only after you launched the desired piece of content.

If this the case and my observations are confirmed, I might be able to submit a fix shortly.

I can confirm. This issue happens if overclocking is enabled by default
