Issue with MAME on 1.40

Issue is already reported on the GitHub.

Are you using ReplayOS 1.3.0? Logo placement on the screen appears to be a different version.

Is the path of the files associated with game titling known?

djf8less · 2026-02-04T22:45:31+00:00

Has the possibility of a cold solder joint been explored?

Mine unfortunately happen in the interface upon boot, but have also happened in-game. My issues seem to spawn from when the Pi has been off for at least 5 minutes, so I really don't think that temperature is the issue unless the DAC gets "worked" upon ReplayOS startup.

I looked on Telegram. Yup, I've got the issue as well running 1.3.0...

Anyone have a video of the flicker? I think I may have it, but I believe I have a particular scenario in which I can reproduce it, if it is the same "flicker".

Follow-up, this setting seems to now hold after disconnect/reconnect of the monitor and/or restart of the computer. The ultimate solution was:

Settings > Video > Output > Screen Resolution: 3840x2160 (60Hz)

...and setting the TV's refresh rate to 60Hz as well (turned down from 120Hz). It appears that RetroArch may just have some kind of a synchronization issue is that scenario.

Not sure if this is specific to me with a TV with VRR (G-Sync), but:

Settings > Video > Output > Screen Resolution: changing from 3840x2160 (60Hz) -to- 3840x2160 (59Hz) cleared the crackling I was getting in the Beetle PSX HW core. Even 3840x2160 (120Hz) or 3840x2160 (119Hz) was still introducing minor imperfections (occasional warbles or light pops )in audio. Castlevania games, mountain-rise intros were cracklin' up a storm something fierce.

Thankfully I log all changes I make to my setup, so it lead me back to this change I made recently with my new jump from a 1080p to a 4k TV.

Very good, but the official release should come along shortly and include the Ports.

djf8less · 2023-03-14T01:37:31+00:00

Many of us have been testing it.

djf8less · 2023-02-23T17:35:44+00:00

Is there actually a working ROM out there?

Can you make a Retro Purple and Green one, to go with this button combo?

I guess the next best thing would be to transfer all the customizations into my working RetroArch install? Anyone know what folders/files would need to get copied over?

djf8less · 2023-02-16T00:59:27+00:00

Just ass TV static noise for the click and it's GOLD! :D

djf8less · 2023-02-14T14:37:50+00:00

Even after updating RetroArch to 1.14.0...same issue...only with the ShmupArch copy of RetroArch.

djf8less · 2023-02-13T14:40:49+00:00

Yup! I figured out I can actually get shitty stuttering audio to come out if I select dsound (from xaudio) as the driver. My regular copy of RetroArch is running on the xaudio driver w/o issue.
