Apparently, I've had one issue with FF7 when it's being emulated on ePSXe. It's regarding music playback. Apparently, the music plays much slower than the FF7 OST that's available on this site, and right now the only way to fix this problem is to set the FPS rate to 65, which only affects gameplay, but not MDECs. I'd like to know how I can fix this problem with a more appropriate way.

Just so you know, I've already tested the game with Connectix's VGS, and the music works correctly (except for sound effects).

Configuration:

P3 750 mHz
256 MB of RAM
Pretty good CD-ROM drive, already tested in Image and CD formats
S3 Savage MX w/ 8 MB

Plugin Selection:
Pete's Soft GPU 1.54
Eternal's SPU 1.1
Pete's CDR/ASPI Plugin 1.1

I think there isn't another way to get it to play normally without setting the FPS to 65. You might as well use VGS if you really really want the correct speed.

This won't fix your prob but you're using a pretty old version of Pete's CDR-Plugin (1.7 is the actual one). Just wanted to say that.

Yep.. There is no fix for this problem in FF7 at the moment.. Timing problems and all.. Hopefully a future versions of epsxe will fix this and a few other timing problems in other games..

I play FF7 at 70 fps.. The music is too slow at 60..

As I stated in the other thread, I have none of these problems... of course, the music might be faster and I just don't know about it, but it sound fine to me.

Pete's OGL 1.54
Eternal 1.1

You said you tried making an ISO, right?

Try playing the game on a real psx and then play the game on epsxe and you will notice that the music is slower than the framerate..

Does this occur in VGS also? The sound speed is the same, here.

VGS seems to play the music at the correct speed.. But epsxe doesn't.. Try playing it on VGS then on epsxe..

I didn't notice the difference. I'll try that.

Funny, I never noticed the music was slower but now that I think about it it makes sense... ya see in the opening fmv the music is supposed to get real loud just as the logo dashes across the screen but its always a few seconds late with epsxe even though the framerate looks fine.

Available on this site?
Do you mean on NGEmu?
Where?
I guess you meant another site.
