Hi... I need some help again....
I just got Metal Gear Solid and when I play it runs fine. Except when I reach areas with cutscenes and radio dialog.... the audio becomes a bit choppy and ever last few words is repeated... it would be like this, for example...
"Snake there it is... it is...
Oh I see it... see it..."

I even tried making it run off an .ISO but no change....

Here are the plugins I'm using:

use ePSXe 1.5.2, 1.6.0 has audio issues with MGS. also try using Eternal SPU 1.41 and try the -cdtiming command line switch.

ok in Peops Dsoud, try using 2 2 2 2, and only the FIRST checkbox under misc.

for OGL, upgrade to 1.75, and make sure the PC FPS calc special fix is checked.

Ok here is how I fixed the audio issue thanks to you guys!
I'm running ePSXe v.1.5.2
with audio plugin Eternal SPU 1.41 with "SPU IRQ - Wait CPU action" ticked
with video plugin Pete's 1.72 OpenGL with settings seen above

I tried getting Pete's 1.75 version of the OpenGL plugin, but that slowed down my game... so I left my plugin to 1.72...

Thanks Yeloazndevil and hushypushy for your help...

However I now have another issue that I didn't realize/forgot I had...
When it goes to a video cutscene I can't see anything... there's just lines going up the screen... I hear audio and I can tell there's an image if you look closely at the lines... how do I solve this problem for MGS?
Thanks again for all the help....
