Hello,
when playing for example R-Type Delta, the graphics and Sound effects are great. However the Music (which is XA Audio) is jittering (i.e. playing faster and slower, alternating very quick making it sound as if its played on a Walkman with dying batteries)).
So my question is: What component is responsible for good XA Audio play?
Is it that
a) ePSXe has some compatibility issues with XA audio and I have to wait for new versions,
b) XA Audio is dependent on CD speed (since the PSX has a 2x CD (I think) and my CD Rom can't be slowed down (I tried "CD Bremse" or "CD Throttle" and I get the message, that my Pioneer DVD can't be slowed down), so ePSXe tries its best to time the streaming audio from the faster CD to the MPEG or game?
c) my PC is still to slow (I recently upgraded from my old P III 450 to an Athlon XP 1800+) to decode XA correctly...
or d) I'm too stupid to configure ePSXe correctly (however, what can I do wrong if there is only a checkmark next to "Enable XA Audio" and using the ePSXe internal Audio?
By the way: I have to user Petes CD Plugin, since ePSXe won't find my CD Rom.
