I was so happy until i discovered im already at 60hz I am very sad i spent so long setting retroarch up so depressed.
Glad it's resolved, but feeling silly I didn't think of it *before* going down a rabbit hole that led me to screw up all my Retroarch settings. It must have been that my previous TV had this refresh rate? I'm really not sure honestly. Also, the latest standalone version is 2.1.3 while the RetroArch core seems to be based on the older 2.1.0 version from 2013. So they are not exclusive libretro core issues. The issue was brought up here on the github page for the core- I commented on the issue as well. Someone else noticed this as well, but j-selby believed the problem to be caused by a slow PC. Citra standalone generally runs between 2 to 4 times as fast as the core. Setting this to 60 Hertz resolved the problem. Most of these issues (if not all) apply to the standalone emulator which hasn't been updated since 2014 IIRC. I’ve been trying out the Citra core in Retroarch and noticed some severe speed issues not present in the standalone emulator. I'm on Windows 10, I just right clicked on the desktop and went to Display Settings > Display Adapter Properties > Monitor tab, and noticed the refresh rate was set to 29 Hertz (?). I also noticed this was happening with a few other emulators, but strangely not with Mame or Windows games and a few other emulators.Īnyways to make a long story short, I wasted a few hours pulling out my hair and going backwards in config on several portions of the system only to find that the refresh rate on my PC had changed when connecting to the new TV.
#Retroarch emulator slow software
I then thought maybe I have some system issues and began uninstalling any recent software to check it again but no change. Since I had been playing other games without any issues, I initially thought there was something wrong with Retroarch so I installed a clean version, but this didn't fix anything.
Then I launched a few games from other emulators that use Retroarch and everything was performing super slow and choppy, audio was stuttering at 1/2 speed.
I launched into my Windows games folder and played some, everything was working great. I bought a new Samsung TV over the weekend and hooked up my PC running Launchbox via HDMI, and everything was working fine. Just wanted to share a scenario I ran into and what fixed it, in case it helps anyone else.
