      @pjft thanks! I did do the audio changes through the retropie menus in ES, no luck there. I will continue to test on that TV, but now I know it is a tv issue, it will be a low priority.

      The theme is coming along well! I have an update planned for this evening when I get a chance. I have it in 16:9 format now. Some nice improvements and some slight modifications that aren't as nice as the original 4:3, but it looks nice and is running more smoothly.

      Another benefit I found with the OMX player is that omx will hold the original format of videos, while vlc won't. Running the ES build with screenscaver we can't use maxSize but it doesn't matter, omx holds the ratio by default. Vlc will stretch the videos.

      @Floob @NinjaX567 after one of the new updates i no longer get audio in dreamcast either. Its only in dreamcast. I havent tried composite audio to see if it works on it.

      @Freakadude do what @Syntaxerror999 said to do for hdmi audio. For audio through the jack you need to go into the retropie menu on the emulationstation menu and go into audio and switch from hdmi to 3.5mm jack

      From the command prompt

      List all USB devices
      lsusb

      cat /proc/asound/modules

      Set "card #1" as the default audio device
      sudo nano /etc/asound.conf

      pcm.!default { type hw card 1 } ctl.!default { type hw card 1 }

      Disable HDMI audio
      sudo nano /boot/config.txt

      #hdmi_drive = 2

      @FoxWordsmith7 It's not that people are unwilling to help, but that your first post did not provide the required info as described in this link (linked at the top of the forum).

      Also, you said you read one post about audio. Have you read the wiki pages? You did not say anything about reviewing the documentation. Most of the answers to questions are there. You can also search for specifics about Pi Zero performance. For example, I searched for just that and found an interesting thread about overclocking to improve NES and SNES performance on a Zero.

      The bottom line is that almost nobody on here has the same configuration, and to make matters worse for you, nobody knows anything about your configuration because you have not provided the details. It sounds like you are using a Pi Zero, but we don't know what controllers you have, what version of RetroPie you installed, whether you installed it via the script or loaded an image, what emulator you are using, and so on and so on.

      Finally, the Raspberry Pi is a learning platform. Not everything you do on the device will have a "walk through". Some really great videos have been made by the community that can be adequate for some people, but you should assume that if you pursue this you will likely become a technical person when it comes to setting up the Pi, especially if you start tweaking performance with overclocking.

      You can find a volume setting both in the RetroPie configuration and in Emulation Station itself by accessing the Main Menu (Start), then Sound Settings.

      @Ghost-Note I ran into this audio issue too for Reicast emulator. I dug into this issue this weekend and changed the following Reicast configuration files to resolve my Alysa driver related issue. Hope this helps!~

      Located in: /opt/retropie/configs/dreamcast There's 2 config files i.e. (emulators.cfg, emu.cfg) I recommend making backups those before proceeding.

      In "emu.cfg" verify the following is set to [audio] disable = 0

      In "emulators.cfg" Append the following statement to configuration file and save:

      reicast-audio-alsa = "CON:/opt/retropie/emulators/reicast/bin/reicast.sh alsa %ROM%"

      Now you need to choose "reicast-audio-alsa" as default option in Runcommand Launch Menu. https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/runcommand

      @SpudsMcToole just for the record even if it was a bug with coolcv there is nothing we can do about it as it's closed source. You may have luck getting a hold of Oscar the developer (nanochess) on the Atariage thread , possible someone else may have had the same issue and posted a fix. I haven't been over there in a while so idk

      @darkmenace i'm afraid you can't adjust it without pulling the repository, changing the code and recompiling. not that you'd want to - it delays it but the sound gets way out of sync. it's arguably worse than the distortion.

      Let's stick to the other thread for anything else: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/2612/mortal-kombat-2-3-umk3-audio
