      Update Again:

      I know I'm just kinda talking out loud now, but I may have narrowed down another fix without having to switch to OMX player. It would appear that turning power saving mode off can also allow the default video player to work without freezing.

      Anyone care to give insights into this? I'm curious as to why and how it's affecting it. I have flipped it off and on several times, and the issue goes and comes with those tests.

      Power saving disables redndering of redundant frames after the description or title has scrolled once (or, instantly, or never):

      https://github.com/RetroPie/EmulationStation/pull/172

      Is that when the freeze occurs?

      This seems exactly right. I just never noticed the correlation between the description scrolling and the freeze. After it scrolls once, that is pretty much when the video freezes each time (can vary, but ballpark). This is why it would seem turn ing PS mode off stops this. So very good info!

      I will say this line seems to conflict with what we already know: "PS is disabled while running Videos through VLC." If you have to turn OMX on, wouldn't VLC be the video player by default? And we know it does not disable the freezing unless we manualy turn it off. But other than that, it seems all good now!

      If the PC runs CRT Emudriver with Composite enabled, most likely the monitor only accepts a Composite signal, which is not what the adapter will provide.

      @achillespilot Hey- I did get it worked out. What worked for me was lr-mupen64plus-next and video at 1920x1080 @ 60 Hz. The N64 logo when the rom launches looks like garbage but the intro and the game itself look great. Good luck!

      Apologies.

      Changing it to 1080p 50hz (am in the UK) and disabling overscan worked.

      Thanks!

      framebuffer_priority=7

      was the only option I needed in config.txt to get emulation station to work from hdmi 1.

      (I needed to use this as the fat micro hdmi adapter I was using pressed against the usb-c power connector)

      These are the only options I have set in config.txt (audio and video on second hdmi port 1 work fine in emulation station)

      framebuffer_priority=7 # OVERCLOCK SETTINGS arm_freq=1800 # CPU Frequency gpu_freq=600 # GPU Frequency over_voltage=2 # Electric power sent to CPU / GPU (4 = 1.3V) dtparam=audio=on # Enable DRM VC4 V3D driver on top of the dispmanx display stack dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d max_framebuffers=2

      @mitu Found it, and it works. Now I just have to locate the option to save this config for each individual game instead of every game...

      @smelly fyi setting overscan settings without overscan_scale=1 will not apply them to emulationstation - see https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Overscan/#the-console-looks-good-but-the-picture-is-off-for-emulationstationretroarchetc (and also see further up this page for other/better ways of solving overscan issues)

      What game(s) have you tried? It could be a corrupted ROM, so try a few different games or try to find another copy of the game.

      Have you tried to remove the redream package and re-install from the latest binary?

      Also have you tried using the lr-flycast or Reicast emulators to run the game instead? Both can be found within the optional packages menu. When launching the ROM, hit a button to choose which emulator to use(once you have installed them). All three emulators run well on my RPI4 4Gb at stock speeds.

      Only other thing is to think your pi is throttling, have you any heatsinks/cooling? Are you using a case?
