      So I have retropie 4.2(latest) installed on my pi 0w and compared to some of the videos I have seen of the pi 0 w running in 4.1 or under I am noticing a degrade in performance with the same games tested on snes and Sega Genesis ex being Sonic 2, where in the older pi 0's plays full speed with no audio lag issues, but when I run it the same way in 4.2 the frames lag and the audio skips alot more. Has anyone experienced this issues and is there a way to get the older 4.1 compatible image anywhere. Any information would be greatly appreciated 😀
      Thank you

        You can try to download 4.1 with the torrent link provided in the unofficial RetroPie torrent link thread. Check it out: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/4400/torrent-download-retropie

          @meleu any change there's an image out there that already has the pi 0w patched in already ? I want to install it on a separate SD card to compare the two versions. Thank you
