audio issues with SNES in pi3

@thelostsoul do i type up that stuff??? like by pressing F4 at the main menu and type all of that then rebooting??

@lovelorn88 Like I said, you could look in the menu of RetroArch for the emulator. Start the emulator and hit hotkey + X (default is Select + X) and you get to the menu. I am currently backing up the sd card as image file, so I can't say exactly where the options are. Search for settings then look for audio driver and then change it. Not sure where to find the audio out rate.

Otherwise, you could edit the /etc/retroarch.cfg file directly. If you are on the terminal (F4), type
sudo nano /etc/retroarch.cfg
and then you can edit it. But can't recommend it, if you aren't familiar. CTRL+o will save the file I think. And CTRL+x will exit. But before editing, you can do backup of the file, if needed with
cp /etc/retroarch.cfg /etc/retroarch.cfg.bak

Im going to be getting another Pi, and i guess ANOTHER power supply even though this new one doesnt give me a lighting bolt at all..... idk, its only with snes.... Ive put a new image on a brand NEW sd card a 64gb Sandisk class 10.... so theres really nothing i could have done wrong here... even though im a noob its still fairly simply especially when following youtube videos like ETM, only other things that i can think of would be get a new pi and power supply, my files are fine

@darksavior ive watched multiple videos on YouTube where they have the lighting bolt on the top right and there games run just fine.... its gotta be the Pi3B...

Oh no sorry. I gave you wrong path. It would be better just to edit snes file. I dont know the path and can later lookup. It should be located in config directory and then under snes folder.

There is a main retroarch.cfg file, which all emulators use, if the settings in their own retroarch.cfg is not set. Each emulator have its own retroarch.cfg configuration file, which is preferrsbly used. So edit the snes audi settings there. I can tell you later the path.

There comes nothing else to my mind.

@thelostsoul yeah.. it has to be something to do with the Pi3B itself.... i overclocked it..... looked for different roms... a different power supply..... redownloaded retropie and flashed to a new sd card and STILL the audio with snes crackles
