      I need help with a continual problem I've had with the wolfanoz v6 128gb image. As soon as the Pi boots the sound is totally garbled and the video is stuttering like hell, and no matter what settings I've changed in config, or deleting and re-writing the image again it's still a problem , making me wonder if it's hardware related? I have a video attached I took a few days ago.

      I am operating on a crt tv. The video cord is the proper trrs cable. 3b+ is brand new along with Samsung evo 128gb sd card. Power supply is official 3b+ version.

      Can anyone help me out with this? I can't be the first with this problem. Thanks guys

        @jhvh777 https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first - 3rd party images are not supported here. Install the RetroPie image from https://retropie.org.uk/download to get support.

          It might be related to Debian Stretch, if the RetroPie image hasn't been correctly updated to Debian Stretch. I had this issue running OSMC Stretch with RetroSMC script. It used to work until Debian Stretch came out then it stuttered and was totally unplayable. Everything stuttered and slowed down drastically

          Try this, it will update ALL your RetroPie cores and emulators to the latest Debian Stretch code. It compiles EVERYTHING from the source, which WILL take some considerable time. Leave it running overnight to compile and update ALL the code to the latest builds

          https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Updating-RetroPie/

          Choose the following option, and be very patient. It WILL take hours and hours. Hence running overnight

          Update All Installed Packages : This will update the RetroPie-Setup script and all installed packages

          3rd party images are installed in a quick fashion with very little aftermarket support. You might be even better, as suggested, downloading a proper image and starting from scratch. At least then you know it WILL work correctly
