      @Brunnis , care to look at these findings? I know you did a bunch of research on input lag and determined that dispmanx and video_threaded = false worked great at reducing input lag, but with version 4.1 and 4.2 of retropie, it stutters so bad it's not playable. Any thoughts?

        @dukesilver Please wait before opening issues on our issue tracker. We cannot be responsible for bugs in every single 3rd party piece of software we ship with, and the issue tracker clearly says to use the forum (It doesn't mean open a thread on the forum, and in 2 days time open a ticket ).

        The dispmanx driver in retroarch had some changes that removed the triple buffer which may be related.

        https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/commit/0b75671c21ec1e891779031b6435ad18debe3e60

        You will need to open an issue there. They may want you to build RetroArch and test before/after the changeset.

        To help us help you - please make sure you read the sticky topics before posting - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

          @BuZz I see that now, I was only trying to help and follow the rules, that's why I waited and tried to do as much research and post here first. I didn't know enough of the software to realize it was due to a 3rd parties change.
