Rockboy audio

(1/4) > >>

r3dlink13:
When I play a gameboy rom, the sound is way too highand squeeky. This occurs on all of my roms so i currently have the sound turned off. Can anyone explain this? Is it being worked on if it is a fault in Rockboy? If this has lready been discussed, please redirect me. Thanks!

axlgreasetires:
Well...

The reason the noise sucks is because an ipod cannot run at the same speed that a gameboy can.  That's the simplest way to put it.

Llorean:
And that was also no explanation at all. The iPod is many times the speed of a gameboy, and your explanation made no attempt to help the user, and shows very little evidence of understanding the cause of the problem.

While I haven't played gameboy games on the iPod (having an iRiver that works fine with them) I don't know for certain, but it could be the same resampling issue that Doom and other things suffer from, I'm just not really sure.

r3dlink13:
Do you know if anyone is currently or will be working on it? I realize it's not a top priority, but still...

Llorean:
Well, firstly, I've never explicitly heard someone mention gameboy audio problems before. I note in your signature that you're running an unsupported build, so I would say

A) Check for an existing bug report for an identical rockboy audio problem.

B) Make sure you have a clean install of the official build, and then verify for certain that the problem happens on a ROM where the sound works properly on a computer.

And no, I don't think anyone's working explicitly on rockboy at all.
