Heavy Lag (mainly audio) on Cinematics only.

[olmek]

Hello-

Whenever a cinematic (or any visual that is not actual gameplay for that matter) comes up, my audio starts skipping uncontrollably and my video seems to lag along with it. I've trying playing with all kinds of different settings and tried to search for similar problems but have had no success. This happens particularly with Metroid Prime and Star Fox Adventures for GC.

Does anyone have any ideas on what this could be? All gameplay is fine - just cinematics, which seems strange to me.

Thanks!

Screenshot attached. I'm not super tech savvy so I have trouble understanding what a lot of these settings mean. What is the optimal setup for me?

Below is also a screenshot of my audio driver info. My headphones are being plugged in straight to my mobo. No sound card.

After playing some more today... the audio lag (which is probably better classified as "skipping" since its not actually delayed but rather just choppy), seems to also occur during gameplay at certain parts bt its more heavily emphasized during cinematics always

Well the games you are trying to play are very demanding and your CPU isn't fast enough

Did you enable VBeam Hack for these games by any chance? (rightclick game -> check VBeam Hack)
I happen to have the same problem (skipping audio and lagging during cinematic playback ingame) when VBeam Hack is enabled for SMG1 and 2 (I don't have your games). Disabling VBeam Hack fixes this problem for me.
