If that's the case, I'm not sure if I have any specific advice for how to make it faster, but using DSP LLE won't help, at least. I can also hear the same problem when the car crashes and the person in the car gets out.

LMAO, it was someone else too ? Sorry about that Craft... my Irish Wolfhound knocked me over a couple weeks ago when i was at the park with him and really badly busted both my knees up and the only thing that makes the daily pain bearable until my docs can figure out something to do is painkillers, so i'm abit stoned atm. Hope we're still going fishing next week Craft ? Ok... so i go to power settings and set it to High Performance and that's 1 part of what you both said up there ^ done, right? I know how to access my Nvidia settings, but how do i put that on High Performance? Also as i've said plenty of times that i've been using various editions of Dolphin for years... well i remember ages and ages ago when i was having issues with something, another person on this or maybe another forum (i can't remember) said that Dolphin loves overclocking. I sorta know what overclocking is... would you recommend that too?

Ok, i'm going to guess this it as far as the Nvidia bit goes, right?

and this is what you meant in regards to the Windows part, correct?

If those are right, ok... much much better but can still notice a very slight "crackle" every now and then. Like 99% perfect. Guess it'll have to do. Don't get why this was working 100% perfect on 10845 just a few days ago before i changed ANY power settings... but now i just tried 10845 too (before i changed the power settings i mean to see if maybe i could just have 2 different versions of Dolphin to solve this) and exactly the same issues this time. As far as i know nothing had been changed at all when i tried 10845 this time.

Windows is right, nvidia is wrong and can possibly mess with dolphin. Change that menu to let the 3d application decide. Then go to manage 3d settings, and there should be "Power management mode"

[color=#111111]Thanks for replying back yesterday, i didn't quite understand till now what you meant by "[/color][color=black]Show us your current graphics -> enhancements menu" because i'd taken a couple of painkillers and was having a blond moment, but now i get ya. Ok so... probably easier if i do this in point form...

1. My Windows Power setting is on High Performance.
2. If you go to this link i'm 99.99% sure this is really what you meant in regards to the Nvidia power settings, right? I've now changed it to that...

3. If you go to this link you'll see my graphics enhancements...

4. If you go to this link, i again recorded 2 cut scenes (the psychiatrist again and this time where you meet the female cop in the cafe) The graphics look great and run butter-smooth and the voice is 99.99% perfect now... BUT... as you can see (especially with the cop) there are still the odd couple of seconds here and there where the voice is just OH SO VERY SLIGHTLY off... like they have a sore throat because they have tonsillitis or something lol...

Pretty sure that's everything covered. Truly do appreciate all the help all of you have given me and i know we are sooo sooo close to getting this 100% perfect  I'll leave this up to you guys now. Cheers.[/color]

Nvidia settings are correct. It seems like the game is still too slow. Try changing backend or disabling AA. If you exit full screen there should also be a speed percent in the title bar.

[color=black]Ok... AA is turned off now. Have noticed since then it's become unpredictable - that would be the best description. Everytime it goes to that "robot voice"... but only very slightly now, like you saw in that last youtube vid - like where it's oh so so close... but the thing is you don't know when it'll happen. Like i've tried running that scene with the cop in the diner again and sometimes i don't even get that voice at all the entire scene, other times  it's exactly like how you saw in the vid.[/color]

[color=black] [/color]
[color=black]Just now i said screw it and deleted my save files and started all over again from the start and everything ran flawlessly with the opening scene with the psychiatrist, then all the way up to the scene where i met the lady in the bar (because i'm guessing you know this game has different cut scenes depending on what choices you make... like if you look at all the hot sexy pics on the walls as you're making your way through then you'll get the big titty cop in the diner... if you don't then you'll end up going to the bar instead and talk to a female bartender) where again it ran flawlessly... but then as i was running back to town and the first instance occurs where (i'll take it you've played this before) all the surrounding buildings freeze over and this game's version of the Otherworld begins to appear... well then you get a phone call from your daughter and it was actually quite "robot voicey" then... (I changed it in the options to have the audio that normally would come through the Wiimote speaker just go to my tv instead because the Wiimote speaker is stupid and useless. Anyway i've noticed any time it's something phone-related... like a call... 9 times out of 10 it gets the worst then)[/color]
[color=black] [/color]
[color=black]Ok so... given that latest novel-long rant of mine... and all the other novel-long rants in this MEGA THREAD... any new ideas to just get this f**king thing to just f**king work properly?? What's backend btw? And with all the other enhancements i've set... will there be any real noticeable graphical difference if i lowered it to 2x resolution... aka 720p?[/color]

Graphics backend is on top of the graphics menu. IIRC you were on direct3d 11.
It might not hurt to delete the config folder and custom game settings (NOT the one in the sys folder, the one in the user config). IIRC vertex rounding is already on, and disabling Store EFB Copies to Texture Only is the only other setting not set. Put your enhancements back if you want them.
You can also enable audio stretching to help the audio if the game does slow down. (config, audio)

All good, i watched a video on youtube from a couple years back where someone got it running 1080p 60fps perfect using Dolphin 5.05 and at first i was just gonna download that, copy every setting they had and try that... but then i thought i'll just try 1 thing in their settings on 11132 and it now works perfectly  Played atleast a couple of hours and no distortion or frame drops at all. Even turned AA back on and still works perfect. That 1 change i did... turned dual core back on. That's it, that's literally all it took  LOL... man do i feel embarrassed and dumb now after going through all this  So i just got 2 separate Dolphin folders now... one for HOTD and LM (because Luigi's mouth flickers with dual core on) and a separate one for SH SM. Well cheers for all ya help anyway mate.
