 Horrible Audio Lag
I'm using the computer in my stats.
Whenever I play Mario Kart Wii or Brawl with a "Gamecube controller", the imput lags significantly enough to affect gameplay. I'm using Dolphin 3.5 and tried the Magic Joy Box and a 360 controller. Neither helped. I determined that the lag is mostly audio-related, and changing from dsound to xaudio2 didn't really help much either. This is a top-end machine, built specifically to play Dolphin well, but... THE SOUND LAGS HARD!!!

RE: Horrible Audio Lag
Dolphin settings? Try using the latest revisions while you're at it. OpenAL has been implemented on Windows and it should have time-stretching, though I'm not sure it'll help with your input lag.

RE: Horrible Audio Lag
Weird, I updated and the OpenAL did not work at all, even with a latency of 2. It was even worse than the new Xaudio2, which
I'm not using AL at this state. "If I say that between Earth and Mars there's a teapot, nobody can disprove it if I say that it's too small to see with any telescope.

RE: Horrible Audio Lag
Use LLE and overclock your CPU (if necessary)

RE: Horrible Audio Lag
I tried LLE, which didn't really help that much.
Did disabling exclusive mode affect anything? I don't like the idea of copywrong malware taking over your sound card and doing nasty things to hardware they don't own. Will changing the audio rate in the Windows setting do anything? "If I say that between Earth and Mars there's a teapot, nobody can disprove it if I say that it's too small to see with any telescope.

RE: Horrible Audio Lag
OpenAL backend is nowhere near usable, at least in linux. Heavy CPU load, massive slowdown, a LOT more than LLE (3-4 times) and horrible distorted sound.
