Steam Deck Frame pacing issue? (Update) - jacke9708 - 05-12-2022
i wanted to check if anyone else have experienced the same issue as me, I installed dolphin throu emudeck and it does work great with the SteamOS
(it is running discovery version of dolphin "5.0-16101" i have also tried launching dolphin directly in the discovery app so i know it is not another old version)
It seem to be giving me some stutter/frame pacing issues.
it will run perfectly fine for 30 seconds but then for 10 seconds it will feel more sluggish and choppy even tho the framerate never leaves 60.
ive tested everything i can think of so im pretty desperate.
I tried one tip unchecking Immediate XFB, sadly id did not seem to remove my issue.
i recorded a video of it happening which shows it quite well: https://youtu.be/MovSZWv6JOQ (recorded at 60fps slowed to 30fps, it starts at around 5 seconds and goes away around 14 seconds)
i also noticed this stuttering in paper mario ttyd, so it does seem that it is not game exclusive.
i did download the windows version of dolphin just to see if i would get the same issue and ran it with proton throu steam and that did seem to eliminated the sluggishness or if it did have any i didnt notice it on the windows version.
(ill attach an image of my version of dolphin running on steam deck)
Have anyone been noticing anything similar to this, or am i alone?

Abit of an update: i did some further testing just to be bullet proof, i did a factory reset on the deck and got dolphin from the discovery store nothing else on the entire unit, and sadly it seems im still getting some of those stutters every 10 or so seconds.

Got another update: did some more testing today and once again downloaded the newest stable version of Windows version and rand it with proton, and i did not notice any of my previusly mentioned stuttering issues.
maybe its some sort of porblem with steam's linux distro? no idea tho im quite the noob when it comes to this.
