Solved Still sound problems with Atari 5200 and 800 games

[jorgemagana]

Hello, today I made a fresh install of 6.1.1 and the sound problem reported in this post (now closed) continues:

https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/18980/problems-with-atari-800xl-emulator-with-raspberry-pi-3b-and-recalbox-6-0-6-1

With 6.0 there aren't any audio problems, but since 6.1 a noise is present in every atari 5200 and 800 game.

I am using Rasp 3b+

Hello, I solved that problem with hotkey + B in the Retroarch configuration you select Options/Video Standard and change NTSC by PAL

[jorgemagana]

@juliantx thanks, but is a partial solution, games like Joust and others do not start if select PAL. I do not know why there is a PAL option in RA if 5200 never release PAL versions of the games... It is weird, but thanks!

I'm also using RB 6.1.1 and have that noises that superpose the game's sound on Atari 800 games.
Is there already an update available?
When I check the system settings' update section it doesn't show me any updates available.

@EternaX Update won't work from v6 to v7.

To get v7.1.1 you must make a fresh install on your uSD using Raspberry Pi Imager.

Sound problems are gone in 7.1.1, thanks!

I updated from 6.1.1. to 7.1.1. and the Sound problems on Atari 800 games still persist. A high frequent noise superposes the game sound

Recalbox 7.1.1
Raspberry Pi 2GB

I can confirm the pitch noise plays on all games I've tried. No matter what (limited) options I change, the noise still plays.

I've found a fix, in case someone needs a help with this issue as well.

Load a game, then press Select +B to bring up the Retroarch menu.
From there, press A and go to Configurations > Audio.
Now set the audio volume and mixer volume to -10.

Hope it helps.
Regards,

John.
