Can anyone tell me why sound would shut-off mid-game

[Legend]

It happpens randomly but I'm just wondering if there's something i can do to avoid this. It seems to only happen with Jabo's audio but I can't use Schibo's audio with all the games it occurs on. It has done this before on games like Mortal Kombat 4, Mario Tennis and NFL Blitz. It simply turns off and does not come back on.

Also, another quick bug report. This happens with alot of games. When I go to start a particular game, it loads but then the emulator crashes and disappears with no error messages. It does this until I start another game (I use F-Zero typically), then close that down then go and load the game I was trying. Works every time.

Well it also happens to Worms Armageddon. It's definetly a emu problem with Jabo's direct sound. Which means there's things in this game i'm not going to hear like footsteps and such using Schibo's sound - which is a good plugin for some games but not as good as Jabo's for others (like in this case).

Is there anything to fix this or do I have to wait for a new release? I can't believe no one else is mentioning or having this issue. Same with the second immediate crashing problem, it happens alot of the time when I go to open a game even if I just got done playing it! I seems to only be happening with the games that use Jabo's 1.5 or 1.5.1 in the rom plugin setting. It happens until I use Glide 64 to open another game or i select the plugin in the master plugin selection screen. So i guess that's a little bug with the rom plugin selector then huh. Not too much of a big deal now that I'm preety sure what's causing it but at least this bug report is out there for the authors.

So no one has this issue with the sound, huh? Wierd.

Do you think uninstalling 1964 would fix the second problem with games using Jabo's plugin crashing when in the rom plugin selection? It does happen 100% of the time. Does this sound like a registry problem? I just really don't want to redo ALL of my settings for nothing. Sorry if I'm being annoying replying twice to my topic but I just wanted a little comfirmation on this stuff. No biggie though.

I had the same issue but have no clue exactly what that stuff happens. Also when I alt-tab out I would get that issue :?

happens to me too.

Alright, I've gotton to the bottom of it. Hopefully, this will be addressed in the final release. The emu crashing issue is directly linked to "Start rom in fullscreen". I deleted the 1964 reg. key and the games using jabo's plugin started fine-in windowed as default. I go firstly to change THAT setting and what do you know the emu crashes EVERY time (until i use glide64 or use Jabo's as my system default). Even when I go back and turn it off, the game starts in windowed and then IMMEDIATELY gives me an error and crashes. Quite strange.
This is again with Jabo's being the rom plugin setting since I don't want to change vid. plugins every time I want to use Jabo's (now that I don't have to :naughty: ). I also don't want to hit ALT+enter to go fullscreen every time I start a game. So now basically Jabo's is my system default plugin and I had to go through and switch 90% of my roms to use Glide64 as their rom specific plugin and now at least everything is convient. Just wanted to put this out there for the authors. :1964:
