Out of Synch Issue

[Gilchrest]

Hello,

The problem I'm having could be hardware-related, but I wouldn't know. Basically, every song I play is slightly out of synch and is about one beat off. (The video is one beat slower then the song). The problem is that it doesn't snowball, it remains exactly one beat too slow throughout the song.

-I've tried adjusting the a/v delay to 300. It appears to have no effect.

-I've also dumbed down the graphics to the point where I'm running light graphics mode, no gimmicks and no mod. This does nothing to change the problem.

-I have upped the bpm for almost every song because, for some reason, everyone who makes songs seems to like them slow. I prefer the "guitar hero equivalent hard and expert difficulty" speed. 100 BPM is too slow for me.

My computer specs are as follows: Pentium 4, 3ghz, 1gb ram, Video card is an Radeon x1300. Not sure on the ram of the card, probably 512 but could be 256.

Anyways. Hardware could be the issue, but eh. If thats the case, I'll wait for rockband rather than spend 1k for a new comp.

Your help and thoughts are appreciated.

Well... playing with the AV delay might be your only hope. Your hardware should run it properly. Hell, on Lite mode it runs well enough on my crappy Athlon XP 1.2Ghz.

TBH, I'm not sure whether you need to go + or - with the AV delay. But yeah, I'd keep moving it around 'till it's right.

A/V delay is in milliseconds, I doubt adding 200 would get it across 1 beat. Add or subtract more.

I have exactly the same problem. It started after I upgraded my hardware. Could be hard- or software related, because I have a different sound card now with different drivers.

Athlon 64 3800+, 2GB, GF8400GS
Fedora Core 6

increase or decrease your sound buffer size. It adds and removes a noticable bit of delay (more than the AV delay allows)

My friend steeve plays on my FOF and says it's off, and I stink at GH for a while at GH when going back to it for a while, so it's a standard timing issue. Someone needs to address it, because I look like a moron for it!

You can adjust delay in the .ini file just add
delay = 2000 or(what ever it tackes to sync)
