LAV Tray Icons/Screen Tearing or Stutter

Postby jman201 » Wed Mar 06, 2019 8:43 am

When playing any SMBX game, it looks like it is using countless LAV splitters. When I disable the splitter, it does the same for LAV audio decoder in the tray area. I googled it and found nothing. Any ideas? I just want to see if it is linked to the slight stutter when the screen is scrolling. If I disable vsync, I get massive screen tearing. Thanks in advance.

This is a very old bug because vanilla SMBX does use the MCI interface for audio processing. You can open the settings of the Lav codec and completely disable all showing icons on it.

Added in 2 minutes 32 seconds:
By the way, vanilla SMBX requires a lot of power to work normally, therefore it causes many issues against the workflow. I highly recommend you to check out TheXTech - the modern port of SMBX engine that works much more stable on weaker computers and on other platforms:

I made it after the SMBX source got released on the 2'nd of February 2020.
