I pretty much get like 54 frames per second, and 24 in Codec Sequences, though it doesn't cause lag, and the sound and facial movements are in tune aswell ^^ No skipping here!

lxphantomxl, you don't have to post the EXACT same post 7 times in threads you're digging up from old times, I consider this as spamming, be warned.

[lxphantomxl]

there were several of these threads, and I ddint know how active the forums were, so I thought that since they were old threads, they would get buried by new threads and the person who started this thread would check on it if he/she were still having problems.

I got mine to work with petes opengl and the internal spu. it took me a while to figure it out, though. good luck
