Description

Game Name?

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Master Quest

Game ID?

D43E01

Game MD5?

1e23afc69bff50a7d20f32c5b739dc06

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong in few words.

The video previews freeze except for the hotclips. F-Zero GX freezes very early in, making it very easy to reproduce. The game doesn't crash; you can still cancel the video and return to main menu.

What did you expect to happen instead?

Well, I expected the videos to play.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Startup Game
2.Hit Z at main menu
3.Choose F-Zero or any other video.

Dolphin 3.5 and 3.5-367 are old versions of Dolphin that have
known issues and bugs, so don't report issues about them and test the
latest Dolphin version first.
Which versions of Dolphin did you test on?

Dolphin 3.5-367... JK

I probably tested this in a ton of versions. Most recent being 4.0-1422. tested like a hundred branches and other changes too. And tons of settings, like, every setting in dolphin.

Does using an older version of Dolphin solve your issue? If yes, which
versions of Dolphin used to work?

Nope

What are your PC specifications? (including, but not limited to: Operating
System, CPU and GPU)

Core i5 3570K, GTX 760 running Windows 7 64bit
Core i7 2670QM, GTX 560m running Ubuntu something or another. It runs Dolphin, basically.

Are you using the 32 or the 64 bit version of Dolphin?

64bit

Is there any other relevant information? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files)

The game does not crash during this; the video just freezes up. Hitting any buttons will take you the main menu. That's the most interesting part to me.

Still broken in 4.0-2012

Might be a jit issue; Does it work in JITIL or interpreter?

Actions #3

Updated by JMC4789 over 10 years ago

It doesn't work on JIT or JITIL or Interpreter. Or Software Renderer + any of those combinations. And it never worked to my knowledge. Will test 3.0.

It's froze up instantly in 2.0, in 3.0 no video shows and you hear about 2 seconds of sound. In 3.5, no video shows and you hear about 3 seconds of sound.

Currently it works in interpreter.

I've fixed it in jit by the following changes:

The changes to VideoInterface.cpp seem straightforward and like there were just bugs before...?
The change to the header makes sense but i fear making the change correctly (converting a bunch of stuff back to floats...)

It seems as though something is going on regarding the CPU Timing. Two people have confirmed it's working in this Pull Request. https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/pull/1316

https://dl.dolphin-emu.org/prs/pr-1316-dolphin-latest-x64.7z

It's a hacky WIP and not guaranteed to be the correct fix, so not marking as fixed in PR or anything like that.

This still seems to be happening on master, but curiously I noticed the Japanese version gets through the F Zero trailer albeit choking around the middle a bit. https://youtu.be/MfLiFM6eXsY

It still freezes on latest Dolphin build, when trying to watch hot clips it freezes throughout, is there any way to fix this?

Increasing the emulated CPU clock usually fixes it.

your right, it fixes it.. is there an issue that could happen if I increase the emulated CPU clock?

A small increase, to 110% or 120% or so, is usually fine. But we can't guarantee that every game will work perfectly with it.
