livingonwheels Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Just want to be sure this is normal. I notice that there is a buzzing noise coming from any television's speakers I use with the GameDrive, whether composite or scart makes no difference. This happens only in the GameDrive's menu, nowhere else. As soon as you leave that menu and begin a game, it goes away and is not heard again until you reboot back into the GameDrive's menu. Seems to even change it's "pitch" as you scroll up or down, choosing your game. Tried this on multiple televisions, same issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SainT Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 (edited) I don’t produce any sound in the menu, so there is no audio to drown out the poorly shielded audio cabling. It is entirely normal for old systems to have buzz in the audio. The change in pitch, etc, is the interference from the video signal being manifested as sound.
