Pcsx2: Freeze in FMV
#1
Hi ! I'm new to this forum, and also to pcsx2, so I require your help with some little issues I'm experiencing. 
I've tried to search by myself, but the problem depicted were bigger than mine.


So, the problem is, when the FMV run on ocsx2, it gets frequently, some little lags or freeze, and the scene goes: liiiiiiii...ke ^&@... hat (like that). Yes some words are skipped. It's not that big of an issue, but when it happens every 5 seconds it's annoying, plus the fact that with FFXII it also happens in every cutscenes, not just FMV. I don't know hat could cause that, since everything in the games runs perfectly.

Well, I'm asking you some of your help, please.

My specs are :

Intel Core i7 4720HQ 2.6 ghz
Nvidia GeForce 960M
DirectX 11
8gb Ram

And... it's a laptop.

Thanks in advance for your help !

Put clamping modes to default if the game doesn't require it explicitly.

Enable default speedhacks.
Check of mtvu helps or slows down for each game you try.

Use gsdx...avx...dll as gs plugin while using software node do get a mild speedup.

With that settings, FFXII seems to not lag anymore (i did some fast testing) , apart for tiny little freeze in cutscenes and when loading new area. But for clamping mode, apparently Shadow Hearts need it to full, because character models disappear from time to time...

Thank you for your help on that anyway !
