Did you change the image resolution?
I changed all of mine to something like 200x200 for square boxarts and whatever the equivalent is for letterbox ones (200x160 I think) and I no longer have any stutters.

Yeah... I went as low as 150 horizontal res (keeping aspect ratio) and the "lag" continued.
Worth noting that I have the complete sets for EVERY console RETROARCH emulates. So... that may have something to do with it.
Anyway, the stuttering was exactly the same so I decided to keep the hi res images.
Oh you have full romsets?
That might be why.
I only have like 30 tops for one console.
Try making a new playlist for a core/emu you don't have, grab a handful of roms for it and then try shifting the playlist to see if the stutter occurs with the newly made playlist or not.
If it doesn't stutter, the issue is the amount of roms RA has to load from the Playlist.
If it does, it might be something else, but I doubt it would still stutter in a playlist with less than 10 roms in it.

That n64 thread is interesting, if that user is correct in saying that the games didn't actually use any 64bit math; then maybe reusing code from a PSX dynarec wouldn't be such a stretch after all. I'm totally uninformed in this area though (I have no idea how different MIPS64 is to its 32bit counterpart, they could be completely incompatible) and there is a user a little further down in that thread who says that using the 32bit mode makes no sense and that the OP had some of their info wrong. I'd take all of it (including this post) with a grain of salt.
That GitHub chatlog certainly is interesting, I'm hoping some of that advice - specifically the stuff about overlapping blocks - finds its way into the finished dynarec, since it would allow for some neat optimisations on architectures like ARM or PowerPC. It's in their hands though, and it looks like "just get it working first" is the goal for now, which is fair.

Well, it took its time to take off, but it did
Everyone will benefit if beetle PSX gets a dynarec. For starters, people with last gen mid-end cpus will have a more stable experience (beetle PSX is a full software emulation core, pre ryzen amd cpus have a hard time with it)
Sooner or later it had to take off

Yep it's back on the nightlies
Both in the full package and individual formats. Thanks!
One more thing, @Radius4.
I also noticed there is a new mame2003-plus core.
Apparently this one is a further modified mame2003 core which adds some stuff to make some games run better and/or compatible with the 2003 emulator. But, some odd reason, I cannot get RetroArch to detect this core to boot the zip files in which the games are stored in.
If I try to boot via Load Content, RetroArch doesn't detect this core to boot the ROMs with.
Also, I changed my MAME.lpl playlist to run the ROMs using mame2003-plus_libretro.rpx instead of the already existing mame2003_libretro.rpx core, and now the playlist doesn't appear at all in the lists. They do appear if I put back the original core in the LPL file.
Just thought about letting you know, perhaps this one hasn't been added in full in RA yet.
Re mame2003-plius, I just downloaded the latest nightly and this mame core is in the Load Core list (it is tagged as Experimental)
Just tried dkong as that is supposed to have better sound and it seems to work fine.
Switching content to 1941 and no crash so it seems relatively stable.

Oh so it is appearing now?
Good to know, I was about to file an issue report on Github about it lol
Good, sorry if I do not express myself well I'm Spanish and I use a translator.
I have retroarch 1.7.1 in wii u and when I try to put a shader to a game regardless of the core, even if I select it does not do anything the image stays exactly the same, can someone help me?
