          Seems to be the cable. The audio is interfering with the video signal. When you use cheap scart cables, you often have the same problem. Let me guess, the noise changes with the color on screen?

          Just forget about these crappy VGA cables and get a VGA Box. You will need a 15/31khz switch anyway.

            The general rule of thumb seems to be that straight VGA cables for the Dreamcast are crap, especially the Tomee ones; I haven’t heard of any of these mass-produced cables being of quality.

            That said, if you don’t want to go the VGA box route, quality straight VGA cables do seem to exist. People on the shmups forum have reported that thefoo83 on eBay makes quality cables. If they don’t currently have any listings for the cable you want, you can message them.

                  You won’t get any audio if you don’t use the -aud firmware.

                  Are you having audio issues with any other system?

                      Your SNES’ picture cut out, or the audio? SNES is a troublesome one though, so it’s hard to draw any conclusions from that.

                          Yep Megadrive should be a good test, if that has issues too I think it will be best to RMA your OSSC.

                            I’ll try a few things and RMA it if needed

                              Just e-mail in via the contact form to arrange RMAs.

                              You can use the H.Backporch setting in the advanced timings menu to shift the image.
