ps2_emu and ps2_gxemu input lag

[mahboi898]

I don't know if this is the right place to ask. But when playing PS2 games on BC and semi-BC PS3 consoles, there will always be a notificable input lag of approximately 2 or 3 frames, no matter what
Would it be theoretically possible for a future update or mod to tackle this problem and to reduce the amount of lag to a minimum?

Hello @mahboi898
I'm not the developer that modded the PS2 emulators. You could contact kozarovv through PSX-PLACE forums. Although I think he is not active there, there are other users that have contact with him.

My suggestion is that try with older unmodded PS2 emulators and test with the game controller connected to USB.
Also try different games to confirm if the lag is specific to one particular game.

Hello @aldostools
thank you for your answer, I will try to contact the developer.
As for things I already tried:

• connecting the controller to USB
• trying many different games
• using the unmodified emulators including netemu
• using analog out on a CRT monitor and comparing to a real PS2 to confirm that the lag is actually present

So yeah. None of that made a difference. There seems to be nothing you can about it at the moment. This is likely how these emulators are supposed to operate.
