Points:

  1. The video plugin interfaces with Project64's RSP. You must have the RSP configuration correct for the type of video plugin (HLE or LLE) you wish to use. Even if you are using an HLE video plugin, the RSP can still be pre-processing some graphics, for example the 2D backdrops in Zelda, this is the default situation. At the time of writing, all N64 emulators are using HLE video, there is no true LLE available.

Choose a non-default video plugin if:

  • if a game is marked "Needs video plugin" and you have a 3rd party plugin which you know does support the game
  • if a 3rd party plugin better supports your (probably legacy) hardware
  • video plugins are extremely complicated, there could be many reasons why you would want to change.
