+# Frame skipping
+
+In the Video & audio menu, the **Frame skipping** option allows you to select
+a number of frames to skip between rendered frames.
+* Setting this to 0 will show every single frame, but this will slow down the
+ game considerably, as the DSTWO would only have enough processing power to
+ emulate **and** render a few frames per second. It has enough power to
+ emulate all frames and render **some**, though.
+* Setting this to 10 will skip 10 frames and render one, but this will
+ severely desynchronise the audio. You will also find yourself unable to
+ perform actions during the correct frame with the controller.
+* Setting this to - (Keep up with the game) will make the emulator try to
+ render the game at its correct speed, dropping frames as needed (up to 8).
+
+It is recommended to start with frame skipping 4 (Show 1 frame every 5) and
+go to 3 or 2 if the game doesn't run with major slowdowns with them. If you
+don't like the slowdowns, return to frame skipping 4 or -.
