Description

I know the image example is using Stella 6.7.1 but upstream, Stella 7.0 (latest) doesn't have this issue either.

Title.
The only explanation that I can surmise is that "Randomize CPU: SP" needs to be enabled to run demos by Noice without issue.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the graphic glitches with demos created by Noice, comparing Stella 6.7.1 behavior and the reported Stella 7.0 result. Check whether enabling “Randomize CPU: SP” changes the result and use the attached image as the visual reference; done means the demos play without the reported glitches.
