Re: Controllers

For me personally, I've got a PS5 controller in use with MiSTer (as well as an M30). Both are connected using a bluetooth dongle and I've not noticed any problems with either. Both will power off after a period of inactivity. I think to make the PS5 controller power down when not in use, in the mister.ini file you just have to specify the value of ...

Re: 2-computer split-screen Amiga/Minimig core?

Hi Limi,

This is a really interesting post. I'd be highly curious to know whether something like this is actually possible. I remember successfully getting Super Skidmarks linked between me and my brother's Amiga many years ago (as well as Lotus 2 and Stunt Car Racer). Was great fun and felt really advanced at the time!

If you have a free moment, would you at all mind running 'iwlist freq' at the console to see if the 5ghz channels are listed?

Re: 2.4GHz & 5GHz WiFi Adapter

For some time I've been using a Canakit USB WiFi adapter on my MiSTer. The Canakit adapter worked fine, but it operates only on the 2.4GHz band, so it was prone to losing its connection whenever the microwave was in use. I shopped around for a USB WiFi adapter that was dual-band, and found the "TP-Link Nano AC600 USB Wifi Adapter(Archer T2U N...

Re: CAVE 68000 Any News for MiSTer

Really odd - everything seems to works fine for me. 128mb module, RBF/ROM up to date/current - I can run at 57/60Mhz w/ SDRAM selected (coupled with any vsync_adjust setting), and I have no graphical issues with any combination. I wonder what might be going on. Hopefully it can be fixed soon for those who are experiencing issues.

Re: Audio not working correctly for A1200

Hi, The issue is there, but if not familiar with the game(s) it is potentially hard to notice. I did some tests on WinUAE and the issue is there too when using 68020 as the processor - however if you enable 'cycle exact' it goes away. As far as I know 68020 implementation in MiSTer is not cycle exact, which explains why the issue exists. In the oth...

This should force all games to run in PAL mode until the next reset. I guess this essentially does the same thing ...

Strange 68020 audio glitching on a handful of games

Hi there, I was hoping someone with some technical knowledge of the Minimig core might be able to help with this. There may be a simple explanation for it or maybe it's just the way the core works in 68020 mode. Anyhow, the issue - so, for example, when using the MegaAGS image, this uses WHDload games and the HDF has to be run on a 68020 processor ...

Perfect - sounds great! No problem with testing, happy to help where I can. So far things are looking positive and everything is working fine.

Re: Main Screen shows black bars on top and bottom when using integer scaling in 1080p.

Yeah, I noticed this too just the other day in fact. Originally I thought an update might have caused it - then I realised the only change i'd made is switching integer scaling on in full. If I change it to 25%, 50%, or off the 'snow' will display full screen (running 1080p). Above explanation makes total sense as to why it behaves like this, thank...

Did a bit more testing with the latest release.

This ties in with the comments on this PR which mention the LED and the PR unfortunatel...

Re: Xbox Wireless Adapter Driver (xow) Ready for Testing

Great thank you! I will give it a go as soon as it's ready. It'll be obvious if it helps or not as the issue is very easy to replicate - even though the intervals between each idle desync/resync can vary, ultimately it still happens on every boot and the first desync/resync is "usually" only after 30 seconds or so of idle time.

Thanks!
