Delfina lite + AHI + 060 + OS3.9 woes....
« on: April 08, 2003, 04:43:17 PM »
First of all, here's my current setup:
- Amiga 4000 Desktop
- CyberStorm MK III 060/50 w/64megs of ram on board
- 2 megs chip
- CyberVision 64/3D + scandoubler
- Delfina Lite
- Sunrize AD1012
- XSurf

Running OxyRon Patcher, CyberGraphx v3, OS 3.9, AsimCDFS.

I'm currently using version 4.14 of delfina.library.

Let's see.  I use "delfinit" instead of "delfmem", and it seems to work great.   DelfPrefs, DelfFx and DelfLoad programs all seem to be running fine and I don't get any "delfina has crashed" requestors popping up.

When I run "delfmpeg", I get a "delfina.library" has crashed "suspend/reboot" requesters but everything plays no problem.  The only difference from when the requester doesn't pop up is that when it pops up and "suspend" is chosen, it will exit the program once the MP3 stopped playing, otherwise it pops up another requester.  If I try and play an MP3 from the CD drive, I get the suspend/reboot notification and the program actually freezes.

I can't seem to get AHI working reliably at all.  

After a coold boot.  I try the MP3 playing software bundled with OS3.9 and it sounds horrible.  I tried tweaking my AHI settings but to no avail.  (It sounds better when I configure it to use the paula.device directly.)

When I try Simon the Sorcerer II, I have to supply my own settings.  If I choose the Delfina, it pretty much freezes.

I'm open to suggestions.

Oh, on top of all of this, I notice some minor graphical glitces as well.

a) I sometimes see splotches on worbench.
b) MUI sometimes doesn't draw things correctly.

I also can't run certain programs until after the workbench started up completly.  (IE: AmiDOCK, rawbinfo all seem to crash the system if they run during the WBStartup phase.  Once Workbench is up and running, then I can load them up.)

I'm familliar with the "fake requestor".  

But the problem is when I use DelfMPEG to play an MP3 off of a CD, it actually freezes the program.  If I copy the same MP3 to my harddrive, it works.

Is there some incompatibility with AsimCDFS?  

Anyone know how reliable the "CDMount" built in to the CyberStorm MK III is?

I'm still unsure what's wrong with AHI though.

I was curious to try the "Tocatta Emulation" to see if I can get around my AHI problems by installing the Tocatta AHI Driver.  That just produced silence.   :-?  

Is there Tocatta only sound software that I can use to test to see if the Tocatta Emulation is actually properly installed?

I'll try delftweak, thanks.

Let me know if you can't get my address from my profile.  I could only find the library from the Petsoff website. Is there a mailing list or someplace where people discuss the DelfinaLite and where we can get newer versions of the software?

Thanks.
Steph

Thanks for your help.  I'll be trying this all out when I get home.  I can confirm that these files are sitting in my e-mail account. :)

Though I dont use Delfmpeg now.
I use Amplifier configured to work with delfinampeg.library 1.5 that can be found on Aminet.


Wah?  I can't seem to find this on aminet.   At least, not the mirror I've got.

About Simon2:  Using latest update for Simon2 I can use Delfina via AHI to hear sound. Unfortunately theres no music.


Updates?  hmm... gotta look for those too. :P

Well...  Here's the results so far:

a) I used "FallenOne"'s version of the library.  and I don't get the fake requester anymore...  Also tried DelfTweak and delfinampeg.device.  Seems to work fine!

b) I used the AHI Pref's that "FallenOne" gave me but I think there's a problem, I just can't seem to get any sound now.  I'll probably need to reinstall AHI I think.  I stopped trying to use SimonII as a test and jumped to Foundation Gold and Quake.  Foundation was quiet, Quake came up with an error requestor saying the audio list was corrupted.

c) Where can I get the 3.9's boing bags?  I don't have either.

Thanks again.
Steph

Yup, I've got a few fans in there.

My PSU is actually outside of the case (converted a PC PSU), and in the cavity is another fan blowing out.  I've also put a fan on top of the accellerator.
