Does not work on Pegasos

It works on all Amiga's and on Amithlon, so I assume it's a MOS bug really. Can you send me a snoopdos log please?

Thanks,

I'm curious about why no 3.x/68k full version when you've compiled the demo for it.

The demo is there so people can see now what the features will be like. It will not be released on 68k because of performance issues, the fact that I want to use OS4 specific features (even more so in future with new components like audio that will never be released on other systems) and it's just time to move on. If we all stick with 68k we will all be responsible for killing the platform. If more and more apps will be released for OS4 (or MOS for that matter), people are more likely to buy the new hardware and keep the platform alive. Another issue is support. I already see problems with badly behaving drivers on a single platform, I don't want to spend my time on problems from other platforms.

And after all, this is about fun, not 'business', so I generally tend to go the way of the least trouble.

Kind regards,

Davy

P.S. Thanks for all the nice comments!  :-)  :-)

Just out of curiosity, I noticed on the webpage that recording with the Repulse sound card is not supported. Have you tested things with the Prelude? I had problems with Prostation Audio and Prelude (even though PSA used AHI). Other apps recorded fine with the Prelude, I just had problems with PSA

I have a Prelude which works excellent. You have to have the correct combination of drivers though, drop me an email if you have problems and I'll sent you mine.
I'm working with the Repulse author to get the recording problems solved. The Delfina Flipper is also not working correctly and Teemu seems unwilling to reply.

Happy Birthday Davy!

Nope. Still tries to open asl v44.

After fixing this, I discovered that the DSP process also opened the ASL library, so I did another update quickly, but probably not in time.

Try downloading the DSP module from here and copy it to the modules directory please:

If it still doesn't work then, contact me by email.
