Kung Fu Flash Cartridge Aggiornamento Firmware v1.37

E’ stato rilasciato un nuovo aggiornamento firmware per la Kung Fu Flash Cartridge di Kim Jørgensen.

Changelog:

  • Optimize VIC-II read access for ultimax cartridges (issue #94)
  • Disk emulation support large PRGs
  • Improve disk emulation loading speed
  • Load and mount is now default for PRGs

The Return of the HybridSID Player PCB rev v2.0

18 February 2022 Nessun commento

The Return of the HybridSID Player PCB rev v2.0 by Xad/Nightfall & Gianluca Renzi (RetroBit Lab). Basato sul progetto di Markus Gritsch pubblicato negli anni 2011-2015 sul forum dangerousprotypes. Grazie Markus.

Dopo la prima revisione dello stampato ci siamo accorti che c’erano alcuni problemi di progettazione e di conseguenza di un corretto funzionamento.

Qui di seguito una breve descrizione dei fix e miglioramenti che sono stati fatti per la nuova versione dello stampato del SID Player.

PCB rev v2.0 St.Valentine’s day version:

  • OLED non si spegneva con l’interuttore di power on/off.
  • Pinout errato dello switch ALPS e di conseguenza non si poteva alimentare lo stampato tramite alimentatore/power bank USB.
  • Rimosso diodo Zener.
  • Aggiunti due nuovi ponticelli per selezionare (AB – BA) per l’encoder rotativo.
  • Encoder Rotativo 20 passi, il precedente era errato.
  • Rimosso circuito per lo switch dei due LED per segnalare che SID viene utilizzato per la riproduzione del brano.
  • Rimappati i due LED switch SID su due piedini MCU (RB15 – LED SOCKET #1, RB12 – LED SOCKET #2)
  • Rimossa la possibilita’ di utilizzare OLED 0.96″
  • Allineato OLED 1.3″ sulla linea del ZIF Socket.
  • Spostato segnale di reset che veniva utilizzato dall’OLED 0.96 sul connettore free pins.
  • Sistemati i fori per fissaggio OLED 1.3″
  • Rimappati i seguenti pins (RD5 – SID_RW, RD6 – SID2_CS, RB9 – KEY_FFWD, RB10 – KEY_PAUSE) per liberare piedini 5v tolerant.
  • Aggiunte due nuove resistenze di pull-up per tasto PAUSA e FFWD.
  • Riprogettato tutto lo stadio amplificazione per l’uscita cuffia utilizzando TPA6111A2 e NE5532.
  • Ottimizzazione PCB tracks.
  • Facilitato il DEBUG della CPU creando una “cornice” dove ogni PAD corrisponde ad un piedino della MCU.

Mega Blaster 2 (Sega Music player) Aggiornamento firmware v1.28

E’ stata rilasciata una nuova versione del firmware per il Mega Blaster 2 di Aidan Lawrence.

Il Mega Blaster 2 di Aidan Lawrence è un lettore hardware di brani musicali di videogiochi (VGM) Sega Genesis/Mega Drive e per riprodurli utilizza i chip audio originali utilizzati dalla console.

Changelog from version v0.1 to 1.28:

  • 1.28: This firmware update fixes two things:
  • The PSG frequency register now updates when only the low-byte is written to. This is uncommon on VGM files for “real” genesis games, but occasionally occurs on some homebrew tracks, causing the PSG to sound out-of-tune or flat out incorrect. Thank you to @natarii for solving that issue and graciously sharing your solution.
  • FM channel muting has been fixed. Previous versions were targeting incorrect key-on registers.
  • 1.27: Added a new sync-tone feature.
  • For users looking to sync-up individual channel audio streams in their external recording software, this update adds a “Sync-tone” feature that may give you a helping hand.
  • When the sync-tone feature is enabled, every unmuted FM and PSG channel will emit three tones on and off, 250ms between each key on/off. Then, 250ms later, the track will start. The YM2612/3438 use FM Channel 6 for PCM samples sent to the DAC, therefore, you can sync the PCM track using Channel 6.
  • This update is handy for syncing up oscilloscope videos. You can mute all but one sound chip channel at a time, record your ‘scope video, then do the same for each channel. The sync-tone will help you find the starting point of each stream, even if a particular channel is muted at the start of a soundtrack.
  • Pro tip: The PSG’s 3rd square-wave channel and noise channel will interact with one another if they are both un-muted at the same time. If both channels are active when the sync-tone is played, the PSG may sound detuned or inconsistent. It’s recommended to only have either the 3rd square wave channel OR the noise channel un-muted at a time.
  • 1.26: Fixed DAC stream playback.
  • 1.25: Fixes shuffle RNG.
  • Music player used to select the same sequence of songs every time. This patch correctly calls the built-in true random number generator (TRNG) on the microcontroller to generate new random sequences of songs on every boot.
  • 1.24: New Feature: Individual channel muting for both FM and PSG courtesy of @renedare
  • You can toggle each FM and PSG channel individually by going to the new “Channel Control” menu by scrolling down the Main Menu.
  • There, you can toggle each individual channel “ON” and “OFF.”
  • If you’ve ever wanted to deconstruct a Genesis soundtrack into it’s constitute instruments, this update is for you!
  • This feature is experimental, but works quite well already.
  • DAC streams and PCM samples are played out of FM Channel 6.
  • 1.23: OPTIONAL
  • This firmware allows for SI5351(A) variant clock generators to be used. This new firmware will detect if your unit is using a SI5351 or SI5351A clock generator and will configure it automatically. These devices are functionally identical but have different I2C addresses. There’s no difference in performance between these two parts.
  • This change was made to allow for component choice flexibility given the current electronics component shortage occurring as of mid-2021.
  • 1.22: Fixed the following bugs:
  • Folders with a large number of files incorrectly reported their index, causing strange out-of-order issues while in the “IN_ORDER” playback mode.
  • “SHUFFLE_ALL” and “SHUFFLE_DIR” playback modes had a couple of issues regarding file indexing as well, causing the player to overflow it’s random file history list and subsequently pick invalid file indexes when traversing through the random track history.
  • Random track history has been extended to 20 tracks; up from 5.
  • 1.21: Prevent writing to the OPN2 test registers (0×21 and 0x2C)
  • Some broken VGM files will write to these registers and cause huge distortion issues. This is technically an illegal operation and by blocking these writes, a few common broken VGM packs now function correctly, such as:
  • Rocket Knight Adventures
  • Comix Zone (also has some minor messed up PCM stuff, but that’s in the domain of the VGM author, not my player)
  • 1.2:This new patch fixes a bug that prevented sequential folders beginning with the same substring from being opened correctly. Thanks to Bill over at the SdFat project for the help!
  • 1.1: The manifest system has been removed in favor of a dynamic system at the expense of a bit more compute time and RAM usage.
  • The manifest system was fairly slow and unreliable, especially when the SD card was filled with lots of files.
  • You will no longer have to wait at startup for the manifest to build or verify itself.
  • I’ve also put in a check for useless meta folders like System Volume Information and .DS_Store
  • If these are found on the root directory, the are removed on boot. If these meta files are found after entering a directory, they will be removed after selecting a track. These may still show up in your file menu temporarily, but should go away after a refresh and never appear again unless the SD card is re-written to.
  • 1.0: Double-tap the RESET button and drag the firmware.uf2 file onto the “drive” that pops up on your computer to flash!
  • 0.1: The very first firmware release! Here’s to the future!

    • C128 Normal Cartridge (external function ROM)
  • Combined PAL and NTSC firmware.
  • T64 support (normal tape files only). Thanks Matthias.
    • The firmware has been extended to support both PAL and NTSC and this requires the KungFuFlash_v1.30.upd file to be kept in the root directory of the SD card.
    • Older firmware will not support this extended format so KungFuFlash_v1.30_upgrade.upd must be used first. This file is not needed after the upgrade process has been completed.
  • Fix broken EasyFlash VIC-II/C128 mode. Thanks mrr19121970.
  • Improve detection of C64 clock signal.
  • Add simple diagnostic tool.

Changelog (v0024):

  • PDS/COV/COS files run PDSPLAY/COVPLAY/COSPLAY
  • added ability to select (TAB) CAR files
  • selected files (ATR, CAS, CAR) don’t have to be in the same directory anymore, selection is cleared only after returning to the selector
  • ENTER on ATR/CAS/CAR file will replace the selection so SPACE was added to run with selected files, ignoring current file under cursor
  • search now allows navigation during searching and editing search string
  • CTRL-L disables item shortcuts and allows starting search by typing instead of ‘/’
  • ESC stops search, exiting search requires 2x ESC (to prevent accidental exit when search stops at the same time user tries to stop it)
  • disable cart was changed to SHIFT-ESC
  • short filenames should finally (hopefully) have proper case
  • filenames longer than screen width should be (finally) properly sorted
  • type 57 (2kB) fixed
  • right cart button will disable cart for carts <= 16kB (to make some CS turbo carts work)

New keys:

  • SPACE – run selected files (ignores item under cursor)
  • CTRL-L – toggle key shortcuts

Changed keys:

  • ESC -> SHIFT-ESC (disable cart and reboot)

Changelog (v0023):

  • [ECI] Auto-enable cart menu after reset (CTRL-SHIFT-E to enable, CTRL-E to disable)
  • [ECI] Patched OS for ATR emulation is forced as ROM, not just loaded into RAM under ROM, increases compatibility
  • [ECI+SIO] When emulating ATR, HSIO patched OS with inverted OPTION (BASIC off) is forced

Changelog (v0022):

  • [ECI] EXTMEM support up to 512kB (CTRL-SHIFT-M to enable, CTRL-M to disable)

Nuovo firmware per The return of the Hybrid Sid Player v1.17

The return of the Hybrid Sid Player by xAD/Nightfall & Gianluca Renzi (RetroBit Lab)

Basato sul progetto di Markus Gritsch pubblicato negli anni 2011-2015 sul forum dangerousprotypes. Grazie Markus.

Changelog:

v1.17 – 31/12/2021

Added:

  • Change visualization status of the LED for Socket #1 and Socket #2 available on the Olimex Development Board and the SID Player PCB.
  • A configuration file (config.ini) for some important settings of the SID Player. The file will be loaded during the boot and must be present in the ROOT of the filesystem of the USB key.If the file is not found, the player will configure itself with the default values. Thanks to Gianluca Renzi (RetroBit Lab) for his lite INI file parser.

Below is an excerpt from the “config.ini” file.

# Select the Sid model for the Tune played by the SID Player on the Socket #1 or Socket #2.
# Specify the socket which you want to play the sid tunes (example for SID_8580_SOCKET write
# the number 2 if you want it to be played with the SID 8580 installed on socket #2)
# This configuration makes the use very dynamic for everyone. – default: socket #1,#1,#2,#2
TUNE_UNKNOWN_SOCKET=1
TUNE_6581_SOCKET=1
TUNE_8580_SOCKET=2
TUNE_BOTH_SOCKET=2
# Use Armsid with Auto Switching (0:Disabled – 1:Socket #1 – 2:Socket #2) – default: 0
# Note: When you use the auto detection and switching of the SID model with the ARMSID this can be
# used only in one of the two sockets, the other socket is completely ignored and can remain empty.
ARMSID_SOCKET=0
# Brightness of the OLED. (0 … 255) – default: 127
OLED_BRIGHTNESS=127
# Brightness of the OLED in IDLE mode. (0 … 255) – default: 10
OLED_BRIGHTNESS_IDLE=10
# Enable the serial DEBUG. (1 Enable | 0 Disabled) – default: 0
