SIDFX on Sidplay64

Hello users,
For anyone interested - I have implemented SIDFX
support in the latest Sidplay64 beta available at:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/sidplay64/

I have only tested it with the 1541u2, and it works great.

I welcome any feedback here on how it works with other devices
before I release it.

I notice various bugs happening after playing certain sid tunes. Is this also something you want feedback on?

@fenz. yes. Especially if those sids plays fine with the non-sidfx versions.

Ok, new version beta 2 up on sourceforge.
Check it to see if it detects sid#1 and sid# correctly.
It doesnt matter what sid# port you have your sids in.
Just make sure you got TWO. :)

Still plays with the wrong SID here (build date 13.05)

The SID selector switch is set in the middle position, and the second switch set at Stereo D400/D420. SIDFX config tool detects SID1=8580, SID2=6581.

Could you display the model/slot of the detected SIDs in the startup screen perhaps?

My sidfx switch 2 is set to center position. And configured to be in Mono.

Dont know if that has to do with anything.

Ok, set SW#2 to mono now, but didn't fix it.

I use the same config as GRG, meaning: 6581 == SID1 and 8580 == SID2. But when I change it to Fenz's config (physically switching the SIDs),I see the same symptoms as Fenz describes.

It almost seems like something is hardcoded to always play 6581 tunes in SID1 and 8580 tunes in SID2.

It's weird, the least to say. I have switched back to my old config since that works with SP64.

Ah, crap, ofcourse. It's another bug in my code when checking for unknown or faulty sid's that causes this.. when these two states are recognized it reverts to recommended sidfx setup which is 6581 in #1 and 8580 in #2.
