Quote: For the last couple of days, I have been trying out VICEplus for the first time. Apart from some nice features such as 8580 digi boost and backtracking in the monitor, I have seen several raster bugs (flickering etc) so far. At first I did not suspect the VICEplus to be blamed, so I did not care to compare with the original VICE release. But after seeing it many times here and there, I just did a comparison on the last thing I have viewed: Channel 4 (There is a flicker between the TV graphic and the scroller.)



Confirmed.

Although the bulk of the release is based on 1.22.8 there are actually a few cherry picked parts from 1.22.9 in it.
This particular regression is due to a "bad" merge of 1.22.9 into raster/raster.h.
It slipped by us because of very limited testing of x64.

It has been fixed in the repository.

Snapshot build (r628) for win32 here: http://www.kahlin.net/~tlr/dtv/x64-x64dtv-628-win32.zip

Thanks for reporting this Wisdom!

BTW, this means that it is now a "REAL MACHINE, OMG!" in WVL's test prog...

Also thanx for the excellent and now usable mouse emulation under Linux. ;D \o/

A bug that has been there since all times (for me at least with my Linux distro) is when starting x64 with a .prg file and immediatly hitting alt-w for warpspeed loading. That almost always causes x64 to deadlock. It's ok to hit alt-w after loading, but hitting it when loading never works. It works flawlessly when starting with a .d64 file though.

Tested and confirmed: yes slightly off the colours scale using x64dtv. The new pal emulation works 50 fps without double scan lines but double size, but with double scanlines and double size i get about 3 fps (2.4 ghz p4 processor, windows).
