VICE threaded UI test builds
In this thread i will post test builds of the (hopefully) soon to be merged threaded ui rewrite.
Linux and OSX users can always grab the current state from dqh's git repo here: https://github.com/dqh-github/vice-experiments/tree/threaded-ui.. (make sure to checkout the "threaded-ui-exp" branch after cloning the repo)
Please test and report back positive and negative results. Especially interesting right now are rendering errors/problems and unexpected crashes. Please tell exactly what OS you are using, and what GPU.
I will keep posting new windows builds here - starting with todays: https://sourceforge.net/projects/vice-emu/files/experimental%20..
64bit only right now - i'll have to figure out how to build proper 32bit binaries on my box (not that you should be still using a 32bit OS in 2020). |

:) Not the slightest! The only carts I use in VICE are those I wrote myself. :D |

The one that is different in Atomic/NR? What was wrong in the AR and RR implementation in vice? I might have known but don't remember anymore unfortunately. |

just recompiled latest threaded-ui-exp (commit f381f0f8d32df215f11005c53f1b49c8ac4de364) on linux.
runs pretty great! but two minor bugs got introduced (longer ago, also my prev builds have the bug): the drive led doesnt work and track/sector display only shows "18.5".
must say, I truly appreciate all the recent work you guys are doing, improvements are huge, keep it up! :)
and feel free to reach out if you need someone to test something on linux, happy to pull 'n build whenever. |

Thanks Burglar, you're the first to mention the drive LED and related not being updated :) They're disabled on purpose at the moment because of needing a non-trivial change to make it safe to update those from the non-UI thread. But they'll be sorted out soon. |

yes, mode $22 - you'll see the fix soon, i'll also commit elaborate test programs soonish. (AR is already fixed and prints warnings to the log...) |

Cool! But mode $22 for Atomic/NR was correct already, yes? |

nope =P it was broken everywhere (aka: nobody uses nordic power), including 1541U and chameleon. see https://sourceforge.net/p/vice-emu/patches/230/ (please lets continue there....) |

Happy to see it run very smooth on Win10, I've been using offensively old VICE versions for a long time. Only thing I noticed was that sometimes after startup and loading a disk, audio latency was high (> 1 sec). This got fixed by fiddling with the sound buffering settings, now have smallest fragment size and "adjusting" sync method, and the high latency hasn't reappeared so far. |
