SIDPlay64 V0.3 Released
This is a program that can playback sid files from the
HVSC collection on a real c64. (http://hvsc.c64.org/)
Features:
---------
* Supports most CBM and CMD drive types and runs from the device currently selected.
It is recommended to use Action Replay/Retro Replay.
* It can handle 196 files in the playlist.
A 1541 disk can only handle 144 files. Other drive types can handle more.
* It detects if the file loaded is a HVSC sid file. (only version 2 sid files)
* Two playlist functions: play next tune in list or play tunes at a random selection.
* The program relocates itself according to startPage (relocStartPage)
and pageLength (relocPages) found in the sid header.
Possible relocation area is: $0400-$d000
* SID Tunes that doesnt use timers (dc04/dc05) is played back in PAL or NTSC speed.
If the video standard for the tune is unknown, playback will be PAL speed.

A question:
Wondering if some sids use the default latch value without setting them.
For tunes depending on dc04/dc05 timers, can I assume all
of them sets dc04/dc05 in the init routine. ?

No, sometimes the CIA values are set in the playroutine. For example timed CIA rips (that is, not playing at equal timing intervals) do this. Some others with shuffled play adress also use the CIA timer in PLAY (for example 1003/1003/1006). |

(grrrr csdb system crapped out and didnt store my original reply :/ sessiontimeout, anyone?)
anyway...
Thanks Steppe, and yea, realsidplay was about as stable as a drunk clown in a circus... <g>
Glenn, nmi/digis drove me crazy back then, but it sorta was before the creation of _PSID rips, and more important, the ones without that extention, right? never looked into the actual differences....
and the relocating, yea that should be the cleanest solution, maybe covering a bigger area would be nice ;) (f400-ffff?;)
anyhow, keep it up!

IMPRESSIVE, AWESOME, BRILLIANT, just what the world has been waiting for years!!!!! No more painful conversion from .sid to .prg format finding the init and play adresses of each tune. In my SUPERBIKE project (Bike 64 Project V2.0) I implemented a self detector (inspired from you GRG), which played only 50 Hz tunes in .prg format which started with
jmp init_adress
jmp play_adress
...but this player goes far ahead!!! All other sid players for the real c64 belong to the past, you Glenn brought us the future!!! |

Looks nice. I could help you to get out an IDE64 compatible version, if you'd like.

Looks like we had the same idea. :)
MTR/Viruz asked me if it worked on MMC64, but I didn't know exactly, so I had a peek on it and tested on IDE64.
After replacing a couple of the incompatible calls it's ok.

Far from being perfect (no error message is retieved now) but works. |

Also got a fix from Soci here yesterday.
The next update will contain ide64 support and a
fast loader.
