Hi,
I'm looking for something like a tutorial for SDI that explains everything - step by step - in a simple way.
Ps: Where can i find the digi-version of SDI?? |

Quote: Ok, now I got the docs :-)
But, it is still complicated....
and there are some other problems:
How can I run it with the MMC64?
FAT16 does not allow to use filenames that contains a ">".
It is really annoying that SDI shows the rastertime. Hi hate that
flickering on the screen :-=
How can I hack SDI in order that no rastertime is shown (maybe with a hexeditor?)
Easy hacking solution: put a piece of black tape on the screen and the raster time flickering is gone!!
Seriously, have you tried with VICE built in monitor? I managed to do some hacking with it a few times. |

Nata,
Here's how to hack it:
Run editor.
When the sdi screen appears press shift+runstop.
Go to monitor:
hunt $0800-$3000 for lda #$3e
hunt $da00-$e000 for cmp #$3e
replace $3e with a sign or letter you want instead.
save"sdi.bin",8,0801,fff7
Then crunch the saved file.
(exomizer.exe -s$080d sdi.bin -o sdi.exo)
I dont know much about your mmcc64, but I can tell you this:
The editor uses several kernal calls that are ment for
drive talking.
It won't work with IDE64 because of this.

you're probably the first person from which I heard, that he don't like raster flickering :) It's very useful sometimes and it's the part of alot of music editors for C64... Especially when you're trying to compose a multispeed song...
SDI is da best! :) |

Any chance that there will be a version that allows to save+load from mmc64?

Wait for updated MMC64-BIOS which supports most kernal-calls and/or has serial emulation :) |

I've fixed SDI to work with IDE64 for Sad/Padua in November or so. He'd also like to have directory navigation built in. Any possibility to add at least a "Send DOS command" prompt?

Soci:
Does your fixes work with Commodore and CMD drives as well?
If yes --> I would like to install it as default.
I have never written a send dos command myself,
hope you got a short source i can learn from.

It does work of course with other devices too. Command channel example taken from the user's guide:
This opens command channel and sends an init command:
lda #2 ;filenumber
ldx $ba ;last drive
ldy #15 ;channel
jsr $ffba ;setparam
lda #0
jsr $ffbd ;setname (none)
jsr $ffc0 ;open
ldx #2 ;filenumber
jsr $ffc9 ;chkout
lda #"i" ;init command
jsr $ffd2 ;chrout
jsr $ffcc ;clrchn
And this will display the error message:
ldx #2 ;filenumber
jsr $ffc6 ;chkin
jsr $ffcf ;read
jsr $ffd2 ;print
bit $90
bvc *-8
jsr $ffcc ;clrchn
close error channel
lda #2
jsr $ffc3
done.
