Trunk

• Config split
  • Datadir uses machine_name as before, config/hotkeys/fliplist/etc (should) use machine_get_name() instead
  • Use "VSID" for vsid
    • Due to the config split, it is finally possible to have VSID config/hotkeys/etc
  • Use "C64SC" for x64sc
    • NOTE: data/C64 is still used for x64sc
    • TODO: check config/etc file names/usage for: win32 (especially if the shared C64/win_shortcuts.vsc is problematic)
  • Use "CBM-II-5x0" for xcbm2 -model 510
    • Should get rid of segfaults when using different models with same config
    • TODO: check config/etc file names/usage for: win32 (especially if the shared CBM-II/win_shortcuts.vsc is problematic)

• chris/v2.1-quicktime [2.1.2]
  • NEW: added QuickTime movie exporter (on Mac OS X for now)
  • API: introduced new soundmovie.c sound exporter
  • API: gfxoutput.h: extended interace of gfxoutputdrv_t

gfxoutputdrv_format_t *formatlist; // optional format list for exporter
void (*shutdown)(void);
int (*resources_init)(void);
int (*cmdline_options_init)(void);

• • Tested: Mac+Cocoa, Mac+Gtk, Mac+Xaw
  • Open: Adapted all UIs to use generic formatlist from extended gfxoutput_drv interface

• soundrework.
  • oversampling setting removed. Oversampling is a bad, mostly unused solution for slightly improved audio quality. We can just do proper resamplers for machines that need it.
  • shorter sound buffer requires using audio buffers to their capacity. Some drivers may exhibit bugs with bufferspace() hook when audio buffer gets completely filled. These should be identified by bad behaviour on low latency setting such as 50 ms, while other sound drivers on same system might still work.

2.2.5 (r22607)

• Expert Cartridge (r226xx)
  • renamed Resource: "Expert" to "ExpertCartridgeEnabled" (toggle)
  • TODO: ports that use cartridge_attach_image(CARTRIDGE_EXPERT, NULL) (which will now fail!) must now simply set "ExpertCartridgeEnabled" to 1 to enable use cartridge_enable(CARTRIDGE_EXPERT) (as with other carts).
  • renamed Resource: "CartridgeMode" to "ExpertCartridgeMode" (enum: 0=off 1=prg 2=on)

2.2.7 (r22889)

• Remove 'IEC' references from user visible printer descriptions in both commandline options and uis

2.2.11 (r23530)

• CIA model 6526x removed (r23531)
  • No 6526 without the timer B bug encountered, hence 6526 replaced with former "6526x". The CIA models are (see cia.h):
    • "6526" is the old CIA
    • "6526A" is the new CIA
  • TODO: remove 6526x UI item from the following ports: -

    • Resource: IDE64Cylinders has become IDE64Cylinders1, IDE64Cylinders2, IDE64Cylinders3 and IDE64Cylinders4.
    • Resource: IDE64Heads has become IDE64Heads1, IDE64Heads2, IDE64Heads3 and IDE64Heads4.
    • Resource: IDE64Sectors has become IDE64Sectors1, IDE64Sectors2, IDE64Sectors3 and IDE64Sectors4.
