Re: [hatari-devel] Falcon video counter

Hi Eero,

Thanks for this patch (remind me the command to include it in the current version please).

I'll have more time now that Sillyventure is over.
I'd like to retry to finish tyhe Videl code I did 3 years ago. (it let Pinball dream work much better than the current version, but need a better accurate CPU)

I'll test this patch.

Hi,

Since Laurent moved all Videl register handling to falcon/videl.c
(sometime after Hatari v1.6), several programs have been broken
because that removed support for Falcon video address counter.

Attached is patch adding minimal support for that.  It fixes
"Lasers and Hommes" (DLDH2), that doesn't anymore freeze at
startup.  I assume the patch to fix most, if not all of those
regressions, but I haven't had yet time to test them.


Any comments on the patch?  Additional things that should be
taken into account / fixed (or at least add TODOs for)?

PS. Note that the patch needs to modify few items saved into
memory snapshots, so it breaks memory snapshot compatibility.
