I think it would be nice to do this... to use drumbox output in another sequencer or other future music software on the 2X. That said, this feature is not at the top of the list atm which is geared towards obvious improvements like load/save patterns etc. I'll bear it in mind though.

this was meant to be 2X news, can somebody move it for me please? :) thanks

Here is v0.1a of my GP2X drum machine 'drumbox', it's got 10 ch. 44.1khz 16 bit sound and it's ultimately meant to be a serious music app rather than a dick-around toy, although its early days so it's a bit more like the latter atm :P download it here, then start russling up some tasty...

Hi, I've compiled my app and it runs fine from the PC's hard drive mounted over samba. However, when I try to run the files from the GP2X's SD the app quits to the menu immediately. Does anyone know any common reasons for this sort of thing happening? Thanks, Rooster

I'd like to see AC97 audio codec support. If the owners still demand their extortionate fees for this (which they will) I'd like some top Korean boffin at GPH to have an 'accident' and accidentally slip his prototype into his emule shared folder. Oops! That said, piracy is wrong so if you've...

You can ftp directly in from windows explorer with: ftp://root@10.1.0.235/../mnt/sd/ (assuming your GP2X has the IP in your example obviously)

100% agree with this. I'm all for individually styling apps and games but the difference between one emulator and the next in terms of menu navigation + button presses is crazy. There's the 'A-Button should mean select' camp and the 'No!-B-Button like the main GP2X menu' school...

Omniquiti Lathe 1.5 transcodes everything and anything into divx/xvid @ 320x240 perfect for GP2X idiot proof operation (although that's not a function i'd benefit from) - just set the target resolution and start. works great for downloaded movies... don't know about DVDs.

I got one of the Mk II machines with v2.0 firmware a few weeks ago and it works a treat - there are no problems whatsoever. I was sceptical because I had looked on forums like this and heard complaints but many of the complaints related to OLD editions and OLD firmwares. I can tell you that...

what does that mean? it will damage it? it will shorten its life? it will screw the data on it?

Franxis, I remember this happening when the first MAME Rainbow Island drivers appeared on the PC. I remember there was talk about encryption issues with this ROM which I know they resolved in later Rainbow Islands drivers. Is this sprite problem on the Mame G2x Rainbow Islands an encryption...

I've been a MAME user since 1997 so I'm well pleased with my GP2X having over a thousand arcade ROMs. its interesting though to see which ones work on the move and which don't :) I have to recommend a game I've been playing recently "Block Out" (which was apparently out on C64, Genesis, Lynx...

I don't agree that emulation by its very nature is inaccurate. I believe that emulators are only inaccurate when they fail in the emulation task in some capacity. If a specific piece of hardware has ALL the capability of another piece of inferior hardware then a 100% emulation is definitely...

it should also be said that the Sonic 3 mentioned there was the european PAL region ROM so the 50-52 fps he got on his GP2X @ 260Mhz is full frame rate and the same as the real megadrive hardware.

yeah i just played metal slug through again and its the fastest yet for sure! good job! i noticed on league bowling and top player's golf with the new asm zooming code from the last version - there are a lot of missing pixels on the left edge during a zoom although it is obviously much faster.

Great work once again Franxis! re: these optimizations in the M6809 core - with 'Double Dragon bootleg' running on 3x 6809s do you know if it runs noticably faster than v2.3 ??? dying to know, I spent many a happy day skipping school playing that old favourite in the bus station :)

GP2X is 15.7x better than the GP32 last time I measured it with my apparatus. that's nothing to do with speed, just a direct measurement of general betterness on the traditional scale of 1 to 17. re: nethack - there's nothing like taking on the role of an enchanted question mark on a quest to...

here's a list of exciting peripherals you CAN add to your GP2X at present:

I fail to see how a bounty sceme in any way detracts from making people happy or the authors gaining prestige around the scene. Donations are going on and coexisting with making people happy and the authors gaining prestige and nobody seems to object to that. anyway who knows? perhaps like...

I know homebrew developers do what they do as a great generousity to the community Critical - rather than for remuneration I don't think anyone would dispute that. That's part of what drew me to the gp2x, the spirit of the platform. All I'm saying is that if donations via a bounty scheme...
