I haven't changed anything in the .ini file. I've tried later to enable the wav writer, and this one is working fine, but not the vgm writer...

Also maybe youve changed something in the .ini file

yes smile

But even if I didn't play it, I guess we should at least get the "bip" when the gameboy boots up.

Anyway, the gameboy_###.vgm file which was generated grew as my song was playing, and it eventually increased as much as 600 kb while I was at mid-song. Then I stopped it, and quit the gameboy emulator. I tried to replay the song in a vgm player, but I got no sound. I also tried the vgm2gb convertor, I got no error but the resulting file (which was also like 600 kb) didn't play anything.

And the vgm file is happening in the root folder for mess.exe. However the vgm file remains silent sad

The vgm recording starts automatically for me. It creates a vgm file where the mess.exe is located. Try some game or a Snorpung demo for example

It worked for me and I could launch gameboy and load lsdj. However, my .sav file was not recognised so I don't know how to load my lsdj songs...

And even if vgmwrite is set to 1 in the mess.ini I don't know how to activate the recording, but maybe it's only from the command line...

You have to put the bios file (gameboy.zip gbcolor.zip etc) into a roms/ subdirectory (like in mame)
