Oh... You need to find the individual song(s) from that artist that you've bookmarked. I think...

You can't remove a bookmark right after you've added it, you must reload the page. If that's what you mean...

Low-Gain is on to something... I just might have to bone my speaker later on.

NeX, if this is about what we talked about two days ago...
A0-A8 (A total of 8+1 line) are responsible for the actual logo. If those are correct, and all other lines are grounded, the logo should show, but the game won't boot. If you see a pattern of lines or dots in the logo, whether the logo is scrambled or not, one or more of the data lines are loose. If you don't see a pattern of lines/dots, the data lines are probably ok, at least.

Also, if you e-mail me the ROM, and I can produce a list of scrambled logos that you can compare against to pinpoint which address lines might be loose.

*snarky comment coming in*

I think he himself honestly believes in his idea, but I'm doubtful. He doesn't show any proof whatsoever that he has a working prototype. He doesn't even show any proof whatsoever that he knows what he's talking about. Quite the opposite actually.

So, he's going to use mGB... In other words, he's not going to write any Gameboy code. An Arduino eh? So he's going to turn the Arduino into a homemade MIDI keyboard and cut out the ArduinoBoy middleman. At best. It wouldn't surprise me if he's actually going to put two Arduinos in there... one running an unmodified copy of AB and one that sends MIDI. What is he planning to actually do? Cut out the buttons from a DMG and put his keyboard there? His description is not exactly clear.

I also don't see what the hell he needs two grand for, unless maybe he's looking to cover all of his developmental and material costs for the first run and be able to sell his stuff for a pure profit

And the name...? Is DMG-10 supposed to be a play on both DMG-01 and DS-10?

I don't see his idea flying anytime soon. sad

Ah, looks really, really broken... But out of curiosity, can you make anything appear on the dead part by adjusting the contrast? Even just make the area completely black?

Let me see the screen with LSDj running. Or anything that has stuff going on on the whole screen.

What if I use LSDJ on a DMG for a bassline and drums, mGB on a gameboy light controlled by piggy via midi running on a gp2x for some chords, and chipsounds VST on my netbook and vocoded for the melody?  Then I'd be FORCED to chose one hardware and one software platform.  How would that help anyone?  Tags should remain as is. I suggest if you don't like gameboy tracks, as soon as you realize what is it is, skip it.  That's what I do wink

Exactly. And with my suggestion this would still work... The duiferent platforms etc would just be listed under their respective captions.

I just found this... An Arduino shield for the YM2151 chip! Looks pretty cool.

I've seen a Sega CD loader, but you apparently can't use it on ROMs. You must compile your own code that's using it. I'll see if I can find the link.
Also, I'm under the impression that Sega CDs are relatively hard/expensive to come by, so maybe this isn't the best solution unless you already own a Sega CD...?

My original idea for this was to let certain tags be platform tags, other software tags, yet other genre tags. They would work exactly like any other tag, but the tags would be shown in groups for easy access, in tho song listing page, on individual song pages etc. What thinks?

trashy: It's under the gbdev.gg8.se domain these days. Gameboydev.org is back in Jose's hands and used only for selling cartridges now. Also, the info on the wiki is not unique, but it might still be helpful.

And of course, as I said before:

Just so we don't exclude any possibilities... What is the speed rating of the flash chip? The speed rating is the last number in the part number, after a dash. It's typically something like -75, -90 or -120 and tells you how many nanoseconds the chip will take to deliver the requested data. Lower is better. -120 should work, -90 should definitely work, but anything above -120 might not. I find it hard to believe that such a big chip would be too slow, but you never know.

Can you tell me something about the scrambled logo?
Does it look the same every time? If no, then something is seriously wrong. ( smile )
Does it have any resemblance of the Ninty logo? If yes you've probably swapped or otherwise screwed up the data lines.
If neither of those, (same dirt every time) you're reading data from somewhere else in the ROM.

If the flash chip is actually programmed correctly, then there's something wrong with the address lines.

Any unused address pins should be grounded, otherwise they might fluctuate and this can cause a complete failure. However, since your cart doesn't use MBC5, I'm assuming it's using MBC3 or maybe MBC1. (But not MBC2, as MBC2 couldn't even handle the 8 MBit LH538...) Both MBC1 and MBC3 have a max size of 16 MBits, so you should be able to get the full size. You should be able to connect at least A19 by connecting it to A19 of the ROM. If there's only 1 unconnected pin left on the MBC, that's where A20 should go. Or you could ground A20 and live with having only 8 MBits for now.

Oh and if you haven't seen these:

i don't have any actual practical experience, but perhaps I can help you anyway. You know where I am.
