Ok. Check, mate

Sorry. Only a few stereo streams can be played realtime (and with quality set to low).

Check your PM.

As for doing it in the weekend, I didn't have a lot of time, so I couldn't do much. This is the reason I didn't promise anything (I knew there was a good change I wouldn't have much time). However, I've taken this week off, so I have a lot of time this week.

Sounds good.

Indeed.

A concrete case ?

Maybe. Cache consists of 16 blocks of 16 bytes. I do not know its filling algorithm, cache-overrun timings are mysterious to me. But my tests have shown that if your loop is 240 consecutive bytes or less, it will always fit.

A quick look won't cost...

Yeah, sure. But it's going to the dark side anyway

It makes no sense, apart making more money out of the unsatisfied users...

I hope I'll see that.

Not much fun ? Yeah, it may even make you seriously consider the x86

Practically. You've already got some experience with my comments anyway :-)

One day I'll try to comment code in Elfish

You've setup frequency division to 2 in Hippo. So if you play 44100Hz MP3 (and I bet you do) you'll end up with 22050.
Now you set up an unfair limit of 20000 in DT. So if you play 44.1 MP3 (you do, don't you ?) the player can't use 22050 (yes, 22050>20000 ) and it will switch the freq div to 4, leading to 11025 Hz. And that's really AM radio quality, as you said.
The frequency you give is a limit to compute the freq_div value. Ability to use arbitrary ratios would be overly complex, so only values 1,2,4 are supported.
If you play a 22050 MP3 (there are some), you can play it with freq_div=1, so specifying freq_div directly is not good. I put 25000, but writing 22222 or 28836 would make no difference (for 44100).

There is no "zmacro"
If it's "zmac" you're looking for, then it is obsolete. It was my old "multiply-accumulate" macro. No longer used ; see if/endc pairs.

If you have a complete DT2 somewhere, then you have an "ARexx" dir showing you examples. I can help too if you have trouble, of course.

Yeah, but it would have sucked less than AM radio ;-)

It is.

If playing at freq_div=2 where DT uses 4, then certainly

Cards with Prism2 chip, such as NetGear MA-401, work well. It's just too bad there is no free access point close to my home

Could be much better, but nothing else suits my needs.

Not needed anymore, unless you want to see how often something gets called.

Now it's solved...
