Thats it, thank you Ross.

How hard would you say is a fix ? ; from a scale from 1 to 10 ? Is there a lot of rewrite that has to be done ? ( sorry, but my programmings skills are.. well; lets be honest here, rubbish, but i am curious )

Very interesting stuff, thanks for all the info´s Ross.

On accelerators where access to chip ram is slow, you start losing the race with the beam, you don't update the copper list in time, you start to desynchronize more and more and video start glitching like crazy (IRQ3 code is retriggered immediately and forever.., not at the right start of video position).

Even on bare A500 some rendering require a bit more than a frame but on average, with the followings, it returns to a stable 50 fps.

Thanks, Ross, for the info. Makes sense why all degrading fails.

It depends, I have a (simple) idea on how to do it.
But a simple idea may also require a complex solution, there are several variables to consider (CPU, Copper, Blitter, IRQ ..).
And for the scale of difficulty .. what is 1 for someone can be 10 for someone else

@Ross

OOOoOOhh..!! I haven't done any peeking into code in a long time. That's a sweet find!

"What is 1 for someone can be 10 for someone else." - Uh-huh, Uhhhhhh-huh! That's also where the fun is sometimes.

Merely Curious..and touching base. Any sweet progress from the Lords of WHDLoad?

Hopefully, one day, the WHDLoad Gods will make it work. I am excited for that day
