EaglePlayer, Arexx, Alignment, and Guru

Hi all!

Leof and I are facing yet-another problem, this time with EaglePlayer and its Arexx port. (You may recall that, in some cases, EaglePlayer would not reply to a message...)

On Leof's 68000 Amiga, after sending an Arexx message to EaglePlayer, GetMsg(reply_port) invites a Guru 8000 0003... again an alignment problem? This problem doesn't occur (at all) on a 68020+ (I personnally use EaglePlayer all day long) or on Leof's 68000 Amiga with DeliTracker II. The problem seems to come from whatever EaglePlayer replies...

Would that makes sense? Could there be a way to workaround that?

Cheers!

You can ask EP author to fix this problem for 68000.

Hey Don!

Thanks for your reply

I just wanted to be sure first that the problem is with EaglePlayer and now my code because I'm still learning the "ropes"

Hey Don!

Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce this Guru in my WinUAE, it "only" happens on Leof's real Amiga.
Leof tested HippoPlayer too and there's no crash, so it's indeed EaglePlayer causing it!

At least I can say that AmiModRadio is innocent of that Guru

Cheers!

Do You set good config on WinUAE? You must choose 68000 and More Compatible (strange name) option, to catch odd addres error.

Hi Don!

Yes, I have selected: "More compatible" and "24-bit addressing". I think that they are the "default" when creating a A500 config. With this config., I was able to reproduce on alignment problem but not this new one...

Cheers!
