Is an ECS Denise an easy drop-in replacement for the OCS Denise on an A500 rev 6A? Does having a ECS Denise introduce different compatibility problems? (Sorry kaffer I wasn't expecting to pollute this thread!) |

Question: Is there a way to boot with a specific slot from the (HxC) image-selector program? I only achieve it to reboot with slot 1 selected, requiring me to manually browse to the correct slot Oh and is there a way with HXCFEMNG to also (clearly) list the empty slots when getting them from the config, so I can easily fill them in a text editor? Now it simply does not include them in the getslots result if I'm not mistaken. Other option won't work: HxCEdit crashes for me. Never mind, FF-HxC Editor does work Last edited by spudje; 30 May 2019 at 15:54. |

FlashFloppy TestBed now Open Source!
https://github.com/keirf/FF_TestBed/wiki This is the testbed I use to validate FlashFloppy releases and now I put the capability into the hands of suitably advanced users, to validate their Gotek and USB-drive hardware! I will be continuing development of the testbed to provide ever clearer performance metrics for firmware tuning, and for competitive benchmarks that everyone can reproduce and validate! |

Via the power of the "STM32 Blue Pill" it is now possible to send the FlashFloppy display to the Amiga's monitor (On Screen Display), and to control the Gotek buttons via the Amiga's keyboard. This makes a fully embedded installation of FlashFloppy, and no case cutting or 3d-printed addons, a serious proposition! See the FF OSD project wiki for more details: https://github.com/keirf/FF_OSD/wiki Example Video (Amstrad CPC, so keyboard input is not demonstrated): [ Show youtube player ] |

On a side note. Is there anyway of having something of this kind implemented for the Gotek: USB-A to USB-A cable connecting a PC/laptop to the Gotek and then using an app on PC to 'insert' the ADF. The only reason I ask this, is that it will save me putting files on USB stick and using ADF on the fly. I was thinking if it mounted something like 'PCDRIVE.ADF' and you essentially insert/eject the ADF image on PC but the name does not need changing on Gotek. Not sure if the above is feasible but would be great if it could work. |

Can someone explain for me how does the "On Screen Display" work using Gotek? Magic?

FF OSD can also intercept keyboard signals and pass them on the the Gotek (via the I2C bus), or potentially other devices, to emulate buttons and switches. The diagram on the FF OSD Github page nicely summarises the solution: https://github.com/keirf/FF_OSD https://github.com/keirf/FF_OSD/wiki...re-Connections |

This looks amazing, how do you mix the signals? This is what I don't understand Also can it turn itself off? The video I saw the text was overlayed constantly.

There's also an Amiga hotkey for toggling the OSD (if you have tapped the Amiga keyboard lines). |

The display idle timeout and wake should be what is configured in FlashFloppy. |
