A500 ECS Agnus 1mb ... pic.2 -> it switches to NTSC mode lace automatically (weird)?!

p.s. Tested on b14, D3D, scanelines + double fields!

I don't see any NTSC switches, on emulation or on real A500. But it does use interlace mode without actually being in interlace, it shows same field twice..

see log file attached ... just to mention: after it switches to ntsc and some time later got only black screen.

It needs slow ram, 1M chip won't work.

On WinUAE and also not working on real Amiga ECS 1mb chip, right ?!

Yes and yes. It switches to NTSC and then crashes soon after.

This is good test case! Blits are started by copper, removes CPU from pile of unknown variables.

A500 confirmed. (That font can't be designed to look like that?)

Does not happen on OCS or ECS (Agnus or Denise) A500. It is sprite related.

This needs A1000 test (or A2000 with A1000 DIP Agnus), I can't test it because it needs 1M RAM and my A1000 is unexpended.

Another accidental bug that gets hidden by chipset "features".. Fixed, but I am not 100% sure it is exactly right, it could break something else..

Very good ... as didnt expect that its a bug, so could happened to not report it at all.

So, this will then need to testing again all the "Already 'Fixed' Demos" from the 1st page with new test winuae.zip version !!!
-> http://www.winuae.net/files/b/winuae.zip

Is there some volunteer for the task ? ... No! ... Ok then, it seems I will have to do it all again alone. ... but not now, later maybe.

So far found broken:

New and Better Routines (Intro) by Cult -> http://eab.abime.net/showpost.php?p=...&postcount=242

EDIT: And all others seems to be OK.

Toni Wilen · 24 November 2013, 20:14

I was going to say: don't. But apparently I was late

Fixed, just a stupid typo which unfortunately worked with all test cases I tried. (I have pile of statefiles from weird demos, faster tests!)

Mental Collection 27 Intro (Intro) by X-Men

A500 OCS/ECS (most common) ... at one point rotating X is completely lost from the screen (pic.1,2)!

EDIT: Most likely CPU emulator timing issue as it doesnt happens if CE=Off !!!

Born to Raise the Hell (Intro) by 4-ward

A500 OCS/ECS (most common) ... interlace mode, rotating part glitches (pic.3)!

Meeting Time 2 (Demo) by Acume

A500 OCS/ECS (most common) ... and another demo with dots over copper bars (pic.4)!

Bug in demo and it only works accidentally if "cia tod bug" is enabled. So I'll probably enable it by default if 68000-based config. (It was disabled because it causes weird issues with some bigbox Amiga software, it is workaround only)

Actually this is 100% exactly right behavior! Demo stupidly waits for first visible display line before switching off sprite DMA -> move mouse cursor few pixels down before demo starts to fix it
