[IAGL] amiga PUAE no device loaded #651

Open AmigaPuae opened 3 months ago

AmigaPuae commented 3 months ago

I am getting this error message when loading a hdf from IAGL on a RP4 using libreelec 11.0.6 and KODI 20.

Please insert volume DH0 in any device.

The log file says of course that Startup sequence failed since DH0 is not found.

Further, info : AddOnLog: game.libretro.uae: HD (1) inserted in drive DH0: '/storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.program.iagl/game_cache/Worms_v1.0_1MB_0230.hdf'

Which reflects also that neither a connected controller works not an attached keyboard or mouse unfortunately.

So there are currently 2 Problems.

  1. No input devices recognized/usable (although they work fine in the kodi GUI itself)
  2. The hdf games are not loaded since for some reason DH0 seems to be empty although the hdf is recognized

Any help is highly appreciated.

Full log from the core might help. If rewind or runahead are enabled, disable them. HDFs are the worst possible format anyway, but nothing should prevent reading from them, and nothing has here so far.

Unfortunately, I only have a debug log from Kodi it this helps somehow https://paste.libreelec.tv/enjoyed-possum.log

ADF files work fine but this makes then using IAGL in the moment not possible :-(

Sure it helps somewhat since it also shows the libretro logging inside that insane amount of noise:

I have no idea why it can't open the file properly with read and write access, but that seems to be the common theme with that IAGL stuff for some reason, and does not happen anywhere else. In any case the core version is also old (but I doubt that makes any difference), and HDF is the worst possible format for WHDLoad usage, and they should be nuked from the interwebs. What about the best option for WHDLoad which is LHA, which does not need write access ever? They should work since floppies work.

Oh well, looking further to the log shows that any WHDLoad related can not work, because it has serious disk write and path issues, since the required files for WHDLoad booting are "not there", and the paths have double // for some reason yet the path exist, so it does allow something to be created:

2024-03-23 21:51:30.386 T:1382     info <general>: AddOnLog: game.libretro.uae: my_fsize: fseek on file '/storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/game.libretro.uae/save/WHDLoad//Devs/system-configuration' failed

Also it seems to be constantly saving savestates, as in rewind is enabled, which can and will seriously break and slow things down.

The problem seems to be in the Kodi frontend, because the core works fine in RetroArch with every platform.

Also look at this other IAGL issue with the exact same problems and even a solution: https://github.com/libretro/libretro-uae/issues/586
