Please attach a .inp that reproduces the issue, the bonus stages have been working fine for me.

lol ok.. how i can found this file ? or i can create it ?
Simply try to google "mame .inp" and i now know i can record the games. i need to know how i can recreate this issue.
So... maybe i have found how it's possible to record a .inp.....
Need to open command prompt from mame folder..... for run Quizard i have launch this command:
D:\Emulatori\MAME\Emulatori\Official>mame quizardi -record quizardi.inp
quizard18.chd CHD NEEDS REDUMP
WARNING: the machine might not run correctly.
Average speed: 100.00% (112 seconds)
This is my first test............ this is my first inp files. quizardi.zip
EDIT Warn.. this files it's not valid...... correct and freeze bottom here.
Here i don't have reach the bonus stage......... try to play another match whit same games.
Assuming you are on Windows you also need to pipe the nvram_directory to dev/null (so that it can be played back with the same base seed), i.e.
mame quizardi -record quizardi.inp -nvram_directory NUL
Not that I've tried to play back your file, you can check if it doesn't desync with the -playback
command.
EDIT Warn.. this files it's not valid...... correct and freeze bottom here.
@MooglyGuy you can "watch" this match. near the end you can watch me respond a question which concerns the strength of a roof on a house. Correct answer.......... it's appear BONUS........ say EXTRA LIFE but after that emulation goes in freeze.
@angelosa You say you can't watch ? After that how i can correct replay a .inp files ?
Te lo traduco:
Se non passi il parametro che ti ho detto MAME scazza quando poi provi a rivedere la partita tramite il comando -playback
. Per essere sicuri che non serva, prova a vedere se riesci a riprodurre la partita con:
mame quizardi -playback quizardi.inp
Se per caso va in desync (come spesso accade) è dovuto al non-default che hai della batteria tampone (NVRAM), quindi dovresti nel caso:
mame quizardi -record quizardi.inp -nvram_directory NUL
mame quizardi -playback quizardi.inp -nvram_directory NUL
@angelosa lol possiamo parlare italiano. Il problema è che mi è arrivato il tuo reply quando avevo già uploadato il quizardi2.zip.
Ho appena verificato infatti lanciando: D:\Emulatori\MAME\Emulatori\Official>mame quizardi -playback quizardi2.inp
il gioco parte ma non riproduce la partita che avevo fatto in precedenza quando avevo raggiunto la possibilita di completare il livello bonus.
Ora provo come suggerisci tu cioè con l'aggiunta del -nvram...... poi lo riproduco e devo ri-raggiungere il livello bonus......
Dammi una diecina di minuti :)
@angelosa allora ho fatto prima del previsto......... ho eseguito come tu dici e dal prompt dei comandi:
D:\Emulatori\MAME\Emulatori\Official>mame quizardi -record quizardi.inp -nvram_directory NUL
quizard18.chd CHD NEEDS REDUMP
WARNING: the machine might not run correctly.
unzip: NUL.zip couldn't find ECD
un7z: error opening NUL.7z as 7z archive (17)
Average speed: 100.00% (149 seconds)
Prima quegli errori non comparivano....... ora provo il playback e vedo se la partita appena registrata si blocca. Ho appena raggiunto un altra volta il livello bonus rispondendo ad una domanda su mao-tse-tung o come si scrive e appunto l'emulazione ha freezato.....
OOOKK....... @MooglyGuy and @angelosa Now this files it's completely playable. I have verify and it's can playable by: D:\Emulatori\MAME\Emulatori\Official>mame quizardi -playback quizardi.inp -nvram_directory NUL
You can see i reach the bonus question......... correct answe Mao-Tse-Tung and BAAM... emulation goes in freeze and at this point i can only close mame whit ESC button on my keyboard.
I've heard before this can happen on real hardware is you use a language dongle with a CD that doesn't fully support that language (like they forgot to translate every part of the game)
however, I can't say for sure if that's the case here, but it could well be MAME supports some invalid combinations of language/CD revision.
Reproduced in 0.255, 0.254 and 0.253 with the attached quizard (German version) recording. I believe this rules out the MCS51 serial changes, but without knowing a version which works correctly it's difficult to track down the issue.
MAME version
0.254
System information
Windows 10 x64 22H2.
INI configuration details
Emulated system/software
CDI.cpp
Incorrect behaviour
I have try to play all title "Quizard" Italian version whit current update 0.254 of mame. Apparently i can obtain this trouble: 1.0 : Not work...... i can see the Philips CD-I but games never start
All other version 1.2, 1.7 and 1.8 have this issue: Start a games....... reach the bonus question and made a correct answer. Emulation goes in freeze when problably you can obtain a extra life. You can reproduce ?
I can't try to other version becuase it's german :)
Expected behaviour
Simply finish to play my game:)
Steps to reproduce
Simply try to reproduce what i upper say.
