Re: OqtaDrive internal issues

To analyze this further, you could open the web developer tool in your browser (Firefox and Chrome both have something like this) when the problem occurs. Switch to the console tab there and let it sit for a moment. Log messages should appear now. You can then right click in the console, save these ...

Re: OqtaDrive internal issues

I have a problem where suddenly, maybe after loading something from the virtual drive I have created with a BASIC program on it, the web interface seemingly repeatedly resets. Are you maybe using an ad blocker or malware scanner add-on in your browser? I have seen cases where this was messing with ...

Re: OqtaDrive

I think the problem with the clones is that they often come with an old boot loader. Default in OqtaDrive installation is the new boot loader, but old one can be enabled in the config (see install docs).

Without seeing any logs that's hard to say. Have you run 'make patch_avrdude' once?

Any reason why you're not using the automated installation?

When you load a TAP file into OqtaDrive, it gets converted to an MDR on the fly using Tom's tool (a ported version integrated into OqtaDrive).

Didn't know there is such a thing :) Can the emulated Spectrum access the Microdrives of the QL? Also, is there any documentation for the TZP format? I haven't been aware of that one.

Re: USB Keyboard IF

Thanks but it doesn't answer my question of how they are handled. Is the triplet a unique ascii code converted to the pressing of three lines? No, Spectratur translates key strokes, not characters. So when pressing the three keys on the USB keyboard, three distinct key events are generated. Each of...
