Re: Floppy Emulator

2014-01-21 by musicwithharry

I saw the pics of your installation.  That is pretty slick.
So with this emulator, you can literally store up to the capacity of the SD card and such..  How does it address maybe having hundreds of song files and such?  Are they save like disk images and you have to open up each disk image or does it store all of the songs and sounds in a linear format to where they are accessible at will?

If you have 100 songs and normally on the floppies they are divided up between 20 floppies, will it look that way on the emulator or will it look like 100 songs, alphabetical by name?

Grace, 
Harry

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
