That teaches the author for not using libsndfile!

If he had used this cross-platform standard library instead of his own code, not only would more sample formats be supported but also endianness would play no role because libsndfile is endian-agnostic.

Ok, I have changed the values in these lines - it is ok
I changed similarly SAVE SAMPLE and it seems ok

Is the Morphos version as you stated here
https://www.amigans.net/modules/newbb/ ... id=144224#forumpost144224

includes these fixes ? because on Morphos there were errors when exporting the sample mod as I sent you. On AOS4 it is already ok.

You're right - I also checked "MOD2WAV" -generates some nonsense - even without a wav file header.

smarkusg has compiled a new version, it contains some fixes, could you test it again on your machine?

.Mod/Sample (.iff) Saving, loading and playback should not cause any problems. I did a few quick tests and it works as it should.

Otherwise there would still be the possibility that I could contact the PT2 clone developer "8bitbubsy" and point out current problems with AmigaOs.4.1 and MorphOs. Maybe it could be helpful to be able to get a clean port with all functions.

Of course everyone can take part in the testing...

55-60% CPU usage on my X1000 with a fast module. No stereo ?

Except this, it seems to be working as expected.

The CPU load should be okay, although not optimal. Also take a look at the protracker.ini "Audio settings", here you can play around with the settings. If you only use the test binary, the Protracker.ini and its settings are not available and standard values are configured. You should test it in combination with the Os4depot version.

The test build you sent me is the final version for now?

Or will there be another build with updates, I'm only asking because otherwise I'll upload the archive to os4depot with the new bug-fixed version.

You have to ask @trixie if this version meets his current expectations. He is probably the most involved in the topic to make pt2-clone work as well as possible.
It is possible that he has already compiled a better version himself.
Updating a not fully working version every few days on os4depot is probably not the best idea.

In my opinion it doesn't matter how often an archive is updated. If this means program xyz works better under AmigaOs4.1. It is better to update a program than to do nothing and leave it unfinished and unusable. There are countless cases of this on os4depot because many people don't care.

It shows people that quick fixes have taken place.

The new version works very well, saving data looks fixed. The only serious problem I get is when I click on the "Sample" button in the Sampler section. The program just stops responding; no freeze but nothing can be selected any more.

No, I stopped messing with the PT2 clone seeing that you're working on it in cooperation with beworld; you two are doing a great job.

I was also able to replicate it under Qemu Pegasos2, the program freezes without any error message. I can also see on the CPU display that the resources such as RAM/CPU are then released. As if the tracker has been stopped and the window is wearing out too. hmmm strange...

Yes - I checked.

Currently I have blocked these two things. The theme is not the last solution, but it is better not to cause problems until possible improvement.
I tried to hide it , that is samples blocked only when selecting sample and MOD2WAV only when approving. It will not be so striking to those people who have no intention of using it.
The rest of the functionality should work. Sorry for the problems.

I will ask @Maijestro to edit the post with new files : https://www.amigans.net/modules/newbb/ ... id=144339#forumpost144339
so as not to litter the forum.
Also a request for @trixie to check if everything is working now. He is probably the most knowledgeable person on the PT topic - thank you for your help.

Maybe some issue in SDL2 audio capture code. Testaudiocapture binary doesn't seem to work properly anymore either.

I also checked testaudiocapture in the test directory with the SDL2 source when he filed the problem @trixie.
I didn't write about it because I checked on the old SDL2 sources and thought that was the problem.
I don't know what SDL2 sources Morphos uses but the version in morphos-store pt2clone has the same problem.

Thanks @Capehill for checking

and as for the pt2clone itself the mod problem with the export should be able to be fixed with the use of.
https://aminet.net/package/mus/edit/mod2wav
It works better than the export itself implemented in pt2clone and it should be possible to adapt it

PT2-Clone is a great port, although not perfect, but most people will probably just use this tracker to play a few mods and get a bit of a retro feel.

This port is much more usable than the original PT2 clone version of Os4Depot.

I will update the archive to Os4Depot. Thanks

Edit: Could you perhaps send me the source code with your work so that I can put it in the archive?

Yes , I think it is currently better to make a patch and I will send you. I will also put it on github. The current version is not suitable for uploading to the repository. It is an open project and out of respect for the author of the code, every modification should be available and not hidden in a cupboard.
