Atomiswave only worked on CF-SD; it didn't work on ide_sata.

Just one question: which folder do I put the videos in? I checked GitHub but didn't see the directory paths for that =)

Hmm didn't test it on VA0 btw, only VA1. But it should works and on VA0...
trailer.avi put to GDI directory. If image is not GDI, just create separate directory with your image.

I found a problem with FATFS and am looking for the cause of the crashes. I will re-upload the release once I fix it.

The SD card on the Dreamcast is amazing!

It should work much better.

Just tried the new release and it seems much more stable now. No more crashes opening ISO Loader or graphical glitches. I'm still having issues booting some games though (PlanetWeb 3.0, Worms World Party, etc.). Same as before, they boot about 50% of the time. Using the old ide.bin fixes this.

Also, I'm not sure it's related to this particular version but I can't boot the Visual Concepts games anymore. Have you tested these recently @SWAT?

Edit: I found something very interesting. I couldn't boot the Visual Concepts games on 4.0.3 either. I tried removing my serial SD adapter, and now they boot! They still don't boot on 4.0.4 but maybe it's a related issue? There's definitely some sort of issue with having a serial SD card reader plugged in when trying to boot the games.

2K sports and Worms works fine for me. Only Ooga Booga not boot and NHL doesn't load to gameplay. Planetweb works from 8сfe8000.

I tested NBA 2K2, NFL 2K2, Ooga Booga, and Floigan Bros. None of them boot for me. The sports games play the into animations but it freezes after that.

I got the web browser to boot from 8сfe8000. Thanks! I was using default with low-level before.

Не прошиваются новые BIOSы, ни Devkit ни Retail ни Holy. Загрузка 100% и в конце надпись Successful, но при старте чёрный экран-кирпич. Вернул 2.8. Если не использовать SD, Naomi и Weldscreen, есть нужда перепрошиваться на новые?
