Hi, I've been able to get Daphne working for most games, but a few are still giving me trouble.
DL2
My framefile is this:
C:\Daphne\lair2\
-490 lair2.m2v
I note that the seektest page doesn't show an example for DL2, so I was just using the figure -490 as supplied to me by another Daphne user.
I get this error in the log:
--DAPHNE version 0.99.7
--Command line is: C:\Daphne\daphne.exe lair2 vldp -framefile C:\Daphne\framefile.txt

You must specify a -framefile argument when using VLDP.
If you didn't, then this is the problem.

I also tried a positive figure (1) instead of -490 and still got the same results. Any advice?
BADLANDS
I get the startup screen that give the warning about timing problems and LDP commands, and then it just sits and does nothing. The end of the log shows this:
Framefile parse succeeded. Video/Audio directory is: C:/Daphne/badlands/
YUV overlay is hardware accelerated.
WARNING : Your MPEG doesn't match your video overlay's resolution.
Video overlay will not work!
Your MPEG's size is 512 x 480, and needs to be 640 x 512
Is there a way to resize the m2v or do I need to find a proper size copy or is there a way in Daphne to override this?
Thanks much,
Joe
