First off. I didn't intend to stir a hornet's nest with my initial post, and I do apologize, it was late and I didn't quite read everything I was supposed to. Faux pas won't happen again.

I have an odd question. Having played the original games countless times, I'm so used to the half second to one second delay between scenes that it catches me off guard with how quickly Daphne seeks through the DVD transfer files. Is there any way to 'slow down' the seek process so as to have it more like the original? I have got the 'Blank on Skips' and 'Blank on searches' selected, but they barely flicker at all. It may be nitpicking I suppose, and that's not my intention, I'm just used to what I played in the arcades. :)

There is an option in the advanced section of Daphne Loader called LD Latency Adjust that I believe does what you want.

seek delay has been added. You should be able to select it via DaphneLoader in the v0.99.7pre builds.

(note this is not the same as search latency... search latency controls how long before a seek starts, not how long the seek lasts)

Hi,
I'm using the version pre4, but I can't find this option in the loader (1.2).
Can I enable it via command line?

Thanks

-min_seek_delay 500 -seek_frames_per_ms 15

Enter that in your commandline, that should give a fair approximation of the original seek delay.
