kryo2apd

Post by danielj »

Hi all,
kryo2apd.jar uploaded to the dev site. Usage currently is:

java -jar kryo2apd.jar <kryoflux dump dir>

It requires the Java 7 RT.

I haven't implemented any command line options yet - I'm open to suggestions. As the kryoflux generally produces 5 samples per track I suggest one should probably be to choose which sample to use?

All feedback welcome and I'll implement what I can!

Cheers,
d.

New version uploaded, can specify -f to omit the FM stream (which always has false hits) if you know it's not required. Reduces the size of the apd massively.

Thanks, do you want to announce this on the various forums? The ABIME thread did have a few Kryoflux owners on it, its been a bit quiet lately but people do contact me through it about ways to image Arc floppies.

Mention the project, so people are aware we are moving things forward :D

Sure. Is there a website yet for hosting this? I'll attach it to the post otherwise.

Not yet, Paul has kindly created a stub for us, but I've not had any time to do anything with it.

Once I finish the current contract I'm on (end of July), I intend on devoting the rest of the year to getting things moving again. I suspect I won't get a lot done in the summer holiday though, as my children do deserve some attention.

I really need to get a new release of ADFFS out, it's been over 5 months - I used to put them out pretty much weekly!

If you've got any content at all in Word (or any other format), I can at least pre-populate some of the pages for you to speed things up a bit.

I have nothing I'm afraid, I'd left the web development to the two web devs.

I'm getting an error trying to convert Boogie Buggy disc 1. All three APD's have corruption, so something odd is going on. This is using the version on the dev site.

If I use "-f" disc 1 saves without error. I've put the files on the dev site.

The errors on the image are regular, at a guess, I'd say sector 0 on every other track is corrupt:

Hi Jon, I'll try and have a look tonight. Looks like I did something lazy with an array as it puts the APD file together. I'm guessing we're not expecting any FM tracks here so the -f option should be fine. I'll have a look at the original files and see if I can work out what's going on and where.

Did you figure out what the issue was in the end?
