Hi,

I remember a long time ago, emulation of the MT-32's LCD display was being talked about. In fact, I found an old thread here where CC mentioned he was going to start working on it, and even posted a picture to whet our appetites, although I'm not sure whether that was just a mockup.

I haven't been able to get hold of any more recent news on this aspect of MT-32 emulation though, so I was just wondering whether anyone knew more about it?

Thanks 😀

Hi, guys!

The Munt has the display application you mentioned, in fact. You can find the sources at

https://github.com/munt/munt/tree/master/mt32emu_display
and
https://github.com/munt/munt/tree/master/mt32 … isplay_controls

I updated them to successfully compile with MS VS 2008 Express edt.
I found it quite nice (but still not much useful) and even made binaries in February. However, CC and KG never released it.

Although, the plan is to make newer mt32emu-qt, a cross-platform GUI application which will make mt32emu_display obsolete (though we work on it not so fast as we wanted to). 🙁

Thanks Serg for pointing us to the source! 😀 Do you still have the binaries somewhere?

Yep. This display is really helpful for diagnostics and debugging. Note, that in order to use it, you need the version of Munt engine compiled with

#define MT32EMU_USE_EXTINT 1
