After my post there was a 0.41a release

BTW can anyone verify the accuracy of the speed of the 486SX 40MHz emulation? I had a crappy ISA video card back then so I don't really know, I don't remember Doom running that fast on 40mhz.

Excellent!

"- On some Windows 7 machines some keys won't work. I've heard this might be down to a buggy infrared driver. A
workaround has been added - in the settings menu, you can switch from the Allegro keyboard handler to Windows.
This has some other sideeffects, so don't use it unless you need to."

It's actually the eHome MCIR keyboard drivers that seem to be persistently annoying - it affects SDL bigtime, too. Uninstalling them fixes the key bug but it'll also come back after a reboot

either way, you can't seem to press the ` or ~ key in pcem, so you can not mighty foot in duke3d

Wish the SB freq is changable to 49716hz or something. opl on 22khz is a bit grating

the window resizing is GREAT, btw.

Quick question, why is such a frequency used for the SB?

I mean, is it the native output of the device? Just seems a bit odd after putting up with common sample rates for so long. (11,025, 22,050, 44,100, 48,000, etc.)

Sorry for hijacking the thread 😒

Yes, that's the output sampling rate of OPL2/OPL3. Obviously no modern system supports this sampling rate so PCem uses 48kHz instead. Not sure where the above mentioned 22kHz come from.

Most sound cards nowadays support any sampling rate from about 8 to 96KHz. So there's no problem in using 49716Hz.

Cards yes, but those internal sound devices that come with almost all dekstops and laptops are a different matter.
