Hey there,

Curious if the DOSBox capture ability allows a toggleable setting to automatically capture MIDI data once the program is launched, without having to press default key combos or custom key binds. The use case is capturing MT-32 SysEx, which sends before a game is "live". I tried a few times using a custom single keyboard key, and each time a different amount of SysEx data was captured.
I'm using 0.74-2, if that makes a difference.

Cheers!

I assume this is because the game is auto-launching? Can you not just launch into a command prompt, start the capture then start the game manually?
