Got mine today. Waiting on PC speaker cables but the audio out jack works.

Which VGM files are compatible with the card? Is there a collection somewhere?

very good!
usually you can also use a CD-Rom Audio Cable for Connection.

as i only play games with the card (mostly) i have not packaged up a collection i just have 3 vgm files.
But there are many vgm download sites on the net, i don`t even know if they are legal.

its also possible to convert midi files to vgm.

At least there are 2 Players,
sbvgm and vgmplay

@NitroRaptor

Apart from me being confused by the labelling of the components, it turned out really well! Thanks, matze!

Were you referring to me? In these new videos I use a 3 channel Behringer USB mixer to capture the audio. Before I was using the OSSC with a USB3 HDMI capture card.

I added a few more videos to my second channel using the new card:

this sounds like PC-Speaker only.

You need to PATCH Prince.exe for Tandy Sound.

EDIT:
Ah ok its POP2.. but it should also work. I had 3 Voice Sound with this Game.

Hm. I used PoP 1.3 with Tandy as music. Same for PoP2. But I also thought it sounded like PC speaker. I will try again!

That concerns PoP 1.0. I was using version 1.3 which comes with a setup program to pick the sound card. I will investigate what Settings work... maybe they check for Tandy Bios and revert to PC speaker?

Ok, then I will try again with PoP 1.0 and patch the binary.

I edited PRINCE.EXE from the 1.0 release, and at the given position changed the 75h to EBh. But no luck. I get Adlib only sound. Any ideas?

EDIT: "prince vga tandy" leads to sound, but it seems monophonic. could the PC beeper (which is attached to the TNDY card). "prince vga gblast" hangs the system, with the SnarkBarker (including SAA1099) installed.
