KERBEROS APP OSX BUG...?

[DrKucho Games]

Hi again , my Mac isn't able to send more than 27.3k data into kerberos, it stops at this point, I tested with sidwizard, games, etc, as long as the org is smaller than 27.3k it works but if it's bigger the percentage count on the c64 stops and nothing happens...

It works with no problem when I use the app in a PC using the same midi interface, cables and everything

Some people reported this problem with some MIDI interfaces as well. Looks like sometimes they have problems with too much data on MacOS, and on Linux. Try this version, which adds a delay, which helped for some MIDI interfaces:

But it will be much slower for large files.

Maybe try a different MIDI interface. You can find it on eBay for "USB MIDI cable". But if it costs less than EUR 5, usually it is crap. Once I did test a few interfaces:

There were serious bugs e.g. wrong electrical interface, like no optoisolator, which could result in bad hums for audio, or not sending full SysEx message, or totally broken, like only receiving data, but not sending data. But interfaces >= EUR 15 and with a brand name are usually good.

I have tried the kerberos app you sent with the supposed delay, and it works, but I am really confused because:

- the version of this app seems to be the 1.2 but the version I had was 1.1 ( I don't remember where I downloaded it but I guess from your site )

- there is no time difference when I upload files to the c64, I can't feel the delay...

Glad that it works now. The only difference with version 1.2 is the delay. It should be a bit faster without it, this is the reason why I didn't release it so far, because there might be a better way. But maybe this is the right solution.
