Otioprog and PSX4DINGOO

By -

Otioprog steps up to the mark and has made a video of the Dingoo running a PSX emulator:

Otio’s aim is to play Final Fantasy VII on it.  Judge for yourself whether it’s worth his effort!

Also check out his blog: http://psx4dingoo.blogspot.com/ (although it seems to be down for the moment).

    If you were going to fake it with a video - then why would you do it at less than 1fps?

    Dumb

    It is however seemingly proof that PSX emulation is out of reach for the little dingoo - an emu can run but will probably never run at a decent speed...

    It clearly isnt fake. You can see him cycling through the text at various points. If this was a video he would he skipped out of it using the button presses.

    This is fake.
    Something blue at top - dingoo video player (?)
    I'm sorry.
    But(!) gp2x f100 is older and slower console, but it support psx.
    I think, in fact psx emulator will be making by china dingoo digital team in native OS.
    (for example, i seen (not working in fact) prboom game .app for native os in one china blog)

    it could be fake, all he has to do is lock the buttons and press em, but it looks genuine, why would they run it so slow if it was fake

    Hopefully it's real, I know it will most likely never work 100% but if it could get Tomba! and Einhander to playable working speed, good enough for me.

    the comment above this is stupid. this is obviously not a completed emulator, it may run smoothly with tweaks

    I'm sure it's not fake because it hardly takes any know-how to compile something for dingux, however if it is worth it is another thing altogether. The Dingoo lacks any 3D hardware and is short on ram. I can tell you right now it will NEVER run smoothly, no matter how optimized it gets because the Dingoo simply does not have the horsepower necessary. Not to mention the dude specifically states on his blog that he isn't a professional coder, which would definitely be necessary to take on such an endeavour. Maybe I would trust this guy if he had a track-record; some other things he's programmed to show, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I hate to be a pessimist, I really do, but almost nothing will be playable and I feel like any serious coder would know that. Cool POC, but that's all it is.

    PS1 Technical Specs:

    CPU: 32-bit RISC (33.9MHz)
    RAM: 2MB, 1MB Video RAM
    Graphics: 3D Geometry Engine, with 2D rotation, scaling, transparency and fading and 3D texture mapping and shading
    Colors: 16.7 million
    Sprites: 4,000
    Polygons: 360,000 per second
    Resolution: 640x480
    Sound: 16-bit 24 channel PCM


    if it gets optimized it should run some game realy well (Resident Evil is a good example it runned very well on my ppc with fpsece i was getting around 15-20fps on average)

    And since RISC & MIPS architecture are pretty close see : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIPS_architecture some ASM optimisation could make it run even better than my 400mhz Xscale(ARM) ppc did.

    So quit saying it not possible or that it will never be fast enough when you dont have a clue of what you are talking about.

    All i have to say now it keep working on it ..its the main reason i keep my x760+ in hope to see psx running on it and since my programming knowledges a limited to modding c/c++ sources porting is out of question for me (and last time i touched some codes 4-5 years ago it was for pocketquake had to change 0xC1 to 0xD1 and a few others if you see what i mean ;)

    Im reading myself and i dont want to open the door for a other troll.
    All im saying is that SOME games COULD run well after a few optimisations.

    The real question is is it worth it ..HELL YEAH ps1 have one of the bigest game catalogue if only 1/100 of these run at a 10+fps it still worth it.
    10 fps with frame skipping can look and feel like 30fps ..thats fine for a emulated game ..even some racing games could work well (moto racer 1 comes to mind it was running well on fpsece)

    So dont try to get me wrong ..i know it will never be perfect ..not all ps1 games work on my quad core pc ..why ? because its emulation its never perfect ..but if it can work well enough to play just a few games at decent speed WHY NOT ? :)

Dingoo A380 Review

By -
Image
The nice folk at isharegifts gracefully sent me a sample Dingoo A380 for review. Having declared my pecuniary interest, in truth though, after playing with this new Dingoo, bribery and graft is strictly unnecessary for its promotion.  IMHO, the product does stand on its own merits.  It remains a testament to the original A320, and its rabid, passionate community (hey, that’s us dudes) that even in 2011, some 3 years after the word “Dingoo” became somewhat a part of the English language,  that it still remains the best Dingoo-type device.  This is because it is still the best supported, thanks to Booboo’s original Dingux, and now OpenDingux.  Dingux means access to emulators and software other than those that came with the original A320’s native uCos firmware.  Dingux allows for ports of games like Doom and Duke Nukem.  Dingux is what turned the A320 from a glorified media player into the device we know and love. It’s still necessary to put Dingux onto a stock standard A320 thoug

With the release of FAT Dingux, it is now possible to install Dingux using only Windows!  As promised, here is The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Installing Dingux – Using Windoze Edition.  Grab the guide here in PDF , zipped here , or here for HTML . 18 October 2009 Update:   The above links will always contain the latest version of this guide . While the guide was written in July 2009, the technique shown in it remains the same as at the update date shown in green.  However, the guide refers to toddler’s or warped flash’s “local.zip” files, and contains links to these files, which are outdated. The links used to point to the A320 freeforums, until the dastardly Dan deleted them !

A somewhat new game for Dingux from ZX-81: Dingux-Mancala: A Mancala Game v1.1.0 for Dingoo/Dingux Hi All, Mancala is a board game familly, originated in East Africa. The word "Mancala" came from arabic word "naqalah" that means literaly "To move". Dingux-Mancala is the "Awari" variant, and even if the rule of this game is simple, the complexity can be compared to chess Game. The AI is based on the source code of H. Huseby & G.T. Lines, for their implementation of the classical Minimax algorithm. How to use it ? Everything is in the README.txt file. Sources are included, and this package is under the GNU public license, read COPYING.txt file for more information about it. How to play ?

The Dingoo-Scene JXD S7800B (Rockchip 3188 SoC) Android Gaming Console Review

By -
Image
1. Introduction      Since the introduction of the somewhat venerable Yinlips YDPG18, Android handheld gaming devices have been released pretty much continuously, by any number of Chinese manufacturers.      They’re not released with retrogaming in mind however.  Dedicated Android handhelds with physical controls for the consumption of nostalgic childhood memories are simply not in great demand in China, and accordingly, these devices have never been well supported by their makers, as far as the multitude of little tweaks and twerks that the Western retrogamer demands in the quest for ultimate emulation fidelity are concerned.  The view of China based manufacturers seems to be that the physical controls are an adjunct to the primary function of the device – hey, it’s an Android tablet, what else do you want?  Foremost among such frustrations has been OASS: “ornamental analog stick syndrome”, which sadly afflicts many of the devices released to date. What use are any physical cont

Tauon PC-1 review

You should give this a chance. It deserves one. Welcome to the Tauon PC-1. A Tauon is an incredibly  geeky sciency thing , as it happens, and has nothing to do with the  Great Eastern Philosopher . You won't find it for sale anywhere other than on Tauon's website , and on ebay so far as I can see,  and then only if you're a regular visitor of the ebay "vintage computer hardware" category.  It won't even turn up on ebay if you search for the product name: "Tauon PC1"  - you'll just stumble upon it one day, when you're looking for a replacement floppy drive, or a C64.  So, what is it? It's a computer in a dinky little case! Hardware wise, it has: Allwinner H3 Quad Core SOC [1ghz to 1.2ghz/1gb RAM/8GB internal NAND storage] SD slot USB slot,  HDMI and composite out Ethernet Wifi UART (send/receive signals through terminal commands) I2C (drivers aren't ready yet, but promised).   Inside the case - y

If Santa was kind this year, he may have brought you one of these:   If Santa did, you'll have worked out by now that 64 built-in games, classics though some of them are, is simply  not enough .   Your travels may have led you to this c64 romset:  https://archive.org/details/C64Romset , which contains 17,068 games. If you pop them on a USB stick and slip it into your c64 Maxi/Mini, only the first 256 games will appear.  This is because there is a limit of 256 items per folder that can be displayed on the c64 mini/maxi loader. So you need to split the games into individual folders, each containing n

An interview with the creator of the Tauon PC-1, Volodymyr Mishin

By -
I'll bet you don't roll out of bed and think about making your own PC before breakfast.  Even you do, I bet you haven't actually  shipped . Here's someone who has.   I reached out to the creator of the  Tauon PC-1 , Volodymyr Mishyn who kindly took more than a little time to answer some detailed questions about the PC-1, how it came to be, the challenges of a project like this, his future plans for Tauon OS and what is clearly a very personal labour of love.   Many thanks Volodymyr.   Your  news blog  suggests 30 days to prototype, and 6 months to ship! If that is right, it is very impressive, given the technical and logistical activities that had to occur.  Is there more to this story? I was looking for available options before I started the project. I got myself a couple PI (3B, Zero) OrangePi, C-SKY. And tried to build some kind of educational PC for my kid. Unfortunately, the performance was awful, using Linux was too complicated even for me (I h
