command line tool hxcfe - HxCFloppyEmulator

Post by Cyprian »

Hi All,
I'd like to automatize some of my work, therefore I'm trying to use hxcfe (from command line) as a replacement of HxCFloppyEmulator,

I run hxcfe with:

Code: Select all

hxcfe -usb:1 -doublestep -finput:DD_Floppy.msa
and see following output:

Code: Select all

libhxcfe version : 2.3.4.2

Input file : DD_Floppy.msa
Starting usb emulation - DD_Floppy.msa
Starting CPLDFloppyEmulator Hw manager...
Loading ftd2xx.dll...
FTDI library loaded successfully!
Device ok !
Checking DD_Floppy.msa
File loader found : ATARIST_MSA (ATARI ST MSA Loader)
Loading DD_Floppy.msa
file loader found!
track file successfully loaded and encoded!
USB HxCFloppyEmulator :Convert track data...
Starting emulation...
Interface mode : ATARIST_DD_FLOPPYMODE
Select line : 1
Double Step : yes
type q and enter to quit
but my Atari ST doesn't see that floppy disk. The same MSA file works fine with HxCFloppyEmulator

did I missed something?
thanks

Why did you activate the double step ?

The select line should be 0.
