Pb with conversion HFE to DMK (TRS80)

[Luigi]

Hi,

I am using HxC Floppy Emulator Rev C with a TRS80 (model 4), and encounter the following problem:

1) I downloaded
13GHOSTS.DSK
from
http://www.classiccmp.org/cpmarchives/t ... DMK%5d.zip

2) I converted it to
13GHOSTS_DSK.hfe
thanks to HxCFloppyEmulator v2.0.15.1 - libhxcfe v2.4.0.5 (on a Windows 7 64 bits system)

3) Once the SD card put in the HxC, everything is OK between the TRS80 and this HFE file (either for reading or writing)

4) Now, back on Windows, I am trying to convert
13GHOSTS_DSK.hfe [to make things simple, I take exactly the one obtained in 2)]
to a TRS80 DMK file.
==> this makes HxCFloppyEmulator crash

Note: no problem with the HFE --> JV3 conversion

Can you help me please?

mmhh i didn't reproduce the issue with a WinXP machine and i don't have access to a Win7 64 until next week.
can you retry with the command line tool ?

hxcfe -conv:TRS80_DMK -finput:13GHOSTS_DSK.hfe

[Luigi]

It works with the command line tool:

C:\Users\Louis\Documents\tmp\HxC\HxCFloppyEmulator_soft\Test>hxcfe -conv:TRS80_DMK -finput:13GHOSTS_DSK.hfe

and I have been able to read the obtained DMK with the TRS32 emulator.

Many thanks!

I tried the same test with the GUI version on Windows 8 (64-bit) and it works fine for me.

Anyway there was a problem into the DMK writer code : a bad free was done at the end. This is now corrected on the repository.
