Improvements

  • Added support for multiple MEGA65 models including the 2024 batches aka R6; currently we support R3/R3A, R4, R5, R6

  • Added support for additional bi-directional Expansion Port signals

  • Increased robustness of HyperRAM

  • Support for the MEGA65's I2C architecture

  • Support for the MEGA65's real-time-clock

  • Two more 60Hz screen resolutions: 4:3 480p and 4:3 800x600 and one 59.94Hz screen resolution: 3:2 480p. Implemented by a more elegant aka dynamic video clock reprogramming.

  • Better HDMI compatibilty due to switching to the Tyto2 framework and due to fixing an audio bug

  • More robust reset handling: Cores start in reset state and the firmware is un-resetting the core when time is ripe

  • The power led indicates a long reset by switching to blue

  • Run/Stop now has a global "go back" semantic: It either closes an open window (including help screens or file selectors) or it goes back one menu level when the user is in a sub-menu.

Bug fixes

  • The "Audio improvements" feature only worked with analog audio (3.5mm jack) but not with digital audio via HDMI

  • Fixed a crash in the file browser

  • Fixed missing ".." in folders created with certain macOS versions

  • Fixed Run/Stop propagation bug when closing the OSM

  • MEGA65's internal floppy drive kepts spinning when a floppy was inserted.
