I'll try to be as clear and concise as possible with this, but I just can't get any games to work with Daphne at all. Firstly, here is my setup: Windows XP Home, DVD2Daph Version 3.0 *RC1*, Daphne v0.99.6. I believe these are the latest versions of the software.
I have bought DVD-Video versions of Dragons Lair and Space Ace seperately. These are the ones with a yellow star on the front stating "DVD-Video XBox* & PS2** Compatible". I know the old version of DVD2Daph would not support these particular versions of DL and SA.... but the blurb with version 3.0 says that ALL versions of DL anid SA are now supported.
I've managed to configure my set up correctly (I think!). I've got my roms unzipped in their own sub-directory in the ROMS folder. I've got the video files placed in their own sub-directory in an mpegs folder I made myself. I placed the framefiles in the framefiles folder.... these framefiles were made by DVD2Daph on conversion from the original DVDs. The only thing I had to do was edit the top line from .\ to C:\Daphne\mpegs\gamename to point to the relevant mpeg subfolder. I then configured each game in Daphne before starting, selecting my player type as "Virtual LDP (MPEG/Ogg)" and pointing to my framefile by using the "Browse" button.
However, when I start Space Ace I get a message "Press any key to parse your video files etc". Then I get short glimpses from particular scenes in the game repeating over and over. This goes on for ages and the game never starts. When I try to play Dragons Lair I get the same parse video message but on pressing any key it lasts for about 2 seconds before giving a Windows error screen "Daphne.exe encountered a problem and needs to close". I only get this error with DL not Space Ace, but neither game will start.
Just for the record.... the number of files I have in my Dragons Lair mpeg folder after conversion is exactly 197 (not counting readme and fileframe texts) and for Space Ace the number is 455. This may help if someone can point to any possible missing files. They are all .VOB and .VOB.ogg files except for the very first two files in the list which are named "sa-slates".
I've read loads of posts on the Daphne forum and my own research has got me this far. But I can go no further without requesting help from you guys. Oh by the way... MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!
