moviematchlength is "hidden" in page 9 of this thread and even though I read the thread several times by now, it didn't "click". I agree that it sounds like the problem though.

since I generated my ini file using buddamame -cc, I'm more than likely using whatever the default is. Is it set to 10 by default? If not is might be a good idea to do that.

It's set to 1 by default for backward compatibility.

I'll make it 10 by default going forward. BuddaMAME v0.94 will be out imminently. I'll also put something about -moviematchlength on the first page.

papaschtroumpf:
Great thanks!
I'll re-run roms through "A" tonight to see if I get better results (sounds like I will for sure).
Silver:
4enraya worked fine for me.

Yes I'm using Xvid not DivX - I've not tested DivX anywhere near as much.

Assuming you can run the game itself normally, then it could be DivX. I will look into it next week to check. The only other thing is if you are using an Athlon64 - I have no idea if that would cause a problem with Vdub/mame but it may be possible. I can't see any other processer having a problem...
papaschtroumpf:
The problem is not with Vdub, it happens as soon as I launch buddamame with the moveimaking options even though I can play the game with buddamame.
It's pretty rare for a computer to reboot itself consistently like that, which is why I thought that maybe this tried to execute instructions that the Athlon XP doesn't like, but I don't think the binary included in the buddamame 0.92 zip is optimized in any way.
Weird but not a huge issue.
Silver:
Hmm, sorry missed the bit about rebooting....

So you can run mame 4enraya and play it fine, but if you run mame -makemovie (moviesettings) 4enraya it reboots your pc?

Does it reboot straight away or at a certain point?

I'm running an AthlonXp too with no problem (WinXP,sp2 for the record). I doubt very much that there is much in BuddaBings code to cause this...

Its possible that its an IO issue with your system. Mame taxes your CPU quite a lot, mame with moviemaker also gets your system to write a load of files as fast as it can - but it would only reboot if you had a faulty system. Do you have another pc to test on?
