Thanks for pointing us to the VDMS utility. It's great.
Yes, there are some options in the VDMS.ini file that seem
to help. In the [SB Wave player.config] section, I've reduced
the "buffer" setting to zero. And in the [DMA Transfer Manager.config]
section, I've reduced the "minDMAPeriod" setting to zero.
There's still a perceivable delay in Combat (the program I'm testing with).
But it might be in the real game, played on an actual 2600. Anyone able
to verify this?
