Thanks! Setting the XMMS volume to 75% seems to help.
I found that the WAV file I made for Euchre, which worked a few days ago, was
no longer being accepted by my Supercharger. It seems to be a rather finicky
device these days. Perhaps it is upset at not having been used for a while.
:)
I noticed in XMMS that a different kbps value was shown for my WAV file (352
kbps) and the Stella CD audio tracks ("14H" kbps - the H may be something
else; it's in a really tiny font). I thought that I may yet have been
missing another key setting. I added the -k2 switch and the new WAV file was
also encoded at "14H" kbps. For good measure, I threw in -w1 to make sine
waves, and lowered the byte size switches to -020 and -127, the same I had
used for Qb.
This time the Euchre WAV worked. I'm not sure if it will work consistently.
If it doesn't, I'll let the list know what I find.
For now, my most recent successful WAV file came from this command:
makewav -ts -f0 -020 -127 -w1 -k2 Euchre.bin
I'll be so very glad when I can get this onto a cartridge. :)
