They say DAW means "Digital Audio Workstation" but I think it's secretly called that because it's the sound a cool synth bass makes.

Let me explain the stakes and how we got here.

06.09.2025 09:04 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0The NTSC tags were just added by hand by users, that's why there are so few of them. I'll consider the CIA search.

23.08.2025 13:55 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0#deepsid Two new triangular buttons let you toggle tags on/off and cycle through the information shown in SID rows. Click this link for more information.
17.08.2025 09:55 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0Maybe it would be better to show nothing, but it actually does proceed to the next tune after the 5 minute mark.
09.08.2025 21:34 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0#deepsid You can now see the song length in the bottom right corner of SID rows (except in the SID Happens folder). For songs with multiple subtunes, the song length for the default subtune is shown.

07.08.2025 15:10 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0#deepsid DeepSID now caches CSDb data, such as images, release and SID pages, to improve loading times and reduce the pressure on the CSDb server.
25.07.2025 14:24 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0#deepsid You can now navigate the SID folders using keyboard controls; specifically, the arrow keys (up/down), Home, End, Page Up, Page Down, and Enter to select a SID row. Press Backspace to go back one folder. Click this link for more information.

14.07.2025 19:22 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0#deepsid You can now use the left and right arrow keys to skip to the previous or next SID row.
08.07.2025 12:14 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0You want to know where it stems from. I use a SIDinfo tool to extract that sort of info from each SID file.
06.07.2025 20:14 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0That would be me.
06.07.2025 19:51 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Bingo.
06.07.2025 19:50 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Unlike CIA/VBI, which is something the emulator figures out as it starts playing, PAL/NTSC is stored in the database and it's shown regardless of the pace setting.
06.07.2025 05:12 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0PAL or NTSC is 60 hz versus 50 hz (the difference between screen refresh rates across USA and Europe). But it's true, when a tune is using CIA it shouldn't matter if it's PAL or NTSC.
06.07.2025 05:11 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0The information is not in the database because whether it uses CIA is something the SID emulator figures out when it starts playing the song. So unfortunately you can't search for it.
By the way, you can toggle between NTSC and PAL while the tune plays. Just click the small flag in the info box.
#deepsid HVSC has now been updated to version #83 at DeepSID. As always, CSDb pages will be missing until they have updated too. Click this link to see what's new in it.
