[06:18] <grogbot> <eriktorbjorn> I assume that's the unofficial talkie version? It seems I can reproduce it, but I don't know what makes it decide to pick that resource over the recorded tracks, and I don't have the time to look right now.

[12:41] <treloret2> Seeing a discussion going on, the term you're looking for is closed captioned, which is a superset of subtitles for the hearing impaired.
[14:38] <grogbot> <JeffCharizardFlame> Glad that the mtropolis engine is getting some work put in. Been itching to see some of those games working in ScummVM, but couldn't see it happening until recently due to the lack of tools.
[14:39] <grogbot> <JeffCharizardFlame> Especially since I think demos of some of the mTropolis suite were only available in Mac demo disks iirc

[18:09] <grogbot> <eriktorbjorn> I think the game decides on startup whether or not the "CD" audio tracks are available or not, and then sticks with that decision for the rest of the game. So when you load a saved game, you get whatever it decided when that game was started.
[18:11] <grogbot> <eriktorbjorn> I.e. it's scripted. Theoretically I guess ScummVM could override that decision later, though this isn't the only game that behaves unexpectedly if you switch audio in mid-game.

[19:56] <grogbot> <Retrodude> Congrats! Also, what the heck is "spooled music?

[19:59] <Scummette> scummvm/master b3d0813 orgads: SCUMM: Fix indentation
[20:04] <grogbot> <timofonic> No idea too. There are a Full Throttle reference manual and a 19yo ScummVM bug that seems nobody gave love https://bugs.scummvm.org/ticket/737
[20:07] <treloret2> I think basically a background thread dedicated to playing music. Comparable to a printer spooler. You keep the spooler buffer full and it handles the rest.
[20:08] <grogbot> <timofonic> Examine the entire bugtracker would be a titanic task but it may give tons of surprises
[20:15] <grogbot> <timofonic> @Bosca Were you aware of that bugtracker item? Is it relevant?
[20:24] <grogbot> <eientei> > Full Throttle is not a supported game

[20:39] <grogbot> <Bosca> Thanks! Spooled Music is just... the music 😄 it was given the possibility to disable it back in the day since it has to be streamed continuously from the data files, and some CD drives were very slow back then
[20:41] <grogbot> <Bosca> No, I wasn't, but it isn't relevant as it was filed 20 years ago when FT wasn't supported, and audio playback now works fine
[20:41] <grogbot> <Bosca> That's exactly it! The thread fetches audio data at every callback, and feeds the audio output streams
[21:15] <treloret2> So close to having my 1st successful PR, then the jpeg issue mentioned in a PR yesterday kicked in.
[21:20] <grogbot> <Retrodude> Ah, good to know.

[22:37] <grogbot> <Retrodude> So would unchecking the option turn the music off altogether?
[22:38] <grogbot> <Retrodude> Or would the music be truncated for a slower machine?
[22:41] <grogbot> <Retrodude> I recall a few Humongous games had the latter option as part of the "slow machine mode" with some of the Junior Arcade games, which would use much shorter loops to save on RAM space

[23:03] <grogbot> <timofonic> In retrospect, the same will happen with any game in 20 years 🤣
