Is it just my NDS that rumbles the rumble pack continuously whilst Tuna-Vids is in use?
Is this a known bug? I've grepped the code quickly and can't see any references to stuff that should cause this...
Also, I can't make it work with any films other than 256x192 (I tried encoding at 256x160, for example) - it just hangs on startup...

I believe the method for making a rumble pack rumble involves either reading or writing (can't remember which) to the GBA address space. Therefore, a faulty RAM detection routine could be triggering the rumble.

Yeah, I remember it to be either RAM *or* RUMBLE you can use, not both, so RAM detection might cause the issue.
This might be very wrong though.

Some people have told me that this happens on the M3 Real when Quake is initialising the libfat's dldi driver. Weird...

OT @ simonjhall: If I do get an M3 tuesday (I have started a poll in the DS Flash Equipment forum, feel free to participate!), it will be with a RAM & Rumble pack, so I can offer to take a closer look at that issue, then, if you don't mind. :^)

Ah. I am using the M3 Real, so that would make sense...

M3 Real is slot-1 isn't it? A slot-1 DLDI shouldn't be touching slot-2. Maybe it's incorrectly setting EXMEMCNT?

Or some part of the software, like the DLDI "driver" is checking for SLOT2 extensions, for whatever reason.

I've done some tests, and I can confirm that the moment the arm9 code calls fatInitDefault(); the rumble pack starts rumbling...

Thank god someone who knows what they're doing can confirm this! Thanks!
(so much better than some brain-dead youtube comment telling me how sh!t the game is with the rumble constantly going ;-)

Here's my brain-dead gbadev comment:
QuakeDS is shit with the rumble constantly going.
#158342 - simonjhall - Mon Jun 09, 2008 1:53 pm
LOL
I made it so that the videos I have on YouTube have approve-only comments, which deters the majority of crap comments. I still had one yesterday on the 1 frame-per-second Q2DS video that was just "LOL THIS IS SHIT". Yeah, I'm gonna approve that! Mark spam + block user :-)

Add a "setRumble(0);" after the fatInitDefault(); call?
That seems to limit the rumbling to a couple of seconds as the FAT lib wakes up...

I think this explains a lot.
