from 4 to 5. This means any diff CHDs will no longer work. If you
absolutely need to keep the data for any existing ones you have,
find both the diff CHD and the original CHD for the game in question
and upgrade using these commands:
rename diff\game.dif diff\game-old.dif
chdman copy -i diff\game-old.dif -ip roms\game.chd -o diff\game.dif -op roms\game.chd -c none
Specifics regarding this change:
Defined a new CHD version 5. New features/behaviors of this version:
- support for up to 4 codecs; each block can use 1 of the 4
- new LZMA codec, which tends to do better than zlib overall
- new FLAC codec, primarily used for CDs (but can be applied anywhere)
- upgraded AVHuff codec now uses FLAC for encoding audio
- new Huffman codec, used to catch more nearly-uncompressable blocks
- compressed CHDs now use a compressed map for significant savings
- CHDs now are aware of a "unit" size; each hunk holds 1 or more units
(in general units map to sectors for hard disks/CDs)
- diff'ing against a parent now diffs at the unit level, greatly
improving compression
Rewrote and modernized chd.c. CHD versions prior to 3 are unsupported,
and version 3/4 CHDs are only supported for reading. Creating a new
CHD now leaves the file open. Added methods to read and write at the
unit and byte level, removing the need to handle this manually. Added
metadata access methods that pass astrings and dynamic_buffers to
simplify the interfaces. A companion class chd_compressor now
implements full multithreaded compression, analyzing and compressing
multiple hunks independently in parallel. Split the codec
implementations out into a separate file chdcodec.*
Updated harddisk.c and cdrom.c to rely on the caching/byte-level read/
write capabilities of the chd_file class. cdrom.c (and chdman) now also
pad CDs to 4-frame boundaries instead of hunk boundaries, ensuring that
the same SHA1 hashes are produced regardless of the hunk size.
Rewrote chdman.exe entirely, switching from positional parameters to
proper options. Use "chdman help" to get a list of commands, and
"chdman help <command>" to get help for any particular command. Many
redundant commands were removed now that additional flexibility is
available. Some basic mappings:
Old: chdman -createblankhd <out.chd> <cyls> <heads> <secs>
New: chdman createhd -o <out.chd> -chs <cyls>,<heads>,<secs>
Old: chdman -createuncomphd <in.raw> <out.chd> ....
New: chdman createhd -i <in.raw> -o <out.chd> -c none ....
Old: chdman -verifyfix <in.chd>
New: chdman verify -i <in.chd> -f
Old: chdman -merge <parent.chd> <diff.chd> <out.chd>
New: chdman copy -i <diff.chd> -ip <parent.chd> -o <out.chd>
Old: chdman -diff <parent.chd> <compare.chd> <diff.chd>
New: chdman copy -i <compare.chd> -o <diff.chd> -op <parent.chd>
Old: chdman -update <in.chd> <out.chd>
New: chdman copy -i <in.chd> -o <out.chd>
Added new core file coretmpl.h to hold core template classes. For now
just one class, dynamic_array<> is defined, which acts like an array
of a given object but which can be appended to and/or resized. Also
defines dynamic_buffer as dynamic_array<UINT8> for holding an
arbitrary buffer of bytes. Expect to see these used a lot.
Added new core helper hashing.c/.h which defines classes for each of
the common hashing methods and creator classes to wrap the
computation of these hashes. A future work item is to reimplement
the core emulator hashing code using these.
Split bit buffer helpers out into C++ classes and into their own
public header in bitstream.h.
Updated huffman.c/.h to C++, and changed the interface to make it
more flexible to use in nonstandard ways. Also added huffman compression
of the static tree for slightly better compression rates.
Created flac.c/.h as simplified C++ wrappers around the FLAC interface.
A future work item is to convert the samples sound device to a modern
device and leverage this for reading FLAC files.
Renamed avcomp.* to avhuff.*, updated to C++, and added support for
FLAC as the audio encoding mechanism. The old huffman audio is still
supported for decode only.
Added a variant of core_fload that loads to a dynamic_buffer.
Tweaked winwork.c a bit to not limit the maximum number of processors
unless the work queue was created with the WORK_QUEUE_FLAG_HIGH_FREQ
option. Further adjustments here are likely going to be necessary.
Fixed bug in aviio.c which caused errors when reading some AVI files.

almost certainly some regressions lurking. Let me know if
something seems busted.
Bitmaps are now strongly typed based on format. bitmap_t still
exists as an abstract base class, but it is almost never used.
Instead, format-specific bitmap classes are provided:
bitmap_ind8 == 8bpp indexed
bitmap_ind16 == 16bpp indexed
bitmap_ind32 == 32bpp indexed
bitmap_ind64 == 64bpp indexed
bitmap_rgb32 == 32bpp RGB
bitmap_argb32 == 32bpp ARGB
bitmap_yuy16 == 16bpp YUY
For each format, a generic pix() method is provided which
references pixels of the correct type. The old pix8/pix16/pix32/
pix64 methods still exist in the short term, but the only one
available is the one that matches the bitmap's pixel size. Note
also that the old RGB15 format bitmaps are no longer supported
at all.
Converted model1, megadriv, and stv drivers away from the RGB15
format bitmaps.
New auto_bitmap_<type>_alloc() macros are provided for allocating
the appropriate type of bitmap.
Screen update functions now must specify the correct bitmap type
as their input parameters. For static update functions the
SCREEN_UPDATE macro is now replaced with SCREEN_UPDATE_RGB32 and
SCREEN_UPDATE_IND16 macros. All existing drivers have been
updated to use the correct macros.
Screen update functions are now required for all screens; there
is no longer any default behavior of copying a "default" bitmap
to the screen (in fact the default bitmap has been deprecated).
Use one of the following to specify your screen_update callback:
MCFG_SCREEN_UPDATE_STATIC(name) - static functions
MCFG_SCREEN_UPDATE_DRIVER(class, func) - driver members
MCFG_SCREEN_UPDATE_DEVICE(tag, class, func) - device members
Because the target bitmap format can now be deduced from the
screen update function itself, the MCFG_SCREEN_FORMAT macro is
no longer necessary, and has been removed. If you specify a
screen update callback that takes a bitmap_ind16, then the screen
will be configured to use a 16bpp indexed bitmap, and if you
specify a callback that takes a bitmap_rgb32, then a 32bpp RGB
bitmap will be provided.
Extended the bitmap classes to support wrapping a subregion of
another bitmap, and cleaner allocation/resetting. The preferred
use of bitmaps now is to define them directly in drivers/devices
and use allocate() or wrap() to set them up, rather than
allocating them via auto_bitmap_*_alloc().
Several common devices needed overhauls or changes as a result
of the above changes:
* Reorganized the laserdisc base driver and all the laserdisc
drivers as modern C++ devices, cleaning the code up
considerably. Merged ldsound device into the laserdsc
device since modern devices are flexible enough to handle
it.
* Reorganized the v9938 device as a modern C++ device. Removed
v9938mod.c in favor of template functions in v9938.c directly.
* Added independent ind16 and rgb32 callbacks for TMS340x0 devices.
* All video devices are now hard-coded to either ind16 or rgb32
bitmaps. The most notable is the mc6845 which is rgb32, and
required changes to a number of consumers.
* Added screen_update methods to most video devices so they can be
directly called via MCFG_SCREEN_UPDATE_DEVICE instead of creating
tons of stub functions.

macros with bitmap->pix* functions, and moved bitmap_fill() to bitmap->fill()
among other similar changes. Bitmap fields now only available via accessors.
Replaced sect_rect with &= and union_rect with |= operators for rectangle
classes. Some general cleanup as a result of these changes. [Aaron Giles]

compilation:
- new option CPP_COMPILE to trigger this (off by default)
- split CFLAGS into common, C-only, and C++-only flags
- when enabled, CPP_COMPILE causes 'pp' to be appended to
the target name
NOTE THAT THE SYSTEM CANNOT ACTUALLY BE COMPILED THIS WAY
YET. IT IS JUST AN EXPERIMENT.
Modified lib.mak to always build zlib/expat as C regardless
of CPP_COMPILE.
Modified windows.mak to fix warnings with MAXOPT=1, and to
leverage the new CFLAGs definitions.
Modified vconv.c to do appropriate conversions for new C++
options.
Updated sources so that libutil, libocore (Windows), and
libosd (Windows) can be cleanly compiled as C or C++. This
was mostly adding some casts against void *.
Fixed a few more general obvious problems at random
locations in the source:
- device->class is now device->devclass
- TYPES_COMPATIBLE uses typeid() when compiled for C++
- some functions with reserved names ('xor' in particular)
were renamed
- nested enums and structs were pulled out into separate
definitions (under C++ these would need to be scoped to
be referenced)
- TOKEN_VALUE cannot use .field=x initialization in C++ :(

This handler works for both disc-only games and those with overlays.
For disc-only games, the base macro is sufficient. For games with
overlays, an additional set of configuration macros are provided:
MDRV_LASERDISC_OVERLAY - specifies update function, width, height,
and bitmap format of the overlay
MDRV_LASERDISC_OVERLAY_CLIP - specifies the visible area of the
overlay bitmap
MDRV_LASERDISC_OVERLAY_POSITION - specifies default x,y position
MDRV_LASERDISC_OVERLAY_SCALE - specifies default x,y scale factors
The update function provided to MDRV_LASERDISC_OVERLAY is identical to
a normal VIDEO_UPDATE callback, so a standard one can be used. All
existing laserdisc drivers have been updated to support this new
rendering mechanism, removing much duplicated code.
Added the ability to configure the overlay position and scale
parameters at runtime. Added OSD menus to control them. Added logic
to save/restore the data in the game's configuration file.
Added new macros MDRV_LASERDISC_SCREEN_ADD_NTSC and _PAL, which
defines a standard screen with the correct video timing characteristics
and update function for laserdiscs. Updated all drivers to use these
macros instead of defining their own screens.
Added DISK_REGIONS to all laserdisc drivers.
Added DISK_IMAGE_READONLY_OPTIONAL to support games (like Cube Quest)
where the disk is non-essential to the game's operation.
Fixed bug in identifying the custom sound driver for the laserdisc.
Updated ldverify to identify blank regions of the disc for post-
processing.
Fixed rendering 16bpp with alpha using bilinear filters (fixes
screenshots of laserdisc games with overlays).
Included support for parsing .gdi files in chdman. [ElSemi]
Added new driver for Cube Quest. This includes CPU cores for the three
bitslice processors, as well as laserdisc support for the hacked
laserdisc that was used to drive the games.
[Philip Bennett, Joe Magiera, Warren Ondras]
Note that the SHA1/MD5 for the laserdisc will likely undergo at least
one more change before being finalized.

Removed channels parameter from avcomp decode configuration.
Fixed incorrect test in winwork that led to spinning instead
of using the nicely allocated events we had on hand.
Forced a sound synchronization on each vsync in the laserdisc
playback. This prevents overwriting the tail end of the
buffer which was fouling up the MACH 3 audio decoding.
Removed obsolete size check for uncompressable audio data.

streams and a delta-RLE pre-encoding. Added optimized
case for the Y/Cb/Y/Cr video encoding case. Cleaned up
the code.
Updated avcomp.c to use the new huffman.c functions.
Reworked configuration options to allow for both input
and output of naturally aligned data streams. Updated
chdman and laserdsc to use the new interfaces. New
compression gives an additional 3-7% over previous
attempt and compresses the dummy CHDs down significantly.
