Steve put in a bunch of effort towards both of these things quite a while back:


The image there (apparently in "dd" type sector dump—probably what you'd want 
to try with a Gotek—as well as the ancient "TeleDisk" format for DOS utilities) 
is described as being the T200/T102/M100 triple-compatibility disk, which I 
would assume is the 26-3806 disk.

I don't have what you need, but I just wanted to chime in that I'd like to
see someone post such a thing on GitHub. I've got a T200 and love it, but
am rather curious about the DVI and hope to get one someday.

Hi Guys, I hope it's OK to resurrect an old email thread. My DVI Gotek is still 
working well with my T102, but I've added a T200 to my collection and I'd like 
to add a disk image for the T200 onto the Gotek. I still haven't figured out 
how to create a disk image, so if anyone can help to either describe how I can 
create a disk image from the T200 DVI floppy disk, or if anyone already has a 
T200 DVI disk image file that they could supply, then I'd be very grateful!

No, I think it was my fault. I missed out the “ [m100dvi]” you listed at the 
start of the FF.CFG file on your email Josh.
I’m currently making a couple of blank images now to hold saved data & basic 
program. Thanks again for your help!

Re: [M100] Adding Gotek to T100 Disk Video Interface

[James Zeun]

Yes, the DVI is great for the display. I use my M100 for writing, so being
able to use it at home in tandem with a larger screen is great.

The floppy drives are great, but would be even better if they could be read
by another machine. I will certainly be looking at fitting a gotek, as my
DVI has only one floppy drive and a big gaping hole above, where one has
been removed.

Hopefully one day it will be possible to read to and from the IMG files.

Cheers
James

You mean like this?



That's an old game display (xbox 360?) clamped on to my M100 back in the day, 
with an extended cable going back to the DVI.

>images on a regular pc? If say I wrote a document and wanted to access it on

I always meant to look into that but never got around to it; apart from the 
novelty I really only used the DVI for the display and just loaded/saved the 
usual RS232 way. But there were quite a few parameter-driven format conversion 
programs around in the old days to deal with the hundreds if not thousands of 
different 'standards'  used by the various manufacturers, so I'd be surprised 
if it couldn't be done; maybe someone on here has in fact already done it.

Enjoy!

  Hey


  Just been reading this. My DVI is currently in storage, but I’ve been meaning

  I’m no expert when it comes to using the DVI, I had a play about with it and

  One question I must ask, how easy is it to read the contents of the disk

When I just have the Gotek drive installed I get the error “In Drive0 is NOT a 
SYSTEM DISKETTE”

If I configure the Gotek as drive 1 and boot from the floppy, I’m ok until I 
try and do a directory of drive 1 (LFILES 1) and then I get the error “?AT 
Error”

Puzzling 

Ah, yes - The "Amigos" folks re-post (with my permission) many of my live 
Twitch streams to YT and, of course, I don't get notified of comments there. I 
should probably come up with a way to fix that.

The image, however, is only part of the trick: you also need lines in FF.CFG 
and IMG.CFG (You are running "FlashFloppy" on your Gotek, right?)

FF.CFG:

interface = ibmpc
host = unspecified
pin02 = nc
pin34 = nc


And IMG.CFG:
[m100dvi]
cyls=40
heads=1
secs=18
bps=256
h=0

Then make sure all your DVI images use filenames ".m100dvi.img" so 
that they pick up the geometry from IMG.CFG.

Good luck!

I think one of the main issues is that I don't have a disk image. I tried to 
convert the DVI.TD0 disk image on the Club 100 library to a .IMG file without 
success.

You beat me to it!

I was just setting up a git repo of the files I used and got working.

https://github.com/Grimakis/Tandy-DVI-Gotek/tree/main

One thing I will note, without adding a cskew=1 in my IMG file, I did not
get it to work.

I recently converted a DVI for Tandy collector. There was a fellow on this
list (I think) who had compatible images but in the end, the collector I
was doing the conversion for supplied working images on a drive. I've
posted it here:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cfH6ro03RoDosoi5P2CNwRaErn-vftOV/view?usp=share_link

The image, however, is only part of the trick: you also need lines in
FF.CFG and IMG.CFG (You are running "FlashFloppy" on your Gotek, right?)

FF.CFG:

interface = ibmpc
host = unspecified
pin02 = nc
pin34 = nc


And IMG.CFG:
[m100dvi]
cyls=40
heads=1
secs=18
bps=256
h=0

Then make sure all your DVI images use filenames ".m100dvi.img"
so that they pick up the geometry from IMG.CFG.

Good luck!
