Switched to postfix underscores and gave this class ownership of a texture builder and an array builder, though it presently uses neither.

Fleshed out first implementation of ArrayBuilder , albeit that I need to implement exhaustion properly, as soon as I think of a sensible way to handle synchronisation.

Renamed the 'input buffer builder' to the 'input texture builder' to be explicit about what sort of buffer, and killed the prefix since it's namespaced. Also switched to std::vector .

Both pathways start with a buffer that clears to black. So no need to keep going on about it.

Eliminated zoned clearing, in favour of a complete buffer clear on each load and attempted to reduce locking. But imperfectly.

Normalised on std::vector rather than std::unique_ptr<uint8_t *> as (probably?) more idiomatic. Improved structure slightly. Introduced a container for line data, albeit one that isn't yet used.

Moved audio work back into its own thread, but this time it queues up an all happens only upon a flush. Hopefully to resolve synchronisation cost concerns.

Not having read the C++ synchronisation primitives before, this async task queue is probably incorrect. But nevertheless, let's have a quick go at employing it — in a hideously thread unsafe fashion — for audio generation. What can possibly go wrong?

It appears the Vic's output is sine-ish, after all. Also adjusted centre of display, simultaneously adding some validation on that.

Made a very basic stab at a couple of the tone generators, added straight-through path for the speaker when input rate exactly equals output rate.

Finally started on generalising the C++ stuff so as to be able to be able to get a working audio binding on the OS-specific side without further repetition by factoring an appropriate protocol out from the Electron and sketching out the correct speaker class for the Atari. Added a method to ask it what a good output frequency would be.

Introduced a four-cycle delay between playfield fetch and display, curing Yar's Revenge. Also disabled barrel roll scanling colouring again. I really need to make my mind up on that.

Realised that phase time can fit inside a single byte, since it's always (well) within the first quarter of the line — and if it somehow weren't (?) then taking it modulo the frequency would do.

Withdrew the pixel unpack buffer in order to avoid the potential for a paused machine to be undrawable. The cost is at least an extra memcpy per frame; I'm letting the driver worry about the whole process for now.

Switched to an in-framebuffer approach to phosphor decay, which might be acceptable now that every single pixel is being painted, re-emphasises luminance and stretched sampling period for the two FIR filters as well as decreasing the amount of signal that is retained, subjectively to improve output.

Factored out wraparound buffer addressing where it's otherwise going to get really repetitive; need to look at using the same approach for the glTexSubImage2D step at least but that probably means properly encapsulating the buffer builder's state.

Fixed: issue was (i) always thinking the entire source run buffer needed to be issued; and (ii) having fixed that, always thinking that the block that needs redrawing doesn't overflow the buffer.

Corrections back towards composite output: fixed misnamed constant, ensured the CRT doesn't write nonsense to the output buffer, ensured it grows three vertices at a time rather than six when desired.

Keeping a buffer permanently bound is apparently illegal. So back to copying in on demand. Which I think still improves on synchronisation, but not much.

Ensured the PIA timer resumes its normal tick rate after being read; fixed those spaces that had crept in where tabs should be.

The cathode ray view no longer hard codes the frame size. So that's one less coupling. Doubled pixel output size to give sufficient sampling detail to capture the NTSC colour clock (ummm, hopefully).

Broke assumption that every item in a vertex description is a short, specifically turning lateral into a byte. Which buys me a byte for phase, if that's sufficient.

I'm ashamed to admit, I: played with numbers until enough things looked stable such that I can investigate other things. Discovery: my PAL autodetection was way off. Fixed, hopefully.

Full separate 'lateral' usage is go. Also probably at some point I need to throw in a phase property, which this new flexibility will help with.

Started making the format of data included in a CRTFrame less a matter of variously hard-coded magic constants. Which will allow me to separate the idea of an internal lateral position from the direct texture coordinate, avoiding precision sampling errors at the top and bottom.

Fix to make sure end of vertical sync is always correctly spotted as an event, rather than just happening off the books. So I can now watch Joust roll to its heart's content.

Factored out a few more constants, started trying to ensure there's enough slack and the mechanisms in place for the CathodeRayView to hold onto two frames if it desires, for potential phosphor simulation, switched once again to additive blending — much more like a real CRT — and added a sine function across the width of spans per my understanding of how an electron gun actually fires.
Why do all this when overall timing is still so far off? It helps me more easily see how overall timing is so far off.

Continuing in my attempts to figure out the complete absence of graphics from some games: there are 262 lines on an NTSC screen, not 256. Also ensured that the CRT has a little spare range at the edges so that its generated triangles don't wrap around just because of integer overflow.

Slightly expanded width of cathode ray gun, decided to figure out exactly how to deal with off-by-one lengths and precision at a later date, ensured that failure to catch vertical sync doesn't cause out-of-bounds buffer access on the hard-coded, assumed large enough, 512x512 data textures.

Reshuffled to make the OpenGL view explicitly a conduit for CRT-style output, and to give it responsibility for frame drawing. Which is still an awkward thread hop for the time being, but I've yet to read up on the advocated approach to multithreading with an NSOpenGLView; it looked like special provisions were available.

The overall architecture of who has responsibility for what is now very askew but: the CRT now outputs a tightly packed short buffer, with the probable OpenGL destination in mind. So it's now all fixed arithmetic internally. CRTFrame is reduced to a plain C struct with the intention that the OpenGL view will take responsibility for it and stop doing the back-and-forth sprint on getting buffer data. The Atari 2600 now outputs explicit blanks rather than level blacks for its border, so that it's easier visually to debug the CRT in its form as far as it has currently progressed: to drawing lines where the cathode ray gun would run while outputting pixel. I note that I'm still not quite getting vertical sync right yet — I'm just accepting it anywhere in teh frame — but that should be an easy fix.

Looked up normal retrace time (it's a lot less than 16µs and 26 scanlines — more like 7 and 10) and that the visible portion of a line is defined to start about 12 µs after the start of hsync, put the first two numbers into my CRT to make that more accurate, then derived a newer guess about what the Atari 2600 does for each of its 228 cycles. The text version of a frame is now looking pretty good. So it's probably time to hit OpenGL and the OS X side of things. Though I'll have a quick look to find out whether I can learn the exact real Atari 2600 timings before moving on.

Made a quick attempt to accumulate a list of detected output runs. Which means finally having to specify normal frame height. I'm already at too many magic formulae though, so this will need proper revision when I'm next awake. Definitely my horizontal position advancement is way off.

This looks a lot closer to correct. The loss of horizontal sync during vertical sync is odd but the two should be fully decoupled in here. I'll have to check. Probably I've got something wrong. There are approximate sinusoidals when re-establishing sync, so that's promising as to the flywheel.
