DRC (Dynamic Recompiler) and Playback

[kranser]

With the MAME 0.125 DRC changes - some CPUs (probably the later, more demanding, ones) have a Dynamic recompiler.

The DRC has frontends and backends for different processors - I presume that is correct. And I think it dynamically recompiles based on the processor type of the machine running MAME.

If I am correct - then surely this would affect playback, and recordings would only playback on machines using the same processor type as that of the recorder.

Is this correct? If so, how will MARP handle this?

Most systems that use a dynarec core are far too slow, even with it enabled. Except for Killer Instinct 1 & 2, perhaps. Which have had a dynarec CPU core for ages. It plays back fine, you just have to be aware of deleting the .dif (hard disk difference) file before recording.
