Until just recently, MAME32 V0.35 worked fine for me. Now, every now and then, it simply exits completely (so I don't even go back to the GUI) while playing a game. This only seems to happen when I am recording the game I am playing, and it only happens intermittently, always at different stages in the games, and it seems it can happen in any game. I have not made any system changes to my system since then.
<p>

Sometimes after it has happened, when I immediately start MAME32 again and start recording again, it works fine, sometimes not. Rebooting the system does not seem to have any positive or negative effect either.

<p>

Has anybody encountered this before? Has anybody found a way to prevent this from happening?

<p>

Thanks.
Cheers,
Ben Jos.

I found that now I've changed using Seal with DirectSound into plain
DirectSound, it does not crash anymore. Until recently, I didn't do
very much recording either, so I guess it only happened while using
the Seal/DirectSound combination *while recording*. It also always
happened fairly early on in the recordings, so if I made it past 10
minutes or so without crashing, it wouldn't crash anymore.

<p>

Just thought I'd report this.
