#108 CPC: Support for DPS (Dual Picture Viewer) SCR images

[SD Snatcher]

Please add support for the DPS (Dual Picture Viewer) SCR images.

These seem to be somehow related with the ConvImgCPC compressed format.

I attached here a collection of such files. They were extracted from this set of CPC disks and extracted with Amstrad CPC DSK Info Tool. Their reference renderings can be seen here.

It seems I made a mistake when extracting the files using the "Amstrad CPC DSK Info Tool" and the SCR files attached here ended up having their AMSDOS Header stripped.

The cpcrulez site seems to have been gone, so I couldn't find the original DSKs to try to extract them again.

But the good news is that I found this nifty tool, addamsdosheader, that re-adds those headers back to the files.

With the following command line, the headers were added and the resulting SCR files are now successfully read by the ConvImgCPC utility! 🎉

addamsdosheader <file> binary 0xC000 0xC7D0

So, I'm attaching here the fixed files. Please add support for Recoil to read them, since they're much more convenient than the usual SCR+PAL files:

• Single file: the palette is embedded
• Compressed: More pictures can be stored per 3" floppy disk

  Note: This site was blocking the upload, probably because of the files .SCR extension, so I password-encrypted it. The password is "CPC".
