@mothcompute the most frustrating part is that once it happens (and I still haven't figured out the mechanism by which the bubble starts appearing for a chat) it continues to happen even if you drag the bubble off screen to close it. you have to go find the toggle for the specific chat in the app (which is not a standardised UI flow between apps) to turn it back off.

@mothcompute I looked into it for ages and it seems like turning them off at the Android level only affects "official" Android apps, and individual apps do not have a unified control at the OS level to turn them off. so if an app decides it's going to show a bubble, it just can, and it is not required to have a mechanism to say no to that feature.

@mothcompute I turned them off in the Android settings and somehow they still keep happening
@gsuberland android is weird enough that i would guess its something like. you have to turn them off on an app by app basis instead of the global option

they switched the player display order because if they correctly put the runners in a row they'd disappear

@ajroach42 ah, sorry, I didn't spot that bit, I guess the previous bit of the thread didn't federate to my instance until after I replied.
that sounds like the way I'd approach it tbh. if the video output in the emulator nicely keeps things in their own classes you may be able to just write a new output "driver" class that hooks up the composite library, nice and neat.

@ajroach42 I've used this library on ESP32 for colour composite output and had excellent results. just make sure you feed clean power to the ESP32 as a wobbly voltage supply can mess up the composite output
https://docs.arduino.cc/libraries/esp_8_bit-color-composite-video-library/
@gsuberland Yep! I called that project out by name in the previous post.
But it doesn't currently bundle a gbc emulator, and I won't have time to re-write one to use that library between now and the event for which I am attempting to build these boxes.
If I don't come up with another option, I'll start with ESP 8 Bit and Espeon, probably, and see if I can't smack them together well enough to get it done.

@ozzelot @foone we have a couple folks in the UK demoscene with PSE and they're Amiga fans. coincidence? perhaps. perhaps not!

@simonzerafa @ferrix they're building the first energy producing research plant just up the road from my house, so I suspect you might be a bit off on your numbers there.
