Why do some options in the emulator not work with Lunter TAP files, but only with Warajevo TAP files?

0

Put simply, the Warajevo TAP format is much richer than the Lunter TAP format, so the Lunter TAP format can not support so many features. Q: Can the Warajevo TAP format store all kinds of programs (like TZX files), including speedlock protected programs, etc. A: This was a frequent question in discussions on the Internet, and we saw many wrong answers. The correct answer is: yes! Starting from Warajevo 2.0, the Warajevo TAP format allows the storage of all type of records, including music records. However, TZX file format is more compact for storing non-standard saved programs. Before release 2.0, the Warajevo TAP format didn’t have any more power than Lunter’s TAP format for storing programs. The possibility of loading some non-standard saved programs in release 1.5. was possible due to an intelligent algorithm in the emulator itself, not due to extra information in a TAP file!
