fluxvis 1.0.0a4

Visualize floppy disk flux patterns

Flux Visualize

Produce flux visualization from any flux files recognized by greaseweazle

Visualization of a Commodore 1541 floppy as mastered by fluxengine:

When a fluxengine-style CSV file with decoder information is supplied, the interpretation of each portion of the disk is shown:

• Blue: metadata
• Green: successfully decoded data
• Red: data could not be decoded

Usage (via google colab)

• Visit https://colab.research.google.com/github/adafruit/fluxvis/blob/main/fluxvis.ipynb
• Follow the on-screen instructions.

Usage (local)

• pip install fluxvis

• Get your flux in a greaseweazle-compatible format such as .scp or in the ".a2r" format.

• Use a commandline like

  python -mfluxvis --tracks 35 --diameter 108 --stride 2 write dos33.scp dos33.png
  

  or

  python -mfluxvis --tracks 35 --diameter 108 --stride 2 show dos33.scp
  

Credits

Flux reading is done via embedded copies of greaseweazle and a2rchery. Thanks to @keirf and @a2-4am for these tools! See the source code for additional information.
