I run Martin Bazley's MBBack
http://starfighter.acornarcade.com/mysite/downloads/mbbback.zip
with about 10,000 jpegs in it's list of backdrops. But recently, on a
Titanium, it has started throwing up an error:
   Invalid controller/port ID
After this error disc reads seem to be OK, but attempting to write gives
"Bad Freespace Map" so it seems to be quite a serious bug!

Initially on the Titanium the error was that there was insufficient memory
available. It would do this every few days, so not a huge problem. Then
the error changed, apparently without cause. I updated the OS to 5.30
(15-May-24) but this hasn't changed things.

The program is written in BASIC and has never given an error in several
years running on an ARMX6. Martin doesn't have a Titanium to investigate.
