I'm not sure what the interest level in this is but to make sure the information is out there here is another update. I spent the day polishing the Dingoo Native port of Oh Boy. Loading is now working properly along with saving settings. Save/load state isn't working at the moment but it isn't far away.

Ideas for improvement
•Merge Oh Boy SDL port with gnuboy SDL port code. Existing SDL port has things like disable sound option, show frames per second. Oh Boy SDL port has frame skip
•Sound control, disable option (in menu)
•screenshot support
•Menu item wrap-around; E.g. at top of menu and press up move to last item in menu, at top of menu and press down move to first item in menu. There is already support for left/right wrapping.
•Menu - enable fast/page scrolling
•gnuboy keybinding, i.e. instead of using SDL key names use gnuboy ones so that .rc file can be used to allow end user to configure keys without requiring a rebuild
•allow no scaling (i.e. native res), add support for frames ala Lemonboy
•Document frame skip
•Document menu system library/API
•Load/save state screenshot display/saving. Joyrider has an nice implementation for this.
•Dingoo: bug fix background image loading
•Dingoo: implement under/over clocking option
Completed¶
•Uses latest gnuboy code
•Dingoo port: Sound control, volume in menu (there is an OSD sound option, that requires keys this is different)
•Dingoo: bug fix rom loader issues
•Completed file selector code to deal with "../" more intelligently
•Converted chose dir code to be like load file code (i.e. remove chdir/getcwd code)
•Save config saves ROM dir with correct escapes for paths (for Dingoo)
•Dingoo only bug - load/save state was not working
•Dingoo only bug - load/save batteryand savestate/loading only works if "saves" directory (config setting "savedir") already exists ( and specified in .rc file). mkdir now works on Dingoo port.
