Unable to dump 64MB GBA carts about cartreader HOT 8 OPEN

Can you open the cartridge and take a picture of the pcb ? If it uses Matrix Memory chips, then a bad dump is expected. Some 32 and 64MB video carts are using them.
This mapping is not yet supported and needs to be added to OSCR (Duplo worked on that and his code may be ported ? https://github.com/endrift/duplo)

Hi, Duplo dev here. The only 64 MB cartridges I know of are the Game Boy Advance Video movies (and maybe one episode pack?), and Duplo can dump all of these. The "mapper" (it works very differently from normal mappers) is pretty simple to set up, so I can help if needed.

It's on a Matrix chip which I understand are the more difficult ones to work with, but I hope the OSCR could be tweaked to handle it!

Yep, that's the normal type of Matrix 3D Memory cartridge.

Nice, I'll check out duplo. Need to get the hardware first, only have DS models with no GB slot currently. Ill work on that!

@endrift , have you maybe tried to port your code to OSCR ? And then Psychofox may help to validate it with his GBA Video carts. I'm grabbing some of them too, but low chance that they contain these Matrix chips inside.

The trick to finding one with a 64 MB Matrix memory chip is to get one of the movies. Shrek, Shrek 2 and Shrek 2 + Shark Tale always have the chip

The PDF (first link) posted here might help with this as it's a similar (but not identical) chip: #942 (reply in thread)
