Marat Fayzullin has updated the port of his ColecoVision emulator ColEm to the Android platform.

I have released ColEm-Android 2.9.2, an updated version of my ColecoVision emulator with support for GoogleTV:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...s.colem.deluxe (full version)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...=com.fms.colem (free version)

The main changes include above mentioned GoogleTV support for ARM-based devices running Android 4.x, such as LG G2/G3 TVs, and the switch to the native sound API, to minimize latency and improve performance. I have made many smaller changes as well, bringing ColEm in line with my other emulators updated over the last two weeks.

• ColEm now runs on GoogleTVs updated to Android 4.x (LG G2/G3).
• Now defaulting to OpenSLES native audio, for minimal latency.
• Now recycling bitmaps to prevent Bitmap.nativeCreate() crashes.
• Added optional grid view to the File Selector, default for GoogleTVs.
• Added extra folder and cartridge icons to the File Selector.
• Added "Audio Rate" setting, for controlling sampling rate.
• Added "Native Audio" setting, for disabling OpenSLES, if needed.
• No longer requiring touchscreen support from the Android device.
• Fixed icons not being shown for File Selector entries with real names.
• Fixed audio initialization always setting 100ms latency.
• Fixed audio pause/resume when activity pauses or resumes.
• Fixed inconsistencies during replay.
• Refactored audio control between Java and native code.
• Removed logging code from record/replay.
