Unable to find a codec translation path from ilbc to gsm

When setting up my new asterisk box, I stumbled onto a problem with ILBC.. To fix the following error

[Jun 15 20:56:46] WARNING[2528]: channel.c:2774 set_format:

Unable to find a codec translation path from ilbc to gsm

Add:

disallow=ilbc

to your config to stop Asterisk from trying to use ILBC. Or you could install ILBC support, I guess ;)

How to play Gameboy Games on the Nintendo DS

To play GBC games such as Pokemon Gold and Silver on the DS, you have a few options. One of them is to use Goomba Color to create a Gameboy Advance rom package, and then play using a Slot 2 flash device. The other way (that I use!) is to use Lameboy DS.

I think Lameboy is the preferable option, because it does away with the need for a Slot 2 flash cart (If you haven't already got one!), and secondly because it emulates the Real Time Clock needed to play Pokemon games properly.

To get started, you'll need to have:

• DS Flash Card
• DLDI File for your card
• DLDI Patcher for your Operating System
• Latest Version of Lameboy

Start by downloading the latest version of Lameboy, along with the apropriate DLDI file for your card. Using whichever patcher runs on your system, patch Lameboy's NDS file.

Copy it over to the storage of your card, along with your GB/GBC roms. [Do NOT ask me where to find roms!] Launch Lameboy from the menu of your card, and hopefully you should be able to play some classic games!

If it crashes, or you get a solid colour screen, check you've used the correct DLDI file. If that doesn't fix the problem, I'd redownload each file to ensure against corruption. Otherwise, you might ask for help on the Pocket Heaven, or GBA Temp Forums.

Permanently saving progress is a little different in Lameboy. In games such as Pokemon, you save like normal using the menu. This only saves into RAM, however. To save to your flash cart, press the X button and Lameboy will transfer the save into a .sav file! Otherwise, you'll be scratching your head wondering why it didn't save!

I've managed to play up to Goldenrod City in Pokemon Silver without any trouble. One thing to note though, is to not press X immediately after you Save in game. It'll lock up, without saving (As I found out!)
