The emulator works best in 480i mode. It runs perfectly fine in 576i mode as well, but does not utilize the full resolution. This is an SDL issue, and will not be fixed until [[SDL-Port]] supports it. Sound support is slightly buggy, but usable. The emulation itself is not perfect, so not ''all'' games will run under Frodo. Unfortunately, I cannot do very much about this since I haven't ''written'' the emulator - just ported it. If you have multiple versions of a game, try each of them as often at least one will work.

Put '''.t64''', '''.d64''', '''prg''' or '''p00''' files in '''/apps/frodo/images''' on your SD card. The in-game menu allows you to insert disks/tapes, load them and configure the display, joystick ports etc. Saves will be stored on the SD card and the preferences are stored persistently. Wiimote 1 is by default the joystick in port 1 and wiimote 2 the joystick in port 2, but you can swap this.

From version 9 onwards, Frodo/Wii supports playing games over the Internet. Traffic is completely peer-to-peer, but connections are handled through a third-party server at [http://c64-network.game-host.org/~ska/stats.html c64-network.game-host.org]. This allows players to find each other, but also NAT-traversal. To play over the network, follow these steps:
