The patch program you're referring to was a fix to appl_tplay, which
didn't work correctly in the ROM TOS release.  Appl_tplay was fixed in
Mega TOS.

I'm not sure about v_dspcur(), but I seem to remember something odd
about it... I believe you have to call the function twice in order to get
it to work (don't ask me why!).

Luck...
