Hi Michael,

Yes, I also found this when checking the old drivers.

Yes, I think that's the best idea for now. Oktagon also used to have a
different limit but that was never ported to the new ESP core.

But it's slower... :-P
Also, I may be adding another board-specific version for the Blizzard
12x0 IV to enable 24-bit transfers, like the am53c974 driver does, in
a later patch.
Kind regards,
Kars.
