They were uploaded by me, but added by @pavero. Didn´t know they had issues, it seems it's the ZX81 screen format.

Somewhat related, but also not, the ZX81 entries also have a JSSpeccy URL, but JSSpeccy does not emulate a ZX81. The emulated Spectrum has no idea what to do with the contents of these TZX files.

Thanks @Stefan, the code just looks at the file type and sets if to display the emulator links. It needs to be smarter to check machine type too. It's on the list.

Which emulator did you use @Andre Leao. I will take a look. Normal ZX81 screens need to be converted with this tool:

I used Eightyone and converted with that tool, just as the other ZX81 screens I uploaded (and they seem fine)

@Andre Leao,

I'm not sure why, but if you choose machine type TS1500 in EightyOne, save the screenshot as bmp, then process through Kolbeck's screen converter as normal it seems to work fine. I'm working my way through them.
