Looks so unnatural. Yes Amiga was state of the art and Still can't comprehend how such a good thing can dissapear. If I remeber that at that point I played monochrome graphics on PC F-117A at my friend and was laughing at him why he even bought the machine. All I can say mysterious are the way of our lord almighty...
Can someone from Commodore or elswho provide me with and answer why did so advanced project die out? I really want to know? It puzzles me everytime I see videos like this one...
@misekmoj Innovation has often met failure whilst things that were knocked together for easy profit have succeeded. The Amiga is one such example. Numerous books have been written about the reasons but essentially Commodore were incompetent. They never realised what they had and failed to market it properly. Towards the end, they ploughed millions into misguided ideas like the CD32 console. Since Commodore's collapse, none of the subsequent owners managed any substantial marketing drives.
I meant compare cathode monitor and with LCD pictore, I was shoched when I played Warcraft 3 on both. In that time I changed the monitors. Exept for the space, I would be still looking at cathode monitor today. And they didn't perfectionized this technology and we go to 3D television which is idiotistic. This is modern economy so. Seel Seel Seel and implementing new wishes into peoples minds. Abaut the movie be played from my computer I almost puke. I don't know why but the picture ...
Can someone explain, why don't they reopen Amiga projet in modern days with graphics we had in 1995. You can clearly see that even with today graphics we went back... How is this possible. First we went from amiga to PCs. and from normal televisions to monitors and I don't know how they persuaded the public it was for the better. Then we went from cathode monitors to LCD another leap back. Put together those two and you don't have to be expert. If I play a movie from my computer and it can be HD
Yes it is hugely inefficient on disk space, as it is an uncompressed format. Back in the early 90s HDDs to store this amount of data where prohibitively expensive. In 1992, I only had an 80mb HDD.
This video would have needed 8 of them to store it!!! lol
This is more of a "because we can" novelty than a serious tool.

Is the wallpaper with sexy woman also displayed by Amiga?

Hi, yes everything you see in the video is Amiga

@ddniUK Incredible! What resolution and bit depth does it use?

@ddniUK Is there any emul for Windows? I have WinUAE, but I think it emulates only the old models.
Abrimaal 1 year ago
@Abrimaal
Use WinUAE, it can emulate everything from an A1000 through to a full RTG 060 powered A4000

Impressive. Any chance of this software being released to the rest of us Amigans? :)
Does the software support Ham8?

this would take a huge space on disk that time...

@ddniUK HAM6 required only half the space of 12-bit. HAM8 required only 1/3 the space. That doesn't include any software compression between frames.

Hiya,
What's it like on your 030? Any better than Action/MooVid?
TheNovaCoder 2 years ago
Hi, tried it on the 030 last w/e. It is just as snappy as on the 060 when the file is on the HDD.
CD playback via PCMCIA on 030 stutters whereas on 060 it is fine.

Blimey. Now that's impressive, coz HAM mode is usually slow as hell.

@SteveBenway Not true. The original 1986 Juggler demo ran almost full screen on a plain 1984 Amiga1000. It depends on the programmer!
