Amiga 1200 S-Video Demonstration

[kristinwhite84]

Nice seeing another 26 year old girl using the Amiga! Well... I'm 27 now actually, but close enough. I'm hoping to get an A1200 set-up again. My last one was sold in 2005.

[kreeddem]

@kristinwhite84 I took mine apart for a project and was very guttid a year afer I done it, I have a A600 now and getting a A500 with a shed load of stuff for £20.00 today, canewait!

[cakestalker]

why would you use s-video when you can use rgb via scart?

[AmigaCammy]

@cakestalker

Who is implying anyone would use S-Video if their TV had RGB-Scart? In Australia and America it's far more common to find TVs with S-Video than Scart inputs.

[cakestalker]

@AmigaCammy

ah, i knew the u.s didn't really use scart but i thought australia used scart more or less as much as europe.

love the hair! Makes me say "Rapunzel, let down your hair!" like in that old fairy-tale =D

[alangr1980]

Hello Cammy. Can you please tell me when this nice kit will be available again? There is a message in amigamaniac site that says in two weeks, but since when? Thank you for your time!

[ThreeDLee09]

where can i get that card hanging out the back so i can link up a pc monitor? please help!

[AmigaCammy]

@ThreeDLee09

You can get them from the AmigaManiac website that I visit in this video but you need a LCD TV that has S-Video input.

[banido]

nice amiga collection you got there

[eurominet]

Been on Amiga for years, and never had the chance to connect it on a network....

Now you are younger than me and you're surfing the web with an Amiga ! lol :)

[iviarko]

Do you have an Ethernet connection? How do you get on line?

[kinmanyuen]

lol nice gear!

[AmigaCammy]

Hey, I'm just as old as the Amiga is, we both came out in 1985, I don't have children of my own, and my parents were never Amiga users either. I don't know whose children you're referring to, but there are none in my videos.

[Rishca1]

Is it os 3.9 you are using? because i can see a windowslike taskbar at the bottom?

[AmigaCammy]

I'm using Amiga OS 3.1 because 3.9 is too slow without RTG, and I still use AGA. The task bar at the bottom is called Workbench2000, and it's available to download on Aminet. It adds all the functionality you'd expect from as task bar and start menu, but it's very configurable and uses MUI.

[jimmyhumuhumu1]

Nothing is more beautiful than a beautiful girl on the amiga! :))))

[handlolo]

i like your videos, is admirably that a girl than younger like you, using Amiga.. ;)

[sammymarlo]

Nice!

[harleykman]

What happens when they stop making S-video connectors for screens? :-| Not only will I not be able to hook up my Amiga or Commodore 64, but my Atari, Super Nintendo, and N64 will also be kaput

.

[Mequa32]

@harleykman You get an S-Video to HDMI adapter?

[harleykman]

S-video isn't the best solution for a high-definition computer. Because the S-video is based upon analog NTSC the luma (black and white) resolution is limited to only 7 megahertz or approximately 720x480

.

The chroma (color) resolution is even worse - about 120x480. So that means blurring of the Amiga's pixels.

[altraz2k]

lol @music ;) it´s like heaven watching this vid :)

[noooly]

damnit, i think I need that thing... :] but it's out of stock now! :/

[fastnose]

you have all of these amigas that's just great! i only have the cd 32!

[chris21545]

great little vid, i see many amiga's :)

[Passie808]

Amiga-heaven

I miss Amiga : (

[DyLucke]

Works great Cammy

[QRhuggies]

I've got to get two of these units for my 1000 & 1200.

[RJLeffmann]

It's a lot quicker than I expected it to be on a 50Mhz 030. To be honest I was expecting it to crawl. I can imagine that surfing on an 060 with a graphics card is very smooth,

[Fonitran]

It's look great! 5/5 and fav :D

[MeMooSYTUK]

Awesome stuff, 5 stars.

[AmigaCammy]

The LCD TV is a 19" MXT LCD1904HDD and it has a built-in DVD player, HD tuner, VGA, HDMI, S-Video, Component, Composite, RF, Coax, PC-audio inputs, so it will hook up to just about anything.

My A1200 has a 68030 accelerator running at 50Mhz with 32MB RAM.

[gertsy]

I got mine today too.

Works like a dream. S-Video is clear and colourful.

I hope you got your indvision problem sorted.

Cheers.

[harleykman]

@AmigaCammy My Commodore Amiga 500 died (in a flood). Can I buy your 1200 please?

;-)

[AmigaCammy]

Oh dear, that's bad news, poor A500. I'm sorry though, my A1200 isn't for sale, I use her every day! :)

[Anemospspemu]
