Win.

Reminds me alot of the early full video games on PCs and systems like the 3DO and the Sega CD. For me though it reminds me of Mad Dog McCree... I miss that game.

[daxiongmao87]

@ObiTrev Haha yes!

[DanFrederiksen]

nice. why the dither though?

[uze6666]

@DanFrederiksen Due to it's 8-bit nature, the Uzebox has a hardware fixed 256 color palette. Not surprisingly, we have to dither to approximate the full color range of normal movies. :)

This is the best project i have seen so far.

How much SD Card Memory did the Video Use?

BTW: That was sweet, i'm building one soon :)

[uze6666]

168megs! It's naturally an uncompressed stream. :)

[PokeHacked]

I do not understand much of English, so I live in Argentina, you could send me the fuxebox?

[ObiTrev]

Reminds me of the full motion videos you would see on the 3DO or the Sega Disk Drive attachment...s

[uze6666]

Not bad for a 8-bit mcu with 4K of RAM eh?! :-)

[ObiTrev]

Yeah not bad at all! Now play an old cyber-craptastic post apocalyptic movie on it! It would be like watching the Lawnmower Man cut scenes on my Windows 98 Gateway!

[MultiPivotmasterdx]

awesome try to get 64-bit or 36-bit ;)

[jimbotron70]

Amazing.. now Dragon's Lair and Space Ace Uzebox porting is mandatory ;)

[dosenpfand]

[EmilElectrics]

Nice!

i ask you again... is it possible to connect the UzeBox to a european TV (PAL) Via the SCART-input? It has all kinds of inputs, so it has an RGB-Input, with a single sync-pin too.

[uze6666]

Sorry if I didn't reply before, 3/4 of the time I reply stuff, it is flushed by Youtube. >:(

I think it's possible with the SCRAT-RGB input, though the kernel timing would have to be adjusted for PAL. Search the uzebox forums for PAL*

[nrdesign1991]

Thanks for responding ;)

I think my TV could handle a 60 Hz mode, too, because there is that sync-pin.

BTW, were the Kernel downloads taken down? I couldn't find them anymore when i vidited the Uzebox website the last time :(

Sources have been moved to google code. Check the description box for the location.
