My Minimig playing an HAM (4096 colours) video at 24 fps with stereo sound. The resolution of the clip is 320x160 and it's directly streamed from a hardfile on the SDHC card (required throughput: 950 KB/s). The software for playing and converting the video files has been written by T.J. Edminster aka DamageX.

  • Basically this is Run Length Encoding done in hardware. If you could find a firmware that can play Microsoft Video or Cinepak clips using the GPU as a decoder, it would be a similar thing.

  • @JasperAbraxxious I think it's more like 300 MB.

  • Hello yaqubed, I have a few questions about the source video, and the HAM target video. How does the file size of the target video compare against the source video? What was the source video/sound compressed? Is there any sound/video compression usd other than HAM in the target video? What is the quality of the sound in the target video?

  • @zobot123 - Not fake, its simply a ham6 anim5 file - a basic amiga 1000 from 1985 can do this. Anim5 and ham mode has been around on the Amiga since the mid 80s, the only reason you have not seen something like this earlier is that the compression on anim5 is almost non existant - just this Transformers preview probably takes up 50 Mb!

    If you want to see something impressive, watch the same thing running in Ham8. :)

  • Some how, this is how them shitty CDTV/32 titles should have looked ;)

  • Looks fake, theres a serious jump in sound, looks iffy. Sorry if im wrong.

  • Where I can download software? Want to do such thing on my A600HD/7MHz =)

  • Holy heck how is this possible? This blows my HP Mini with windoze xp on it. This probably runs so quick because the harddrive doesn't take up over 12 gigs of harddrive space for the operating system. The real reason this video plays on this system is because they are not using Adobe Flash Player.

  • Excellent :-)

  • Amiga, still ahead of it's time to this day.
