This statement is entirely untrue, since:

I'm willing to be convinced otherwise. What part of the Konami patent requires hardware to work, as opposed to a software patent?_________________ I've decided to follow an awful lot of people I respect and leave AmigaWorld.

I don't know this patent you mention.
The thing is, software works as standalone. Computer-implemented invention for a change, requires embedded hardware to work ("the system").
Both could be read in respective legal acts. Also, that, in EU, "patents for software algorithms cannot be granted".
Please check the respective acts if you need to be sure. I've done it already, many times. _________________ Amiga 1200 + WARP 1260 + AmigaOS 3.2 |

You just met one then. BluRay is so much better quality than streamig, it's almost not compareable. So, I do, using my PC, in my lounge, where i also play games. Cyberlink software does it all. Last edited by SHADES on 18-Apr-2021 at 11:36 AM.

From a playback point of view , unprotected Blue-Ray content can be played back on a Sam460ex/cr machine with a Radeon Rx card and the accelerated video driver in the A-Eon Enhancer 2.0 package .
So if you can get unprotected content on a medium that the Sam460ex/cr can read then you can play it back with the above configuration .
