| Not this sounds GREAT! I have an A1200 that could use this so consider me a customer

| This is a fake. There's no way Jens designed this, there's no clockport!
Nice bit of kit - just what the classic Amiga needs. Well done. _________________ AmigaOne X1000, A4000(T), A3000, A2000, A1200(T), A1200, A500, CD32, Minimig+ARM, FPGA Arcade, Chameleon64, C-One, C128, C128D, C64C, C64, VIC-20, CBM 8032, CBM4032, Efika, Ultimate64

| Looks great! Too bad I don't own any A1200's. I have several A4000's that I would buy this for, however....bring it on for A4000 and A4000T :)
Oh, I should mention...keep in mind many of us have Mediators so some kind of pass-thru for a single monitor connection would be very nice.
For me most of the "pain in the ass" of not having a flicker fixer/scan doubler is not being able to see the early startup. Last edited by HammerD on 26-Jul-2008 at 02:20 AM. Last edited by HammerD on 26-Jul-2008 at 02:20 AM.

| I see it supports genlocks but will/does the A4000 version work with the video toaster. |

| @HammerD I am also interested in an A4000 version. My concern is if it will physically fit in an A4000 that uses the Mediator.
As you mention, a pass-through or switching for a VGA signal from a PCI card would be nice, but I would want one regardless. _________________ http://www.hostcove.com http://www.youtube.com/hostcove Sam460 : X1000 : X5000

| @ AmigaKit / Jens
Would it also fit inside the CD32 ? Don't suppose you could try and report back
If not when you make a version for the A4000 would it be possible to make it so it fits in the CD32 too ? Last edited by JurassicC on 26-Jul-2008 at 05:47 AM.

| It does not fit in any other computer than the A1200. On the 4000D, the Zorro daughtercard is in the way, on the CD32, it would stick out the case, and it supposedly does not fit in an A4000T either (I don't own one).
The LISA-Socket will have to be rotated and the shape of the PCB adapted to those computers. My main target will be the 4000D, then make sure it'll also fit the 4000T (should be easily possible), and then I can only pray that the CD32 won't need a special version on it's own.

| Looks good, although I can't afford one at present.
I think that it's kind of funny that the flicker-fixer has 8x the memory of the AGA chipset. I wonder if it could be reprogrammed to offer 16-bit chunky graphics, etc...

| Hi Jens, sounds great (about A4000). If possible it should fit around the Mediator bus board...as many of us A4000(T) users have those installed...
And don't forget the pass-thru :)

| Slightly off-topic but still related to screenmodes...I was playing around with OS4 amiga screenmodes and with the overscan prefs...I had the "VGA" monitor activated and was using the "multiscan" screenmode which works okay with my monitor in OS4 workbench...but when I go to overscan in OS4 and i pick "multiscan" to adjust, it is out of range on my monitor and so I got a blank screen. Then after rebooting, still in OS4, I went to my old OS3.9 overscan prefs, it works! No blank screen...
So OS4 overscan prefs for "multiscan" is using some freq. lower (pre-VGA setting) versus the actual one set in screenmode prefs is high cause it is using post-VGA monitor setting ?
Also noticed that in OS4 "Productivity Double" seems to be actually half in the vertical resolution versus the regular "Productivity" mode. "Double" shows 640x240 versus 640x480 for regular. Horz/vert. freq. are the same...is this a bug? |

| This is fantastic news, and I intend to purchase one! As has already been posted, a passthrough for RTG cards would be nice and personally I'd be willing to pay that extra bit for it.
Also, will this fit in with my ELBOX FastATA 1200 MKIII?
keep up the great development!

| I have questions 3...
1: Will this fit in a non-towered 1200?
2: WIll it fall off like an A600 accelerator use to do?
3: Does it use the same Monitor output as usual, or a new standard VGA port on that blank cut out bit at the back? _________________ Rage quited 29th May 2011

Yes, like all other internal versions.

Normally not or do you use your Amiga as football or something?

It has a standard VGA connector. _________________ AMIGA 1200 | Vampire 1200 II | 128 MB RAM | Indivision AGA Mk3 | 128 GB CF | AmigaOS 3.2.2 AMIGA 600 | Vampire 600 II | 128 MB RAM | Indivision ECS Mk4 | 128 GB CF | AmigaOS 3.2.2

| It's a pity that they could not design one that works with most computers (rather than one albeit popular model of Amiga). Does it really need access to the video chip to manage more than just doubling the refresh rate? e.g. Wouldn't it be possible to have a "scan tripler" that just plugged into a video output? _________________ Author of the PortablE programming language.
