James, where did you come up with the frame speed used in N.G. Mammals?

#16891- Sony Laser Library Message #17064
From: Keith E. Myers CDROM Forum · General January 15, 1992 11:32 PM
Ran, you mention possibly putting more smarts on the adapter card to help reduce the CPU overhead… have you heard anything about a new type adapter card being developed by Sony? I had heard rumors that a new card for the Sony 8K CDROM drives will be released around June/July…
Sony Laser Library Message #17003

Bryan – I think you've hit the nail on the head here. Until they get the MPEG algorithm fully integrated into the MPC, I don't think we need to worry for a while about full-motion video data streaming throughput. That will be in about a year and a half by…
#Sony MPC Fix? Message #17002
From: Keith E. Myers CDROM Forum · General January 14, 1992 11:56 PM
Has anyone heard of the rumor that Sony is coming out with a new Sony-Bus interface card for the older 6201 and 7205 CDROM drives with small 8K buffers which will enable them to meet the data transfer rate equivalent to the MPC 64K buffer data transfer rate? I hear…

Fritz, first you were vague in saying whether you had a sound board yet. If so, is it a Sound Blaster Pro or Pro Audio Spectrum or Turtle Beach sound board? It is has to be one of these currently relased boards if you want to do Multimedia Extensions for…

Supposedly it is available here in L.A. at CompUSA.
#15073 Sony 7205 interface Message #15133
From: Keith E. Myers CDROM Forum · DOS, Windows, OS/2 November 29, 1991 3:43 AM
You can buy the 7205 through Advanced Computer Products (800) 366-3227 either as a standalone or bundled as the Sony Library for $599. The interface is $99. The Library gets you a 6 disk bundle along with the drive. Cheers, Keith.
#14995 MM Extensions Message #15032
From: Keith E. Myers CDROM Forum · Macintosh November 24, 1991 9:57 PM
Neil, I use the audio ouputs from the CD player as an input to the Pro. That's the fun thing to do with the sampling capabilities of the MM extensions, the Pro, and Voyetra Jr. the MIDI S/W program that comes bundled with th Pro. I use the onboard amplifier…

Yep, I think you're right Steve. I already contacted Monty and queried him on an update that will be MM compatible. The problem lies with the replacement of his FM.drv with the MM sound driver. The MM driver is not compatible with PLAYER. He couldn't give me a firm date…
#MM Extensions Message #14934
From: Keith E. Myers CDROM Forum · Macintosh November 22, 1991 1:16 AM
Bernie, I'm pretty sure that the MM Extensions will work without the SoundBlaster but of course most of the extensions advantages is in the audio area. There are some pretty stiff standards that the sound card has to meet such as digital audio input/output etc, but other cards such as…
