Hi, I am upgrading my video gear, and have several items I want to sell to finance the new toys. They are: Video Vision Studio (original) – Mac full motion JPEG capture I/O card $2000 Intel Smart Video Recorder (not the pro model) – PC $250 Vidicraft Pro Switcher 4×4…
You are right Harry. The problem with AW isn't that it failed. Rather AW has succeeded far beyond the market. AW's managers decided that AW would go out with its head held high – which in magazine parley means still in the black. That status couldn't be maintained any longer,…
I thought I was trying to get some answers to questions posted. We devoted most of the Feb issue to 3D programs… Its possible there might be useful things there!
I plan on stopping by regularly, and no, I don't think I got a press kit…
Or you might want to check out the latest and greatest in 3D, and in great detail I might add, in the latest issue of DV Magazine. We look at 14 of the best packages for PCs, Macs, Amiga and SGI. Lou Wallace DV Magazine
Craig, you might look at the latest issue of DV Magazine. The theme is 3D, and we look at 14 programs (including Real3D) in considerable detail… Lou Wallace
#DV Reprints
Message #174550
Yes, DV stands for Digital Video Magazine. Reprints can be ordered from our marketing department, but keep in mind that means reprints of one or more articles in fairly large numbers – usually several hundreds to several thousands… Reprints of the Toaster/Flyer/Lightwave articles, columns and reviews would probably be done…
Just to echo what Jim said, I've been writing for over 10 years. Once, and only once was I offered a 'bribe' to get a good review. It was when I was a free lance writer about 8 years ago. I reported teh incident to my editor and went on…
There is a Mac file called MacLHA… that will do the trick. Lou
the Tao Editizer supports the Sanyo deck for editing… Lou
Personally, I would love to see LW available as a stand alone product for the Amiga, Mac, Windows, SGI, NT, etc… Newtek would quickly become a major force in the pro animation market (in terms of # of users and $$$). It is something I have asked about for several…
We used teh Indigo2 Extreme As for teh Amiga, as long as third parties make video products, multimedia products, special fx. we will cover it. Lou\
Thanks Charles. You pretty much summed it up. There are a lot of things happening on the other platforms. We will cover those happenings. We will also cover the Amiga. Lou
No Surprise
Message #81082
Just to assure those of you using AMiga systems, Digital Video Magazine will continue to cover the Amiga video and multimedia markets as long as third parties bring out new products. And that will continue for some time to come. Lou Wallace Editor-in-Chief Digital Video Magazine

It should come as no surprise that Digital Video Magazine will continue to cover the Amiga video market as long as third party products are developed – in spite of the Commodore situation. Lou Wallace Editor-in-Chief Digital Video Magazine

#Scan Convertors
Message #38260
Scan COnvertors & Encoders DTVW is doing a Spotlight on Scan COnvertors in an upcoming issue. What are your favorite hardware boxes/cards for getting video out of the AMiga? Lou
Mike, the makers of the personal Single Frame COntroller (Nucleus) told me they were adding support for the Sanyp vtr.. And it will do the looping effect you need. Lou
I suspect your analysis of how the Mac does it is correct – I am pretty sure that is how Video Vision (Radius) works.. The averaging isn't as bad as it would appear because the Mac and PC screens are usually 480 lines (at least), and would be more then…
I've been using the Sanyo Jerry. So far (about 3 months) it has worked well. ALl of the rendering was done with lightwave on an A3000… I've got a review of it in the current issue of Desktop Video World. Lou
On a good flyby you are moving too fast to notice the detail, usually anyway. If it is kept to a constant angle there isn't any movement detected, just a change in scale as you approach or move away. BTW – this is a technique I learned from a visit…
Well, the only real criteria is they must be interesting, high quality, artistic, 24/32 bit, dramatic, bizarre, photorealistic, abstract, colorful, detailed, and thought provoking… otherwise there isn't any criteria. Seriously though, just keep sending them in to the attention of Vinoy Laughner, our Managing Editor. He selects the images for…
Yep. Thanks for the help. Lou
The best thing is to take your 35mm camera out and pick the trees you want. Then go into an image editor and erase teh unwanted backgrounds. Lou
One variation I have done is to map pictures of trees onto a flat panel, then always keep the panel at the proper angle toward the camera so the tree always seems to be visible. Make sure the background image of the tree is transparent… Lou
Where is teh CE forum? Lou

#A3000's Wanted!
Message #123321
Wanted! A3000 & A3000T systems. I have been contacted by a company who needs several A3000 or A3000T computers. They must be in good shape, working order and have original packaging. If you know of someone please send me email. Lou
You might try the Sony EVO-9850, which is a pro level Hi8 VTR. It will be one of teh vtr's in teh spotlight section in the Feb issue. For digital work – try DPS PAR baord, again this is in teh Feb issue. And to subscribe, call 603 924 9471…
No, I am not currently using one, although I do plan on getting VideoVision Studio for my Mac RSN… That Avid price probably was accurate – if it included Media Suite Pro 2.0, the Mac and ram & GB hard disks. Still not bad for a complete NLE in todays…
Nate, the next issue of Desktop Video World will have VTR's in the Spotlight, including the new UVW line, Panasonics 7750, S-VHS decks from JVC and the EVO 9850 Hi8 from Sony. Also in the reviews section you will find the Sanyo S-VHS animation VTR. Lou Wallace Desktop Video World
John, Having been at Comdex, I can tell you DTV and multimedia were very well represented at the show – the entire south pavilion and two ajoinging annexs were filled with the stuff. And the other facilities had multimedia popping up as well. It was virtually all pc/windows however, with…
Fred, there are already several 10K range (or less) solutions available. Data Translation Media 100 is 12K, Avid Media Suite Pro is 10K. Radius Vidio Vision is Premiere 3.0 based, and RasterOps MoviePak 2 and SuperMac DigitalFilm are also available. These last three are in the 5K or less range.…

VT4000 & 1950
Message #62780
I wish they would John – but so far I haven't heard anything from anyone about it. A couple of days ago GENIE had a 'Commodore_Insiders' converence, where the unnamed guests indicated no work was being done on such a beastie by CBM… Lou
Sure can. It is 603 924 9471. Lou
Andrew – DTVW is a paid magazine, not o one of the 'freee' trade books around. The best thing to do to see about a comp copy is call our marketing department. The numbeis 800 441 4403 and ask someone there. Lou
#VT4000 & 1950
Message #62038
Has anyone found a fix for the the A4000/VT4000/1950 monitor problem? I had heard that there was a way to modify the existing adaptor…
Christopher, If you are looking for Desktop Video coverage in a magazine where the AMiga gets a fair shake on a regular basis, perhaps you should be looking at Desktop Video World Magazine. I suspect you will find it to your liking. Lou Wallace Editor-In-Chief, DTVW
Thanks Mike. I have already mentioned this in some other areas, so please feel free to pass it on. Digital Video is Desktop Video Magazine. We have been testing the name of Digital Video all year, although most of the tests have not been highly visible. The issue you mention,…
I am not sure about screens on Indy, but you can create multiple interfaces, customized to specific applications. A click of the mouse from one of the on screen interface icons and bing! you have that display. Keep in mind that Indy doesn't work in different color depths – all…
Paul, Indy is not a 'consumer' machine. It is a workstation that offers features of very high end systems at prices unheard of before. It will compete with Quadras, pentium and maybe even 040 Toasters. It is not a home machine. Lou
AmigaDOs isn't needed forIndy. It comes with Inigo Magic, a very nice multitasking interface that effectively hides Unix…
Yes, one Indy could outrun 5 VTs…
I'll leave my comments in secret until the next issue comes out… I do suggest you watch for the next Desktop Video World. Lou
