I keep hearing about how much more 3rd party support there is for DCTV, but
the comparison doesn't seem to hold up. Re HAM-E third party support,
there is Aegis SpectraColor for HAM-E, The HAM-E Workshop, ASDG ADPro 2.0
support, BB's own ImageMaster, several superbitmap viewers; others that I'm
not remembering right now. I know that DCTV also has it's third party
support, so I'm not knocking that, just wanted to point out that HAM-E
isn't exactly behind at all. If your need is to go from Toaster to video
in real-time, and there's a DCTV conversion program to do it, more power to
them. Yeah, it would take a couple days to put together a snappy IM macro
to do the same thing for HAM-E images (I mean a real snappy one!), but
you'd have to know ARexx, etc….
But it's a moot point anyway. Black Belt confirmed that there weren't
making the HAM-E any longer. I hope it's because they have a big deal in
the works, but I guess we'll have to wait and see. TTFN
