VLAB MOTION
John,
Don't you just wish the A3000 had those AGA custom chips! It would be the
ideal machine … oops, sorry I was gone but now I'm back <grin>!
I don't know if MovieShop will open on a FireCracker24 screen, but I can
assure you that MovieShop works extremely well on a 4 color public screen. I
doubt there is any advantage to running MovieShop on the FireCracker24 since
the MovieShop screen is primarily for control/setup and you will need a NTSC
monitor to view the VLAB-M output.
DEC Alpha — we have to be serious rendering fools, no <big grin>?
My 1Gb Micropolis video hard drive is mounted externally because I already
have a 1Gb Conner internally moounted. As long as you obey all the rules of
SCSI, there is absolutely no reason you would have to mount your 2Gb
internally. In fact, for cooling purposes you may want to put it in an external
case.
Here is my first tip for you when you install VLAB-M: if you make any changes
to your buffer settings, save them as defaults, quit MovieShop, and then
restart it! If I didn't do this little ritual, I was sure to face a crash
shortly after the changes — and that can get real annoying.
