#Truevision DVR
4 messages in this thread
Hey all! Have I miss something or you already have comented the new DVR
technology by Truevision. This is the long awaited step ahead that
Truevision had have to do, and seems that won't be a board, but a new
entire technology, base of all Truevision products. Boys and girls, I just
have download the text file (there is a postSript file which I suppose full
of illustrations) and it looks like the promised land of professional
video. It just leaves ANYTHING currently in the market IN THE DIRTY DUST.
And certainly, I don't think that anybody will make a step in a near
future. In my opinion, anyone in the process of buying a board MUST hold
and wait until the first boards releases. Seems to me like a never-ending
technology with true full scalability. Well, anyone want to start a
discussion and/or thoughts? 🙂

Ana,
I've heard absolutely nothing about DVR. What does it do? Is it a realtime
rendering system (Virtual Reality) or some sort of video editing package?
Where did you get the file on it?

Jerry,
Get DVR.txt or DVR.pso from the Truevision section (section 6) in the
Multimedia Vendor forum (Multiven). The postscript file contains only one
lousy picture and takes 18min to download at 2400bps, so you may want to
get just the text version.

I suspect it is some sort of 'plug-in-chip-as-you-work' video adapter.
Speculating, you could buy this board (which might have a VGA built in) and
then buy plug in chips when you can afford them. The idea being that if you
need a VideoVGA you buy that chip and plug in, if you needed a Vista you buy
that chip and plug it in (use TSR software to switch between card modes even
though all chips are plugged in) etc, etc. This would save slots and prevent
address clashes.
