Amiga Youtube videos

Here is my latest video with improvements. It is short, but gives a good sample of Joerg's OWB browser.

After buying better video converter hardware and building a completely new Windows computer on 64 bit hardware and software to do the recording, the 720p video quality is better. Unfortunately the Windows box is still too slow as you can see some recording skips. I'm going to save up money to upgrade either the CPU or the hard disk and try again.

Wow, this is so much faster then on my SAM 440 flex 800MHz. If I even move the mouse while playing a module in MilkyTracker, it starts skipping badly, and the mouse pointer gets jerky too. OWB is also much faster.

@logicalheart

Cool video!

@RuDeE

Hey, that's no good. On my SamFlex800, I can normally play MODs in MilkyTracker, and watch DVD in a small window at the same time. What video card do you have?

@logicalheart

Hi,

I tried to reduce the resolution of MT, in 640x480 it plays OK, even when I do other stuff, though not perfect. I don't think I would be able to watch a DVD at the same time. I have a Radeon 9250 card with 128 MB of memory.

@RuDeE
I am also using a Radeon 9250 card. My SAM workbench uses 1280x1024 resolution. I can run 3 copies of MilkyTracker, all playing MODs at the same time. Maybe you can respond to these questions:
1) Are you using MilkyTracker version 0.90.80_01 on OS4depot?
2) Do you have Composting enabled in your Workbench Prefs ->GUI->options?
3) How much system RAM do you have, 512 MB, or 1 GB?
4) Are you using onboard sound, or a sound card?
5) What AHI mode are you using.

I think so. It says 0.90.80 in the readme file, at least. I downloaded it from os4depot not too long ago.

Yes I have that turned on. I'll try switching it off to see what effect it will have.
Quote:
I have 1 GB of RAM.
Quote:
I am using the onboard sound card.

Doesn't AHI support higher D/A resolutions than 16-bit?

Slightly off-topic, but keeping with the Amiga video theme, I came accross a video I had not seen the other day. I had seen the Deathbed Vigil but never this one from the earlyer days at Commodore-Amiga:

@RuDeE
I have the same setup as you do except I only have 512 MB of RAM instead of 1 GB.
I wonder what is slowing you down?
Maybe there are some startup programs running in the WBstartup folder, or in the user-startup file?

Battle for Wesnoth 1.4.7 on my ?A1-C (recorded with SRec):

@salass00

Wow, you got good results with SRec by lowering the recording resolution. I watched both the Battle for Westnoth, and the Exult / CDXL videos. Thanks for posting.

I'll upload a video recorded with the ZMBV codec too. It will have better quality than current videos recorded on A1 because unlike MJPG this is a lossless codec since it uses only zlib for compression, but still has pretty good compression ratio and will be even better if I manage to get interframes encoding working.

For SAM440EP the best codec for recording is currently RGB because of the fast SATA interface and relatively slow CPU of SAM. Unfortunately it produces rather large files. A small video of only a few minutes can be already a couple of GB in size and the OS4 ffmpeg port doesn't have large file support.

Just like to add this:)

I managed to fix the interframe encoding in the ZMBV codec. This reduces CPU usage and improves compression when there is not so much changing on the screen.

I just made and uploaded to youtube a video of Duke3D on OS4.1 using the new codec:
