(y) BTV Pro 5.4.1: The 4th menu to the right of the Apple menu on the menubar: "Video Size" That appears to set the size/dimension that the raster will be digitized at. It also resizes the display window to the selected size. There's also a useful item under the Apple menu: Second item...

Yup. I was talking about standard def NTSC ... 720 x 486 or thereabouts ... because that's the particular hardware I have and was referring to ... and because that's what Darth is working with. Yup, seemingly so.

Got the RAID 0 created on the 7600 after setting the drives' mode pages for video with ExpressProTools. Had to break out a copy of Remus Lite v1.4 for the array ... forgot ATTO ExpressProTools doesn't do RAID ... it's a separate product, ExpressRAID which I don't own or have a copy of. lol...

Was pretty sure 1/4 res was about the practical limit ... dimly recall that being the number at the time. Basically 4.608 MB/s for 1/4 res then. Potentially even a stretch for a single (narrow) drive to do without dropping frames somewhere along the way ... considering drive thermal...

(y) I wouldn't doubt that at all. Thinking back on it some more, I don't think it was actually the Targa card that I had when I was laying off to tape frame-by-frame. I believe it was the Nuvista. Yup ... not surprising. Technology marches on at a fairly rapid pace, with "new, mo betta"...

Well ... I would certainly hope so ... :LOL: Yup ... I'm pretty sure he would be familiar with both.

If you're referring to the two cards I posted a image of, the one on the right is a Radius VideoVision PCI. The one on the left is the Radius Telecast PCI card ... it interfaces with the VideoVision card by means of a bridge board - aka the "VideoLink PCI" which connects along the top of the...

Yeah ... I'll bet they do. From what I can recall, any Apple-supplied video I/O from that era wasn't really designed to capture/output high-quality video. It's probably pushing it to capture 1/4 res video (320 x 240) Not real familiar with the Wings card but I would guess you're correct...

(y) Yeah ... I've had issues at various points. Now that I think about it a bit, what hat I ran across was to trash the XPF Log file in the OS 9 Prefs folder in the System Folder AND the XPF app itself and reinstall like you did. Good show !

Maybe try opening the Console when launching XPF ?

I have cured a variety of problems (Software Update or other apps not launching, not running after launch, or outright hanging/freezing, can't get to the login window after boot, can't get to the desktop, no menu bar, etc) by renaming /Library/Caches to /Library/Caches.old forcing the OS...

I've found that this can occur in Tiger as well. Seems too happen after something has been installed or updated and the computer needs to be rebooted. Try launching XPF in Tiger Server again after doing so and let us know what happened. Head back to your OS 9 install by holding down the "C"...

It will be an interesting test series. Yup. Keep us posted.

I suspect that you'll find that the card probably works faster (hardware encoder + fixed bit rate) vs. the QT encoder which if I recall correctly is variable bit rate and should produce smaller file sizes. Although that may depend on the proccessor(s) in the QS ... faster vs slower proc, single...

Good deal. Running QEMU on the QS ?

And the app you’re using to do this is QuickTime Player ? What’s its memory allocation ?

What machine are you trying to do this on ? How much memory is installed in it ... and how much is free ? How large is the DV file ?

(y)

My pleasure ... you're quite welcome. Hope you can get it working.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this or not, but there are two Phillips screws - placed diagonally - under the label. One in the top right corner under the PowerKey name and the other in the lower left corner near the reset button. Carefully peeling back the label will give you access. Unscrew...
