Does anyone know a good place to find info on:

12" NuBus Frame Buffer Card #060-000321-000 REV B5
Frame Buffer I/O Daughtercard Card attached
mini centronics connector (like W-SCSI2) on daughtercard backplane
both copyright 1990 DIGITAL F/X

a friend of mine just handed off s LOAD of NuBus card and periperals to me this morning, but this one looks interesting, he said he thinks he found it in a system on the street.

it's gonna take a while to catalogue all these goodies!

Does anybody have the docs for the:

Radius VideoVision Studio NuBus Card?

mostly i'm curious about the function of the interboard (?) cable connector (approx. 100 pins) on the upgrade daughtercard. i'm thinking hardware MPEG or DSP card support, dunno. disks i have, but i haven't found a manual yet!

NEW TOY!!!! (with breakout box!)

it seems to have Composite and S-Video connectors selectable via jumper. i think there's only one more vidcap card in this batch, but i'm still looking!

hey ~coxy, can you email me the drivers you mentioned that you found for this baby:

MASS MICRO SYSTEMS QUICKIMAGE 24
http://users.creative.net.au/~mla/nubus_city/video.jpg

have you tested yours yet? if there is a link to the downloadable drivers that'd be better.

someday i'm gonna have to break down and try this hotline stuff, huh?

Like you said, a vidcap card (framegrabs, not full motion like a Spigot, if I recall correctly).

Seems like I saw drivers for it at the Mac Driver Museum.

Bingo! that was quick! seems like a SLOW framegrabber, fast mode is 6 seconds!?!?! loved this part of the README:

"COMING SOON - HyperCard interface"

I haven't tested it yet, because the drivers that I have only do NTSC and S-Video. Still, that's not a problem for you, is it?

If memory serves, there were versions of the ComputerEyes for many of the major platforms of the day, so one could probably find an ISA card and even an Apple II card if one looked hard enough. I seem to recall ads for them in the back of Byte and other magazines, usually bundled with a CCTV camera on a tripod.

Add an ImageWriter with correct ribbon/paper and a heat press and you would have everything you'd need to open a T-shirt kiosk at the mall, circa 1990.
