Toaster stuff

[Bigbronc]

Here are some photos of my toaster systems, I have one built and waiting for the software to install a second one. I hook up a blue screen and tried chroma key over the other camera. It is working I need to play with the light more and aspect ratio stuff. more to follow.

more photos, here is some of the program out monitor. it washed out the white in the face, but I think I need better lights, also the left light is blue, I wanted to see what it would do. So it must ne blue light on white that makes it go clear.

Wow looks good. How much did that setup cost, if you don't mind me asking.

I have about $700 for every thing, just showing is about $300 for cameras blue screen, and Amiga 2000 toaster and kitchen sync. I have another one with a toaster 4000 Kitchen sync and PAR. I am hoping to get the toaster running and make a CF hard drive for the PAR. the A2000 has a CF hard drive. I have a question, on the TBC cards shown here there is a wire jumpered across the cards, where does it hook up to at the end wire shown (2869) I think it goes on the row of pins on the mother board but not sure which. I need to build a mount for the CF card reader too. Only so many hours in the day to Amiga.

I think the jumper on TBCs is serial communication jumper, so you can have one connection for all TBCs, I think, I need to check the manual.

[Bigbronc]

Yeah I think that too, it has a cable that is out side the computer too, that one hooks up to the serial port on the back. The cable goes from card to card. I got the card that way but don't know where the end goes. Do you have a TBC 1-5 manual?

I got it in my hands VT-2000 Personal TBC-II

Here is the pic I made from the manual.

heh. awesome. Toaster Garage.
I really like the use of the tips and tricks book. Very guerilla.
...and I'm sure we'll see those hubcaps in an alien invasion video.

Thanks, yeah Toaster Garage is a good name. The invasion of the Amiga fighting the takeover of the namesake Amiga. Born of 8 bit technology, this little computer took over my mind and made me buy parts on e-bay non stop until he was complete. Having friended my lawn mower and vintage Mustang hub caps, he set out on this quest of mind control to fulfill his needs. I am helpless to resist his commands. Please, I need help; it will not stop. Tell me the wire diagrams, I need them; it sooths the beast for just a little time, but then back to the e-bay quest. The thing tricked me into convincing my wife to buy me parts. I am telling you; I need help.:hammer:

My set up is in the Amiga Dungeon. Not quite the basement, but can get damn cold down on the bottom floor. Recently had a pellet stove installed, not so bad in the winter now.

Can relate there. I have a device for the C=64 that is a slow scan digitizer, hooks up to  a video camera and captures low res grey scale image. That was then... In my collection are various image capture devices used with Amigas up to the current VT/Flyer system.

heh, if it starts telling you to, uhhmmm, to do something about the wife. Listen carefully. It knows what it's talking about...

     Was that ComputerEyes, VideoByte, or another one?

     What are those various devices?

I had to tear all my stuff down, the van had to go into the shop, so all the amps and gear had to go in the toaster garage. but tuesday the toaster garage is back, that is if the van is fixed then.
 
 
Does any one know where the toaster splash screen is stored. It is on DV1 when I start the toaster then it goes away. can DV1 and DV2 have images stored as a file and loaded to that spot? How do you save images made on the toaster, when I click the floppy drive icon it takes me to a screen to save stuff, with DFO, DH0 icons but it will not let me name it of save it.
