Will therse cards work on an A1200 with Zorro II bus board ?

The Flyer is a Zorro II card and works in that slot. The Video Toaster 4000 requires a video slot. The Flyer needs a Video Toaster to work. People have used both cards in Amiga 1200s that have been upgraded to have the proper slots.

Did expansion for video slots on the 1200 existed?. I never hear of that, but if it were, then it's nice to have a 1200 expanded that way.


Yes they did exist, in the late 1990's when it became illegal for A4000Ts to be manufactured NewTek bundled Amiga 1200s with a certain busboard in a tower with the Amiga Video Toaster 4000 & Flyer card. The name of the busboard that was used escapes me though.

The Flyer has not been manufactured new since the late 1990's. Our Flyers are limited stock tested used cards with a 30 day warranty from us and a lifetime warranty from the manufacturer.

The manual is available from the link below, the software is open source or can be purchased from NewTek in compiled form.

The Amiga Video Toaster 4000 may or may not work with your flicker fixer. If you buy it and it does not work send it back for a full refund to us. We have not tested it on your configuration so don't know if it works or not. Chances are it will work.

Arrrgggh!  I received my Video Toaster today, got all excited for it, then realized...  I have a Mediator (as said in my initial post) but it's a 4000Di, NOT the 4000D.  The difference of course being that with the Di you can still use the Desktop case, and with the D you would have it sticking out the top.  And of course more importantly, the Di doesn't have a Video slot, the bus board sits where the Video Slot is on the normal Daughter board.

This of course means that 1) I can't use the Video Toaster with either my Radeon (which I could live without the video output, but the memory that it provides is rather nice...) and 2) I'd have no network connectivity....

So unfortunately I'll have to send it back.  Unless some kind sole wants to donate an A4000 to me, and/or one of the A4000D Mediators along with a Tower I could put it into..

Bumper, you have two options. You can return it for a full refund or we can cut you a deal on a A4000 Desktop. To help you out we will let one go for $299. The choice is up to you.
