By the time most of you read this my full report should be online. At the time time of writing I am still busy uploading the larger of the 2 mpeg-1 files. So sit back, relax, grab a beer and read ... oh and the URL's www.benelux-report.webhop.net (http://www.benelux-report.webhop.net)

The lad has a definate way with words :-D
Seriously though, beyond a typo or two, this is a very good review, well ballenced, honest, to the point (unlike this post) and interesting (at least to me personally).
I think however that it is sad that so few people arrived at the show, ahh well, maybe next year eh?
Keep up the good work fuzzbuddy :-P
-
Good report.
Now the bad bit, the DiVX appears to be duff :~/
I ran it through G-Spot and it reports it as an unknown Avi file. What codec did you use?

Hey Ryu!
I can confirm that Ryu and his companion were the really first on the show!
Too bad I was too busy on the show (yes, really) to have a chat with an active A.org poster :-D
Mucho appriciated the support from England!

Same here, file is probably corrupted.

He used the latest version of DivX from www.divx.com (http://www.divx.com)
Oh yeah I advised him on the conversion (as the most knowledgable guy on #amihelp @ the time), so any problems r partly (if not all) my fault.
The codec was the total free one (http://download.divx.com/divx/DivX51Bundle.exe), dunno if a direct link will work...

loved the report, looking forward to seeing the video(s)

Good report Ryu ... :-)
-
Nice, honest review Ryu.
Why would you want to burn a Superbundle though?
There's some very nice software in there - especially for your friend. There's a version of PSA, which normally retails for a coupla hundred quid. I fhe likes Amiga music software, it's one of the most comprehensive programmes there is.
But I don't mean to nitpick, sorry.
Thanks.
-
Great report Ryu! The DivX however also doesn't play on my PeeCee (using Win. Media Payer).
@wilse:
I think that burning remark might have some historical roots in a previous Amiga show involving posters ;-).
-
@odin
Burning a poster is bad,but burning good SW (some of it even usable under AOS)
is just plain stupid, childish .....
-
@Kronos:
Which was probably why it wasn't burnt :-P.
-
i agree with kronos , its simply STUPID to see other people trash stuff that is in perfect shape etc..
-
talking to myself here...
Oh yeah I advised him on the conversion (as the most knowledgable guy on #amihelp @ the time), so any problems r partly (if not all) my fault.
Downloaded the DivX version & it is shafted
I'm downloading the VCD 1 ATM (server is only giving me 22KB/s so I'm getting there slowly...)
If no-one else gets there 1st & Ryu wants me to do it I'll convert the damn thing myself & put it on my server (32KB/s bandwidth only so...) till it gets re-uploaded

@ all the kind comments
Thanks, its people like YOU I did the report for.
@ the way to serious people around here
lighten up, the burning thing was a joke, sheeesh. I have taken a loook through the Superbundle CD's and it seems the only thing a classic amiga can run is the feeble files which I personally cant stand so it is of no use to either me or my friend Dave.
In closeing I did this Report because I wanted to. The report contains things I wanted to put in it, I put my own money into the project (a lot of it), I invested my own time in it. I went to the trouble of finding a hosting service as great as Sixgirls.org. So to all you winging people out there STFU will you and get a life.

@Ryu
have you tried MorphED (aka GoldED) fromthe SDK, and SW-tycoon ?
AFAIR,both should work on 68k.
-
I havent tried MorphED... but then I own GoldED so... Software Tycoon, I seem to recall reading it was morphos only in the readme... but then I had just finished putting the site together and it was 4am so I might look again.
-
Software tycoon , i got it...bought it 1 year ago...played it for like 3mins... too slow to play on classic amiga with powerup card...REALLY SLOW! , feeble files ain that slow .
-
What speed are you people getting? i only get 3-4kB/s using my 1,1mbit cable :\
-

Downloaded the DivX version & it is shafted
Same here. I'm using DivX player for Windows (free version) and it's not a recognized codec!
Time for another big download!
-
Divx file does not work but the mpg1 file does although its 70 meg for the higher quality one. :-)
-
the DivX was corrupted earlier today, I reuploaded it so it should be fine now... I used the latest DivX codec and it played fine using the DivX player that came with the codec. Im a newbie at all these video formats...
-
Nice report ryu. Now you've won the morphos software package, you'll have to get the machine too :-P
[color=FF0000]x303[/color] :-D :-D :-D
-
or I could just sell it to someone.....
I've tried out most if not all of the sotware on it and the only thing i got to work was the feeble files, and I really dont like that game, so its quite useless to me...
-
Hehe so you managed to get there. How cunning! :-D
-
But uhm....ryu.....all Peggy owners can download the superbundle for free....:-)
Anyhoo, what did you exactly use to edit the vid. Was it a digicam? It looked like a Hi8 cam to me. Then again I'm a vidn00b. :-).
