Title: DVI/HDMI gfx output in Classic Amiga
Post by: DJS on November 18, 2009, 02:32:22 AM

Elbox Computer is pleased to announce the release of the new version of the Radeon driver with support for DVI outputs of the gfx cards based on the ATI Radeon 9200/9250 chipsets.

From now on, you can connect your Mediator-equipped Amiga to any HDTV LCD or PDP flat panel via a HDMI link. All you need is a Radeon gfx card (http://eu-shop.elbox.com/cgibin/shop?info=707R925) card with DVI output and a DVI to HDMI adapter (http://eu-shop.elbox.com/cgibin/shop?info=588DVI).


Availability

The Radeon Mediator driver will be available free of charge for all Mediator Multimedia CD registered users in the upcoming 1.32 update.

The comprehensive list of supported Radeon cards is available at the Mediator Driver Guide (http://elbox.com/mediator_driver_guide.html).

according to what elbox told me there will be no 3d support except for when third party will implement it.

Hardly surprising, considering Elbox has never created any 3d drivers.

Also the only party legally allowed to change warp3d is otherwise occupied, so don't hold your breath.
