Title: Videoediting with an AmigaOne
Post by: Clooned on January 21, 2003, 06:42:40 PM
I have a miniDV camcorder and I want to edit video with my future
AmigaOne.

I think there are 2 options: use MOL and all the native MAC utilities
or compile all those Linux aplications ( Kino, Cinelerra ) in PPC.

Do you agree?

Thank you and sorry for my bad English.

You might ask yourself:
are there any working firewire devices for the A1?

The peg has it built in, but i don't know about the A1.
ask eyetech if they plan to make some drivers for some firewire PCI card.

You have 2 real &  2 Maybe options :)

1. As you suggested run a Mac Emu & use
    Final Cut Pro, This is a very professional solution.

2. Run Linux based editing software
    LINK:  http://www.nmt.edu/~kscott/video/

3. Run MostionStudio "IF" an A1 version is released.
    LINK: http://www.titan-computer.com/motionstudio/index.html

4. "IF" Ami.Inc allow MorphOS on your A1.
     Then run MotionStudio Morph Version on it.

You can pickup cheap Mac systems but it's not an A1.

The OS flexibility will be the killer feature of the A1.

We just need to run Morph  on it legally.
Same applies to OS4 on the Pegosis.

For those that want too, it's about choice.
I run Win98, NT4, W2K, Linux, BeOs & Qnx.
On my PC Mobo just need a legal Amithon.

I like that phrase.  I would like to run AOS4 and MOS on the same system, along with linux and macOS.

I am running Amithlon.  I bought it from a respected dealer a while back, who assured me that his copies were all from before the "todo".  

At this point, if you wan't Amithlon--the legality between Amiga-Haage-Bernie should be a consideration.  If you feel bad about Amithlon and the legal situation, you should immediatly delete all copies of Windows (any and all versions) everywhere you find Windows, as Windows has more stolen code in it than all other OS's combined.

Further, you should also destroy all intel X86 based chips, because they are all based on stolen Zylog IP.  Don't stop there!  Go over to your Amiga1200 and destroy ARexx.  The "speech.device" you copied from your A500--destroy that too.  

Heck, the office chair I am sitting on is probably made with stolen IP from somewhere!

The latest Linux Kernel supports FirerWire and PCI cards are very
cheap now!

Did anyone copyright "English" as a language.

This post  may be an IP infringment.

I understood Arexx was a legal include.

But the whole GUI concept was stolen from Zerox.
Yet Apple tryed to claim infringment from M$.

Did you know the ExOr cursor
 (a cursor that swaps the text & background colur).
Is a vaid IP & a royalty has to be paid when ever implemented in a system.

This was one of the finacial problems that faced C=.

Scary that something like this is patentable.

Well, I, for one am longing to move my NLE card over to A1 or Peggy.

I thought Intel was the inventor of the first microprocessor i.e. Intel 400x series.

Why? I thought that was licensed from IBM’s REXX technologies.

The "speech.device" you copied from your A500--destroy that too.

Are you assuming that person did that action?  

What happen if I own both WB1.3.2 and WB3.1 diskettes? I’m sure WB1.3 disk would still run on Kickstart 3.1 Amiga boxes.

I would like an official stamp of approval from AInc in that case.  Just like Amiga Forever CD.

At least MS signs a license for desired product. An example from Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.

There is also VHI-Studio (http://www.vhistudio.com), but as has been said, OS4 needs Firewire drivers first.

Sort of on topic.

This is a really useful site for those who haven't seen it.

Codec Corner (http://www.codeccorner.com)

There are some links on there for the Amiga version of DivX.

What may be useful in the future is a "GSpot" type application for the Amiga.  Go to tips/viewers and 4 ways to find codec...

It basically identifies the codec used.

If there were drivers and support for an all in wonder card or the Audiology with fire wire ( I think would be better ).

 I have been looking at the VT2 as of late, having truble with the $9,000+ price tag. Although compared  with cost  of equipment even 5 years ago it's a steal. We can always hope there will be a toaster for the A1. :-)

 Possibly a Matrox RTX100 for the A1. Time will tell.
