Need Video Toaster Switcher font or install cd
« on: February 04, 2009, 07:01:29 PM »
I have Video Toaster on my A2000 but, it dies with a "Can't obtain Switcher font" message. The font is in the font directory but, I guess something must be wrong with it.

Can anyone send me the switcher font files or failing that the install image ? Perhaps a way to repair the font ?

These directories were just transferred over from another disk where it was working fine. Do I need to do anything special other then copy all the Switcher font files into my new font directory ?

I have no idea actually. It was installed on the hard drive when I got the machine. I ran it a couple times to check out on the other disk but, never noticed the version. The hard drive has since died unfortunately. Its a A2000 running the 3.1 os with the standard toaster not a 4000 if that helps. I would suspect the font files never changed much but, who knows.

The whole toaster directory and the fonts directory on that disk were transferred to a new drive before that one died. If it got corrupted it got corrupted in the transfer.

There must be something strange about that font. Its a common enough problem with it going bad that its even mentioned in the toaster faq.

I don't have any actual plans on using it. I really don't want to spend money for a single font file for something I'll never make actual use of. I just want to show that it works. Besides hasn't it been released as opensource now ? This would mean it is free to copy or whatever. I don't want to pay for opensource software. Can someone point me to the disk or cd images ? or just email me the font file ?
