@Piru

I really respect the hard work you have put into MorphOS. One quick question though, have you ever used the Amiga Video Toaster Flyer? I agree porting the code may be hard but it was and still is a great system for what it is. A classic way to edit and do video switching on AmigaOS. If you ever get a chance use one, you might be surprised how cool it is and it sold a ton of Amiga's in the USA and kept NewTek alive. Thanks for your perspective on this. Your a great programmer and your opinion, whether people like it or not has value.

@Piru

I never said it matched today's solutions, it is what it is. The only way to do video switching and non-linear video editing on a Amiga unless you have a Draco. Draco is cool too but it does not do real-time effects and switching. If you price video switchers you will find they are quite costly.

[Pyromania]

You are in fact incorrect. I dropped no hint anywhere. DiscreetFX does not comment on rumors and speculation.

[Pyromania]

Actually you have commented on rumors you've wished to debunk quite a bit.  I'm confused why you would not just debunk this one if untrue as well?

Here is what I took as a hint:

You are the only one I see mentioning Amiga.org at that link.

I have been assigned the task of Site Admin so I will work hard to earn everyone's trust. I can understand how some can get jaded in this community. It's been  a long road to travel since Commodore's death in 1994. We have a great moderation team in place and Amiga.org has a great legacy that must be preserved for the Amiga community and it's offshoots. Please give us a chance to do the best we can and prove ourselves. There are also other great Amiga sites, and it takes a team of sites to rebuild this exciting community.

[Pyromania]

Yes, it does. The man owns the site, and with it, access to personal information. I'd like to know who has access to that, and because I don't, I kindly request to delete my account and all it's accompanied personal data. Please do so before the end of the week. I may re-register if I like the new owner.

goodbye and thanks for all the fish,
Jens

Hi Jens

Please stay, as the Site Admin I can assure you that everyone's personal information on  Amiga.org is secure. All members privacy is respected and kept safe. If you still want your account removed I will respect that request and do it at the end of the week.

[Pyromania]

The best thing about Amiga.org is it's community of members, they are awesome. Great moderation team is already in place too.

@Schoenfeld

My father almost died and just had open heart surgery and I am out of town because of that. I have done little if anything on Amiga.org due to the serious unexpected heath complications my father had.

[Pyromania]

I sincerely hope he's doing better.  Best hopes for a speedy recovery.

Wayne

Thanx for the very kind words Wayne, it is most appreciated. He will be in the hospital for a long time so we take it day by day. He survived the difficult surgery and is slowly getting better.

@Bill P.,  I hope your Father recovers quickly and fully.

Thanx for the kind words amigadave. He might get out of ICU on Sunday so we are hopeful that will happen.
