MP3@64 in amiga 1200 native clock port with optional hombrew cable\extender

[adonay]

Hi after research around the forums i see that this idea has been explored before although i rember the conclution was based on information found on vesalia homepage can not be done... I checked amigakit and it states as following:

Amiga compatiblity is supported through third-party device driver written by Chris Hodges which can be downloaded here. Your Amiga will require a compatible clockport to connect the MP3@64 hardware:

After further study in the manual it does not say can not work on amiga 1200 clockport it rather seems to be a mechanical problem that can be fixed quite easy wit a cable converter of the sort...

Have anyone tried this ? I would gues the clockport extender from elbox "  ---Clock Port Riser "will do just fine as it gives you 6mm more over surface and may even use two if not suficcient ... Anyone here tried it ? Anyyone can try it ... would be exelent for my 1200

ok i just checked the readme in Chris Hodges Amiga driver for the MP3@64 and seems he typed down the 1200 clock port as compatible so will give it a go and order one  :-D

Some days ago i Just pmailed Amigakit, He said that no one Knows it work on the native clockport. But i think because all of the clockport is a remake of the original, the common sense saying it must be working. The problem only the tiny space. So riser or extender cable is the solution.
