Individual Computers: new product Indivision AGA

[George]

Highgfx support! Yes, finally!
I've loved Highgfx ever since I found it years ago, but the flickering meant it was unusable for any length of time, and this is the first flickerfixer I know of to support it. Thank you, you just made my day  :-)
Just gotta start saving now ready for september  :-D

[Splurge]

Ordered!!  Thanks AmigaKit!  Maybe people will start dumping their old external 16bit sd/ffs.  I could use one for my 2500...

[amigakit]

Thanks for the order :-)

how about fitting in Amiga 4000 T?

This version works only in A1200 because of space.

Jens.............Why are you such a Freakin Genious? huh? explain that to me...............

How in the world can I express my gratitude......the only way is if you let me kiss you!

Thanks man!  you are a one man ARMY!

I wish I lived in your country.....I would help you with anything on the Amiga stuff you are working on FREE of charge.

You make a difference in peoples lives in places of the world you don't know.

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!

Has the Video Toaster question been fully answered? As noted, the video slot enabler on the Z4 busboard precludes the use of anything else that needs to be snapped onto the same chip. Video Toaster support will probably be limited to the A4000/T unless Jens has duplicated the enabler functionality and provided a header for connectivity to the Z4. That would be very cool.

[jiffydos]

I hope that he is talking about Video Toaster because an A4000 version is also in the near future!    That is the only thing holding me back from using my A4000 on a regular basis.  My last 1084s blew up a few months ago and even my NEC Multisync doesn't seem to deal with Toaster screens very well.

Will this work in conjunction with a mediator? I have a mediator and a PPC Blizzard card in my A1200 Towerized Case. I am worried the clearance won't be right. If it is, count me in. I'll head off and pre-order.

I'm not exactly a one-man-army any more. This product has been developed together with Oliver Achten, who is also on the Clone-A project. We both have gained so much knowledge about the Amiga chipsets that we can help each other.

Consider me the "architect" of Indivision AGA: I have done the concept and the basic would-this-be-possible-calculations and after that was positive, I started explaining it to Oliver and made a prototype board. Oliver then implemented the logic, so this is yet another co-production of our brains.

The nice thing is that we're really thinking alike. Plus, we wouldn't be true friends if we couldn't take an argument. The good thing is that we always keep a certain level of professionalism, so even an argument comes out productive. Not sure how to translate this, but "culture of conflict management" or "clear the air culture" might describe it good enough.

Great work, i never got a flickerfixer for my a1200 but now its time. Great product att a very reasonable price I will buy one as soon as ggsdata gets them.

Since the Indivision AGA uses an FPGA, is it possible to add somekind of component video/compositie/S-video encoder into the FPGA?

Composite / S-Video is probably too hard, but should be very easy to do component.. it's just a digital colour space conversion. Several taps and an adder per component.

I even have an example of a RGB to Y'CbCr colourspace converter in VHDL I wrote a long time ago I can make available for free if it is of interest.

Great! Put in my order already!

Nowadays I get an ok laced mode picture out of my LCD but can't wait to get to try out the higher resolutions with VGA cable.

Thank you VERY much, I needed some NEW with flickerfixer for my TWO Amiga's , especially for the desktop, my "gaming machine" .

I'm really happy that someone see that there is some "need" of creating new hardware for "old" Amiga users.

In my opinion good scandoubler was really needed (looking for a prices on ebay).

Now I have one more think to save money for .

I hope it's "compatible" with FastAta?

This is awesome. I have been looking for a scan doubler since I bought my A1200 in 2006 and this one goes beyond by dreams.

The idea to use an FPGA is brilliant. Would it be possible to add chunky pixel screen modes in the future, by using the same technique as used by the Graffiti from Individual Computers (http://www.amiga-hardware.com/showhardware.cgi?HARDID=498)?
