A friend of mine (who has no access to this newsgroup) is using
the ActionMedia II board for displaying both motion video and
images converted from tif format.

He faces some problems when he tries to display his AVS files
which were converted from tif images. Not only are many fine
details of the original image missing (which he can bear),
saturated color patches in the image tend to bleed (smudge?
smear?) to surrounding areas. This is worst when there are
saturated green or red patches. Furthermore, slanted lines in
the original images become jagged after the conversion.

We are wondering whether all these are due to the conversion
program he is using or is it only natural for the ActionMedia II
board to behave in this way (since it is a motion video board)?
Has anybody on the net experienced similar problems with this
board? Are there remedies? Are there any other PD conversion
utils available (BMP->AVS, TIF->AVS, JPEG->AVS)?

many thanks
