I want to thank everyone who joined me in tonight's IRC session. It was great to see some new faces and old friends. I especially want to thank Mr. Harv Laser, longtime Amiga alumni, for peeking in and saying hello. I plan on having yet another Scala IRC session. Same Scala time, same Scala channel. Next week, March 28th, at 5 pm EST (2200 GMT) till 7 pm EST (0000 GMT). Join us if you have questions about the Amiga products, PC products or any other legal distractions. :) Regards, John Chang ____ John Chang, Technical Support Manager, Scala, Inc.

Scala Crashes Now with Cybervision 64

I just got my CV64 and set it all up. Needed to do some presentations
for work, so I loaded up Scala and Crash, crash, crash. I am not happy. I
have MM300 and an A4000. I am stuck using it on my 1200. Any ideas?
--John J. Maver, Jr.
Any product for the A4000 like the comp out on A1200?

I have to move all my scala scripts after I create them to my a1200,
so that I can dump them to video through the composite out. Is there any way
to do this on the 4000? I don't want to spend mega bucks here, just make my
life simpler. Any ideas?

None of our Scala MultiMedia products support any of the available RTG/EGS cards, including the CV64. You can use Scala with your Amiga 4000, you'll just have to disable the drivers from hooking into the Amiga OS and do all work from the Amiga's 23-pin video port.

I regret that I don't have any contact information, but I'm sure your favorite Amiga vendor may have it. Also, you may find a used SuperGen genlock in the comp.sys.amiga.marketplace newsgroup at a bargain price. It is much, much better solution than any decoder. Plus Scala has an EX for the SuperGen.

Does that mean that it is not worth upgrading to mm400? I was
thinking about it so that it would work.
Any plans to add support for cybergfx?
Could you please elaborate more on how to use it on my A4000?

There are a number of features in MM400 that is worth the $49 USD ugrade price. Visit our Website at http://www.scala.com for more information on MM400. >Any plans to add support for cybergfx? Not in the existing Scala Amiga products. The low-level design of our existing software code is highly optimized and therefore, too inflexible to incorporate RTG/EGS boards. What would be ideal, is to port our new BackBone(tm) software technology, which is a platform independent, binary independent, modular and scalable environment, back to the Amiga. The question is, which Amiga platform? ECS/AGA or Power Amiga? I don't have a clear answer for you. There are still some things that Amiga Technology and Scala have to work out. >Could you please elaborate more on how to use it on my A4000? What is there to elaborate on? Simply disable the Cybergrafx drivers and use the standard 23-pin video port for output. Again our software products only supports the ECS/AGA chipset. In other words, use our product as if the Cybergrafx board was not installed. If your final output is video, then you'll need a RGB to Composite Encoder or a Genlock.

(A4000/040 CV 4Mb) I just run it on a TV that's hooked up to my Amiga output :) You can of course use a Multiscan monitor which syncs to 15 khz but that is something which I lack... (Just sold it to be exact) If you use a monitor which syncs to 15 kHz as your main monitor, you do not have a problem. -- ------------------------- -------------------------- | Kjell Gudim | EMail : kjgudim@sn.no | Using Thor v2.22 #1137| | LoungeBar Development | IRC : Kjellvis | "Make bits not war!" | ------------------------- --------------------------

You can also use a scandoubler, e.g. DblScan 4000, to get your non-multisync
monitor view 15kHz screenmodes.
