Sorry. Double post deleted. After hitting the submitt button the first time I received a warning in red lettering above my post that said it had timed out and to copy the content and try again. When I hit submit again I saw it had posted the first on and the second one.

This is on an A1222P which uses enhancer by default when setup from the restore USB stick shipped with it. That means I'm using the sound preferences.

Should I expect that if I set the input slider in sound preferences, to Line In, that I should be able to hear sound if I connect it to the 3.5mm output jack of my cell phone without having to do anything else? If yes, then something isn't working and I'll report a bug.

Just to note, I get no sound if I set it to mic input or mic and line in setting. I do get sound through those ports if I use the AHI Record program.

I don't see the AHI preferences program in the preferences drawer so I can't try using that, unless I install it from somewhere else.

Your inputs are appreciated.

As the title says, I'm trying to enable the the Line In and Mic Input on my A1222P. I took a look at Sound preferences and there are settings there but I didn't see anything that enabled them. I know the lines are working because I can use them with the AHI Record program. Unfortunately, it's a bit cumbersome to use. Is there a preference program or a simple program that will enable them?

I use AExplorer between my X1000 and Wondows10 laptop. One thing I did that sped up the transfers was to change the packet size from 1028 to 4096.

On the Amiga side you can change the tooltype. PACKETSIZE=4096
On the PC side you can change it in properties under the Options tab.

This was a long time ago, so I don't know if the default is still 1028 but it's worth checking. It made a huge difference on my system.

Just did a test. It took 1min and 13 sec to copy a 226MB file.

Yes, you just need to swap it out. Of course you lose the VGA connector.

I used this one in my build and it works well:
Yeston RX550 4GB GDDR5


You can see my full build here.

A fun trip through RogueCraft!
Thanks!

Just picked up one of these for Xmas and it works well with the A1222p and X1000. The trigger buttons are a little stiff, which I'm getting used to, and it uses 2 AA Batteries. I plan to use rechargeable nicads with it, but they will need to be charged separately. The positive side is you don't have to get a new controller if the batteries go bad. In the US it's on sale for 30% off at Amazon right now.

Enjoy watching this each and every year!
Thanks, and Merry Christmas to you and all.

Nice to see the monthly roundup back again. I always enjoy the read and appreciate the effort. Thanks!

Thanks. I'm not a big gamer so it took me a bit to figure out the mapping of the numbers of the buttons to the letters.

I have tower 57 running quite nicely on my A1222+ and I'm using a Logitech dual action joypad. Unfortunately the button configuration is strange. I saw there is a configuration file, and that there is a Logitech entry, but I have no idea how to make the game use that entry. Can anyone help?

Timelines or tile views are nice but, unfortunately our systems are probably to slow to do those kinds of implementations. That's why I just do a list "timeline" (Top to bottom of list) in VideoClipper. Look how long it takes just to generate the start and end frame pictures. Imagine having to do that for every entry in the video list and doing it each time the start time changes. I thought about adding mini pictures in the list but I think it's to slow.

Media Organizer is missing but I just organize my pictures using directories. Might be nice to have one though.

VideoClipper has the clip and stich parts at least partially covered. A lot can also be done with ffmpegGUI. Text can be added to videos with SimpleSub. I'm investigating adding text to individual clips and new transitions to VideoClipper. There is already a settings file in ffmpegGUI to create videos out of an image file, you can add audio as well. This could then be used by VideoClipper.

If you list specific tasks you want to accomplish, I could probably supply ffmpegGUI settings files to accomplish some of it, or let you know how to do it with VideoClipper. They both allow custom commands, so if you know how to use ffmpeg there is a lot more that can be done than the GUI supports. Have you checked out the settings files for ffmpegGUI?

Did you know that ffmpeg/ffmpegGUI can be used with audio files and graphics files?
We also have programs like Rave to manipulate audio files.
What is is you want to do?

Maybe I should start a thread asking what people want to do with their video, audio and graphics files, and provide solutions for how to accomplish it on the Amiga. It would also serve to know what features people might like to see added to current programs, or give ideas on what new programs we might need.

I'm retiring in August of next year and plan to spend more time developing VideoClipper, SimpleSub, ffmpegGUI and maybe even write some new ones. What would you like to see added?

If people are interested in discussing this further, I'll start a new thread. Of course things like port OpenShot or some other big program are not feasible for me, since I'm one person and do all my development on an X1000.

Yes. VideoClipper from OS4Depot

1. Just "Add" your files to be edited.
2. Go to the "Video/Auidio/Files" tab and select the "Draft Low" or "Draft Medium" profile.
3. Click on the "Cut Only" button at the bottom of the screen.
4. I suggest you save the project, which will save the location of the converted files as well. That way you can always recall the project if needed.

All the videos in the list will be converted to the new, lower setting/format.
You can then view each video and set your edit points, effects, etc.
Once that's done you can select your final profile/conversion settings. Then "Cut and Join" the files.

Note the original files will not be touched.
