I just did a 720p movie trailer from apple and my Dual G4 with 1GB of ram is chugging, it's dropping frames all over the place. Quicktime says between 4 and 8 frames per second.

Ebay seller macmetex seems to have a ready supply of VGA to 3, 4 and 5 BNC cables for cheap.

Does the enhanced IIe work normally otherwise? Have you tried any other expansion cards in it?

I have an Apple IIe enhanced as well as a normal IIe. The duper serial card works in the normal IIe, when I use ADTpro I type: ]IN#2 (in card slot 2) ] (ctrl -A) and I get to t…

Just a note to say that my earlier references to "DisplayConverterX" are incorrect. The correct tool is DisplayConfigX. The memory isn't what it once was... Get it here: http://…

Your project hasn't been shot with a poisoned arrow just yet... For my TV, I have two possible setups. The first connection is VGA which I use when I connect an iBook. My TV com…

Thanks for the comments & HIYA, ~Coxy! ;D I've found a couple of very interesting gizmos if a pure cable based solution isn't practical. :b&w: VGA to HDMI Analo…

ADC breaks out to DVI pretty cheaply, because it carries the same video signal and the adaptor just ignores the extra power/sound/usb pins. (does ADC actually have sound?) Once you…

Yeah but thats not video playing on screen.... Click to expand... [snip] For the record, playback of MPEG-4 video (roughly 480i) on my dual 533 MHz G4 (a Digital Audio) with a…

Yeah but thats not video playing on screen.... Click to expand... :?: Huh? Obviously one shouldn't expect to play 1080p video on any G4, nevermind a 466MHz one with a Rage …

If you keep your eyes open on eBay, you can find an AGP GeForce4 MX for $35 to $50. Click to expand... Ok, I've only got one more hoop to jump thru to have a PayPal account set…

The other technology in OS X that relates to video acceleration you might hear about these days is Core Image. There isn't much value in pursuing a video card that will support Co…

No, the Rage 128 can't drive two monitors simultaneously. Plus, it doesn't support Quartz Extreme (the acceleration you mentioned earlier). Pretty much anything else will do X (a…

Dual displays is weird. For instance I have a GeForce 3 64MB that came with my DA back in the day, it has SVGA and ADC outs but will only drive one at a time. As alk mentioned th…

I don't think so, the GeForce2MX came out a year or two later I believe and it didn't even do that. So I'm not entirely sure the 128 even could.

The stock video card in a Digital Audio is a Rage 128 which should have a VGA port and an ADC port. If you have an ADC->DVI adapter (such as the one made by Belkin) and a D…

Actually the term is Response Time, the time it takes for the molecules behind the RGB filter to align for any given color combination. Typically its around 5-15 milliseconds. Th…

I did not look at them that closely but that is a definite possibility. Either way, it was a benefit since the two ram chips originally in the Lombard were not suitable for the un…

Wallstreet and Lombard both have 66MHz system busses and can use PC66 SO-DIMMs. If someone went the cheap route on the Wallstreet and only used bare-minimum spec PC66 SDRAM (yes, …

Thanks for all the suggestions, gang. All I'm trying to do is find new video card that'll support some whatchamacallit acceleration (I can't remember :I ) on some version of OSX …

I reseated the CPU to no go. I took the RAM out and put it into my Lombard along with a new 20GB HD, instant boot. Works great. I installed the old Lombard RAM which apparently …
