Video Capture on a Beige G3 — #6

If you have a spare PCI slot, there are loads of cheapish PCI OS 9 only capture cards floating round on evilbay. That would give you both better resolution and hopefully synchroni…

my first Newton:help!! — #3

You'll need the adapter dongle that originally came with the 2100 if you want to do cabled transfers. Personally I'd avoid all that malarky and download NCX. WiFi transfers are m…

Video Capture on a Beige G3 — #5

Try normal and none for the heck of it. If you have quicktime pro on that machine, use no compression and have quicktime compress into a smaller tasty package.

Video Capture on a Beige G3 — #4

I have compression set to highest, the only options are highest, normal, or none. I did not see anything to set the FPS, where would that be in Apple Video Player? Is there no wa…

Video Capture on a Beige G3 — #3

Built in video isn't synced to sound via TBC like dedicated boards have (or use external inputs) so sound tend to go out of sync with longer captures. You also might have issues wi…

Might have to do with your compression, what are you options for compressing? The more compression, the more processor power it will take to finish. But it might have to do with th…

Hi guys. With all the talk about archiving old VHS tapes, I decided to set up a machine dedicated to this task. I chose my beige G3 MT, because I have the personality card with the…

Well, Got some more parts today. (DVD Drive, RAM, VRAM, and USB 2.0 card) Unfortunately the USB 2.0 card isn't compatible with the beige models. It wouldn't even chime at startup. …

Lombard processor upgrade — #1

I am running OS X on my PB G3 Lombard and it needs a G4. I know there are upgrades for it out there, but I can't find one for the life of me that wouldn't require a government bai…

G3 300 MHz Vs. G4 500MHz — #4

G3's in the 450 range are very cheap. I would buy a used g3 1Ghz before I invested the same amount of money into a g4-500. All in all I wouldn't bother with anything over a g3-450…

B&W G3 case fan + PSU fan replacement? — #2

I think it would make more sense to get a new 120mm fan instead, though I've read the B&W G3 uses a 2-pin connector not the normal 3 pin. Click to expand... Two pin con…

G3 300 MHz Vs. G4 500MHz — #2

Are you using OS X? If so then the G4 500 will spank the G3 round the block and back. Whether it's worth the money or not is up to you.

G3 300 MHz Vs. G4 500MHz — #1

Ideally I would like a 1GHz G4 upgrade for my B&W G3, but I can't really afford that. So, the next best thing, a 500MHz G4...these go a lot cheaper than the 1GHz for obviou…
