I currently use a Lucent Wavelan Silver in my Lombard 400 in OS9 and OSX (and OS7.6.1 on my PB 190). It works in OS9 fine with drivers found on the net. With OSX you either have …

the sonnet aria extreme does not work in os 9. The system recognizes that it is there, but does not see it as a wireless card. The sonnet card has a broadcom chipset too.

Right, I will try new software before I try new hardware. There is no point in putting in additional hardware in the beige. I might as well put it in the WGS 9650.

The higher end cards sync perfectly (Targa 2000 for example) as long as you use decent software. Try Premiere 5 on what you have before you go an get new hardware.

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…

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.

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…

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…

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…

No, its my Mac OS 9 machine.

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.

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…

Thanks guys I reseated the ram, the av card, and reinstalled mac is 9 (with my g4s radeon) and updated it to 9.2.2. Then I took out the gpu and the onboard video works great!!! :-…

The Beige series should have 2MB of VRAM built in and a slot for 4MB more to get to 6MB total. I don't think video works at all if the built in 2mb is bad, all the extra RAM does i…

beige G3 I had would not lite up the screen(VGA) with out the 4mb stick under OS9 Click to expand... And only under OS 9? Weird. If it was under both I would say it was a fau…

Well if it bongs, the AV/PERCH card is installed correctly. The AV card is the one that has the sound in/out ports on it, that is installed in a black slot (PERCH) next to the PCI …

Lets see im getting back to working on it and yes it does bong. I have no idea what the AV card is or what a PERCH socket is guys

The very first beige G3 I had would not lite up the screen(VGA) with out the 4mb stick under OS9. Honest...I had to buy one to get the machine to work.

Doesn't matter - there's 2MB onboard even without the optional 4MB DIMM

Did someone take out the memory simm,its pugs in right in front of the ZIF.

Make sure the AV card is seated properly in the PERCH socket. It often seems like it is when it isn't. Did you get a startup chime?
