- Short: FrameMachine drivers, TV on WB, Videos and more...
- Author: stefan.robl@tirnet.de (Stefan Robl)

- Version: 1.10
- Type: hard/drivr
-
-
- Description
- -----------
- FMdriver is a new driver system for the FrameMachine
- video-card from electronic-design.
- It is a completely rewritten driver and it features
- the fastest possible access-speed to the hardware.
-
- It is fast enough to watch television on the Workbench
- (GFX-Board and PPC recommended!)
-
- The driver and the programs are included as 68k and
- PPC-versions to provide optimum performance.
-
- The FMdriver archive contains several programs:
-
- FMBaseConfig -- A config-program which allows the easy
- configuration of the Prism24-display and
- digi-sizes.
-
- FMTV -- This program allows you to use the
- FrameMachine for watching television on the
- WB (!!).
- It also allows to configure the Prism24 so that
- you can watch TV over it.
- You additionally have the option to make
- snapshots from the video and save it as image
- to disk.
-
- FMInit -- A small tool which allows to initialize the
- FrameMachine with user-definable settings.
- It is very useful to copy this tool into
- the WBStartup drawer to auto-init the FM
- on boot. As alternative, you can also use FMInit
- from Shell.
-
- FMRecorder -- Record small movies directly to your harddrives!
- This program is also able to playback the recorded
- anims and also allows to convert them into single
- images.
-
- FMRecord -- This shell-program allows to record FMMovie anims
- directly to harddisk (like FMRecorder does).
-
- FMRecordDec -- This shell-program is a converter from the FMMovie
- file format into single images (same funtionality
- as FMRecorder, but useful for script-processing).
-
- FMGrab -- A small shell-program which allows to grab images
- and save them to file.
-
