Re: More audio to video



Thanks to all of you that have provided info about audio to video programs.
I finally got the Imagine demo program to work by the simple expedient of
downloading it on my Mac, since it's a Mac program.  The website doesn't
tell you that, ha ha.  However, even now that it sort of works on my Mac, I
found that the program complains all the time about insufficient memory,
though my g3 has 64 MB.  Also the program crashes a lot and moreover, the
PDF file for the manual is unreadable.  Has anyone else had these problems
with Imagine?  I recall a while back someone mentioning that they used a G3
notebook with Imagine.  How do you get external video into a notebook?  Is
there some sort of video card that can be installed in a notebook?  Do g3
notebooks have a PCI slot?
I tried the Bomb program on my PC and it stalls and crashes the computer
after the welcome screen comes up.  Don't Win32 programs work in a 
Windows95
computer?  Did I download the wrong program?  I didn't see any others on 
the
Bomb site that seemed more appropriate for Windows95.  I downloaded the Mac
version and it works incredibly well.  It's absolutely stunning.  I think
it's even better than the amazing Cthugha program.  I've actually gotten 
the
Cthugha program to work fine on Mac and PC.  However, the Mac version looks
vastly better, even though the implementation is not nearly as well
developed as the PC version.  All in all, in spite of all the problems,
these audio to video tools represent an incredible gold mine of
possibilites.  Now I only need to come up with the big bucks for a G3
notebook and an LCD projection system to use on stage.
