| I just saw an ad in amigaworld for a direct from composite
digitizer for eitgher 300 or 400, 15 b&w frames a second or
ca. 8 color frames/second.
I can't afford it, but it seems interesting.

| DigiView will digitize a frame off a VCR. That's how I made the
Harrier animation.

Can you give me the details about DigiView 3.0.
What's different about it? I have 2.0.

| I second that motion.
The only thing of substance that I have seen is "overscan mode"
(and of course extra-halfbright, which makes no difference to me
and my A1000).

| From what I have heard/read (mine hasn't come in YET) here is a
summary of the changes from DigiView 2.0 to 3.0.....
2 types of overscan resolution "Standard" and "Serious". "Standard
overscan is compatable with most Amiga graphics programs, while
serious overscan is for more professional applications." You figure
it out....
Extra Half-Brite...
Line Art. "This mode automates the usually difficult process of
capturing line art and logos in a single bitplane."
"The documentation for Digi-View 3.0 has been revised to explain
the new features in detail. A tutorial is now included to help
the user learn about digitizing with an expanded section on tips
and hints. The manual will nowhelp users get the best digitized
pictures possible, and the extensive troubleshooting section helps
identify where problems exist and how to fix them. All in all,
Digi-View 3.0 and the manual give you new digitizing power for even
better pictures than before."
Cost: List 199.95 145.00 at the Software Shop
14.95 plus original disk to upgrade

| What is the difference between a digitizer and a frame grabber?
How do they work?
I saw the "LIVE" demo and I was not impressed, sure it can take
live video but with low picture quality, maybee I'm expecting too
mutch. Thinking about it, LIVE is the only ad NOT showing a color
picture of the output of thier device, all the others are showing
a digitized (frame-grabbed?) picture. From all the litterature
and demos that I have seen, the Digi-view seems to be a best buy,
as long as live video is not required.

| Re: .6
A digitizer (in this context) simply converts an image to digitally
encoded form. It is allowed to take two weeks to accomplish this
feat.
A frame grabber is a digitizer can accomplish its work in a small
enough amount of time to work in real time (about a thirtieth of
a second). (Grab an individual frame from the video input.)
I agree with you. The LIVE! pictures I've seen are not impressive.

| I read somewhere that an addition is in the works for DigiView to
have a frame grabber option added. Seeing their delivery time for
upgrades (4 weeks), I wouldn't hold my breath.

| Has anyone seen "grabbed" pictures from the Progressive peripherals
frame grabber? or does anyone own one?
Just curious as I was planning to buy one soon. It looks (from
the ads) to be the a good quality device.
