please help these links are to 2mb files - yes that is all the limavady library staff will deem it fit to be uplaoded in one go so it has taken me ten years to put this ont he internet heartfelt thanks to everyone
retro x says it is converting the video
which was actually replayed using windows media player classic to replay at fullscreen resolution of 320x200 - though naturally still with frame rate and colour depth of 16bit untru colour
then recaptured using debut screen cast desktop video capture softwaer - its easier than connecting the tv output back into the tv encoder on the vga - which bluscreens xp - or feeding it into the s-video or composite on the pci digital tv tuner - though the s-video was balck and white using the driver on the cd - the one that has no digital text features or analog teletext subtitles - but hten neither does magioc pro analog tv tuner or prolink pixel view bt878 p+ w/fm - which i think has a firewiare connector on it but luckily the manufacturer wont give me the pinouts!

any how i digress as per…
so here they are nock your selves out
think retro x fixes the screen size at 6912 bytes which sure as heck isnt sams 24576 - and certainly isnt interlaced which would be double this is that right? and youd need even more data for line interrupt palette changes and and other palette changes occuring along each horzontal line would interfere with the processors ability to trasnfer 24kb in over 300tstates using pop and push - youd definitely need the 1mb untilt heres a dma that might be compaitble with either of the two accelerators currently in development - though naturally neither mmanufacturer can communicate with the other using email:
“sprinter2000” , velesoft 14mhz mebbe and 128k ram compatible or pentagon/atm turbo? so far no videos

Yet is possible easy convert ZX128 software for SAM COUPE with 1MB external memory.
