Yah, we've had the ability to get listings into PG or Atari EPG for quite some considerable time, e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NSwIHoFaAfQ

Tin: Were those live listings on that youtube video, or were they updated automatically by the feed you routed into the emulator? That is the sort of thing that I have never been able to figure out, but I believe would be awesome if I got it working on my setup. But all I have is Comcast and no way to get their listings translated into a format acceptable by WinUAE >< :D

Well, yes. But because I have no extra monitor, I tried to work to do borderless, and it work. I edited that 2 ads in my Sony Vegas than VirtualDUB.

problem is its hard for me to make a video with both commercials and banners at the same time. so i ended up with the commercial repeating along with music.

my next video is going to be using different commercials and possibly text. what i might do instead is use the guides Text ads through Movie maker.

Not sure what you mean, maybe I did not read your post correctly. They were live AND updated automatically by feed into the emulator. I also experimented with feeding the same into a real amiga, but we have the problem there still that we don't know how to set the clock still!

dunno what you can do with any information you're getting out of comcast but basically if you can do something that gets your listings into text format somewhere, you can do whatever you want with them :)

Yes we do! I figured this out a while ago. Simply run the command at the end of this post: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=140&start=10#p1412 and reboot your Amiga. Now you can send K commands to the Amiga just like the Atari :D

There is actually a simpler command - a mode "f" that just updates the config.dat with no reboot - but I don't have that off-hand.

EDIT: Back to normal!!!! Fix via CHKDSK on Windows. :)

To AriX or other users, do you have anything to extract the .adf file on the Mac???
