Prevue Guide Forums

Hi AriX, Followed you here after our chat on Youtube. For extracting the font to TTF, try Typesmith on your amiga emulator. I think the version from AFCD 3 will do it. You can get the CD from EAB file server (see http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=43633) directory Magazine Cover Disks and CDs/CD...

Here are pictures of the floppy disk itself:




More to come.

Unfortunately since the disk seemed to auto-update itself, I mostly only have TV Guide-related resources. Here are a couple of the things I've been able to extract from the disk so far: http://ariweinstein.com/prevue/TVGBANNR.UV.png The banner that rolled around at the end of the listings cycle. htt...

Thanks to Jeff of amiga.org, I now have an ADF format image of the final Prevue/TV Guide Amiga software. Everything on here is in bizarre formats, but I have succeeded at extracting some of it. This image includes (!) the "PrevueC" font (in the obscure Amiga bitmap font format), which is l...

Oh lol, but anyway now i'm trying to find out what the font was on the blue guide. I've posted on various font id sites so i'm just waiting for responses. I also know somebody who's willing to develop a font for a few buck$, and I'd be willing to pay if nobody can identify it. I'll check back here ...

I've been wondering whats the difference between familyvue and prevue family? Did familyvue's name just change to prevue family in 98 or are they separate programs? I believe when Prevue overhauled their programming in 1998, they renamed FamilyVue to Prevue Family. However, it happened at a differe...

Here's the article: http://www.mediapost.com/publications/?fa=Articles.showArticle&art_aid=103339 And sorry for being off topic but the people at "whatthefont" aren't the best at identifying everything (at least for me lol). I've made 5 cases there (including the one you commented on)...

lol, it's not my birthday, this forum is stupid, I'm still 15
Anyway, maybe it would be better, I'll take a look and see if I can do a side-by-side comparison.

I had read that Lionsgate was getting rid of the EPG, but I hadn't heard that they were changing the name. Can you link to this article please? Anyway, it's too bad, I assume someone will develop a replacement at some point, and basic cable providers will have to adopt something else, but this is no...

Thanks for the font, although the font I'm using in my latest revision is STAR 4, which seemed to go better with Prevue than the STAR 3000 font. I'll take another look though.
