3 Amiga TV commercials from 1989 on my site
Hey all! I happened to find these three Amiga TV ads on an old tape I recorded
off MTV in 1989, and scanned them off for others to see at my site (since we
know how amazing it is to see any kind of Amiga ad ;) They're *actually* very
good commercials, and now that I see them again, I remember they used to get
played so much I was sick of them.
The only problem is that right now I have them encoded as RealMedia (.rm)
files, and I'm not sure if there is anything that will allow this to be viewed
on an actual Amiga itself. (I've never really viewed video, mpegs, etc. on my
Amiga so I'm not sure what the best file format for an Amiga would be in that
sense, but if anyone knows then tell me and I can try to convert the sequences.
Or if anyone else wants to convert them that would be cool too! My original
computer scans are .avi files which I converted to RealMedia for the site.)
Also, there are chronological stills from two of the commercials on the site,
and accompanying audio-only .wav files, so if you're having trouble with the
video you can at least listen to two of the commercials and follow along with
the still pictures.
Hope everyone enjoys this. (These are US commercials by the way.) They are
