Individual products that are out of stock like Indivision OCS/ECS, will be available in the near future???
-
Well, there are not that many other threads in this part of the forum. I wrote something about that just yesterday.
-
Hi there i need to know the ECS works in A500 or just A500+?
Thanks in advance
Cheers!
-
Isn't the product description clear about that? It works in all OCS and ECS-Amigs, except the NTSC/Piggy-back version of the A1000. So yes, all A500 models are included.
-
hello Jens,
Will the indivision for A1000 be available again?
Thanks

I'm already working on a follow-up version to Indivision ECS V3. Friday's poll in Twitter/X asked if the Live config feature should be ported from Indivision AGA MK3 to a new ECS version: https://twitter.com/schoenfeld…tatus/1715392636050083852
Not a real competition between the options, I know, as the general usability increases by a lot if you have live config. Just wanted to point everyone to the advertisement I've posted there

I think the priority should be to create an anti-ghosting mod for ECS v2.
In ECS v3 if there was to be any fix, the only sensible one is to introduce HDMI along with audio (as there is MK3 for AGA).
-
Live config would be wonderful! It would also be extremely convenient to allow for the display of Flash Floppy OSD, which is more viable for the Amiga 500.
Oh and try to better match colors of a 1084 monitor display.
Thanks! -

That's not off the table, but deeply buried in a huge pile of work that I need to do in order to keep the lights on here. We're *very* short on labour force right now, with half of my employees on sick leave.
the only sensible one is to introduce HDMI
I have already decided against that, for four reasons:
1) price. My goal is to keep the "hobby Amiga" as affordable as possible, and adding HDMI is a major bump in the bill of materials.
2) power consumption/heat: I'd like to avoid such a heat-source especially in an A600, where space is very congested and you have hardly any chance to dissipate the heat generated by the HDMI encoder
3) there are WAY more VGA monitors that are compatible with 50Hz and V-Sync than there are DVI/HDMI monitors that can do the same. In continuation of my first point, these 50Hz/VSync compatible monitors are a lot cheaper than any HDMI monitor you can buy, and they often have the better aspect ratio for an Amiga (4:3 instead of 16:9).
4) size: With a HDMI encoder, the circuit board will become larger, and it won't fit some target computers any more. I really don't want to have even more versions of flicker fixers.
It would also be extremely convenient to allow for the display of Flash Floppy OSD, which is more viable for the Amiga 500.
We won't be able to take in the same OSD as FlashFloppy is "inserting" into the RGB signals of an Amiga, but we may be able to add an interface for using the OSD that is in the flicker fixer already. If we're adding live config (which is very likely), we will need a similar CIA adapter as we are using on Indivision AGA MK3. We could add a connector there for a 3.3V (5V tolerant) serial interface, where an MCU could send OSD data at a fixed baud rate. We'd need contact to the authors of FlashFloppy, or some specification about the requried size (number of lines and chars/line).
Oh and try to better match colors of a 1084 monitor display.
I believe we've discussed this before: CRT monitors have a different colour space in the first place, and flat screens can't match the "black" that CRTs have. However, we will use a larger FPGA on the new version of Indivision ECS, so we may have the possibility to output a non-linear curve on each colour component. This is not a promise, though; I have no idea how much space we'll really have left in the FPGA after adding what we're already discussing internally!

Would be nice with some kind of small circuit we could solder on the TC64V2s aswell to get rid of the ghosting.

It will involve de-soldering some SMD components before such a PCB can be applied.Still need to find a contractor who can do SMD assembly and another miling run after components have been soldered. Solder spots on such a mod-PCB needs to have castellated holes at the edge, and this one is near-impossible to assemble if that milling process is done before component assembly.
Again, not forgotten, but also impossible to bump in terms of priority right now.

If you need someone to test with the Indivision ECS v2 (soldering and various such) I'd be happy to help
-
Do you know when ECS Indivision, will be available again?
-
Indivision ECS V4 will go into sample production in December, and it'll be back in stock in Q1/2024.
Jens
-
when the new indivision ECS becomes available again, will it work with the rejuvenator board?
-
If you can fit it, it will work.
Jens
-
will pre-orders be open soon for ECS indivision? I’m anxious and impatient 😀
-
Won't take long. We actually removed a few roadblocks thiese past few days to go full steam ahead on development. Meanwhile, some production/assembly kinks have been sorted out, so everything running smoothly now.

For indivision ECSV4 is the Paula adapter absolutely necessary on a 1000 with rejuvenator- is it because signals needed don’t exist on Denise. I have the adapter, but it would fit better ( cable length to U6p )if I just plug it into the Denise socket. Thanks!
