Well since I now have access to a capture card, I felt like I
should test it out.  And I said to myself, "What should I record?"
Well, since I didn't want to offend too many commercial interests
I decided against one of my AnimEigo LDs (I wonder how the BGC CD-ROM
will look though...).  But then I remembered my anime PC-Engine games.
Everybody seems to have seen the 3rd game (I might grab some things
from that later if somebody in the world shows an interest <hint> <hint>),
but I think a lot fewer have seen the 2nd one (the digital comic one).

So, I brought out the old thing, plugged it in, and digitized the
opening for you.  Since it is a CD-ROM system (with very limited
buffer memory), the animation isn't spectactular, but with the
animation compression setting in QT, it works beautifully!  I was
amazed that it only took 8MB for 2 minutes (ish) instead of 15
(like my Sailor Moon one is... I'll upload that if I see some interest
too...).  You will see odd lines accross the window, but that's the
expense of the compression (it's 60MB raw if you don't want to lose
quality :) ).

So this is an Apple Quicktime movie (160x120 I believe).  I
specifically stripped it of it's resource fork so it should work
on non-macs (X-windows, Microsoft Windows, etc) with QT for it,
as well as the good old Mac.  Ver 1.6.2 was used, but I think older
versions should handle it...   And the sound is 22mhz Mono.  (rather
good quality too)

It's binhqxed just to annoy others while helping mac users I guess.
And gzipped to save 3 MB for the good old FTP site too.  If you
have any problems with this, want to thank/flame me, want a different
format (I could do it in AVI I guess.... but who would want to :) ),
or generally like sending mail, I can be reached probably the easiest
at "ub342@freenet.victoria.bc.ca" and it should find me.

Enjoy!
