I waiting delivery of my new Peg2 and was planning on using my voodoo 3500 tv in it.

1. Anyone else using it?

2. How well does it perform in general?

3. How well does it perform for Quake 2 and DVD play back?

4. Can you use the tv tuner card in Morphos?

Thanks for your feed back...

Matt

I heard the TV tuner is not supported. But in general, it should perform great as a 2D card, a 3D card (better than the Radeons, as there are no 3D ATI drivers yet), and great by DVD playback.

I am using a Voodoo3 3000 16MB AGP. Had no problems, except the card is getting hot :)

I use a V3-3500 with my Pegasos 1 and it runs really well

Videos play smoothly and 3D works well (and remember that at the moment it's the only gfx card with 3D support)

No, the TV tuner will not work.

Hi I use a Voodoo3500TV.. although i've switched to v3000 cuz the
breakout cable is a pain in the %#@ on the 3500. The 3500 is faster
and has better ram bus....

We do have V3500tv driver working atm - internal beta

It plays DVD lovely (looks better than Radeon even)

Quake2 is fantastic

works great in mos

Thanks for all your help everyone!

Magnetic: Will that driver be released for the tv portion of the card? Or should I buy a tv card?


Once again, I'm really impressed by the responses on this forum. I'm looking forward to receiving my peg II.

Regards,

Matt

I see Thomas covered all the good replies. The breakout box is a PITA and indeed fragile..but hey, it's a 'fast' (for it's age) card.

I have a Voodoo 3500TV for sale in the US - remnants of my once glorious Pega....reasonable price, I can't remember what I paid on eBay for it...might have been as high as $100.

pmsg or email me if you are interested.

I may have misinformed you, Vooodoo TV FM is being directly supported in AmithlonTV. See this page:

http://www.vmc.de/amithlon/amithlontv/ger_hard.html

But, I cannot comment if it will work in Pegasos, but there is a big chance for it, as the author says that many TV Cards work in Pegasos II better now, rather than the DMA problems by Pegasos I.

Please don't mix VoodooTV FM and Voodoo 3500TV. VoodooTV FM is a bt878a based cared while voodoo3500tv uses different hardware (micronas vpx322x video decoder).
Visionary has Voodoo 3500TV support (and VoodooTV FM support) for quite a while but has not been released to public.
