    Hi, today I bought Ati R7000 with TV out and I wold like to know, if it works with MOS. And if not, is this planned in the next MOS update?

    I would like to see films on my big TV from bed :o)))

    TV-out on my Radeon 9100 works in firmware, but not in MorphOS

    I hope they'll fix it with the next update. To my understanding, the changes that have to be made on the drivers, are trivial (for a competent driver developer of course).
    I think the most important thing now, is to make all features on a standard pegasos configuration, work, rather than support more and more alternative hardware solutions. For example it's better to get everything on the PegII motherboard, and Radeon (firewire, gigabit ethernet, TVout's, video-in, complete 3d support though JunGL) rather than wasting time, trying to support many alternative solutions like Geforce's and Matrox'es in their very basic features. In any way, there is no MOS game that will not run fast on a radeon 7500, and these cards sell for (very) cheap. The only way, a low-end radeon will not be enough, will be if a complete PS2 emulator gets ported and demands a strong openGL 3d card.... but this is a couple of years ahead in my opinion. Wouldn't a PS1 emulator be cool though? I'd like to play Tekken3 on an ambient screen! :-D

    Nothing special. Just tried if it works. It did.

    Yes, TV-out is a very nice feature. Not many people want to watch movies on their monitor. To me it would mean one less thing I need my PC for, so it's even more important to me right now than 3D support. After all I bought a PC just for the games =)
