Re: How to play DVD Movies on X1000

Success! Thanks much.

Now I can enjoy flicks on the nice 27" Samsung Display while I do some work.

Re: Questions from a new X1000 owner and new OS4.x user

Now I am ready to back up my system, before I start downloading and installing more software. One of my first downloads will be Timberwolf, but I also want to see how OWB-MUI compares to the OWB that I am using to post this from. From what I have read over the last few months, I am guessing that OW...

Re: Questions from a new X1000 owner and new OS4.x user

@amigasociety, I think the X1000 is very quiet. Not silent, and maybe not as quiet as a G4 MacMini, but still very acceptable, IMHO. The Mac Mini I was referencing is a 2010 Intel based Mini, dead silent almost like the original Cube. I hardely ever even hear a fan. As for the X1000, yes the sound ...

Re: How to play DVD Movies on X1000

Getting video now but no audio. Installed the avcodec_lib and dvddvplayer files as an FYI. So now video but no audio. From main menu tried audio boost check box made no difference. So what does it take to get audio from the DVDs? Is this a X1000 MB not using audio port yet and we are using a 3rd par...

Re: Questions from a new X1000 owner and new OS4.x user

I looked for the OS4.1.5 install CD/DVD, but one was not included in my shipment. So I can't even do a clean re-install to start over. According to AmigaKit the CD's should be in soon, however I believe they included a copy of the AmigaOS4.1 Update 5 iso on the Workbench of "First Contact"...

How to use 2nd screen, the one behind workbench?

I know a little about the cool Amiga OS feature of dragging down the screen so one can have apps running behind the main workbench screen. But, how does one drag apps, or make apps, run on other screens? Is it just 1 screen behind the main workbench screen you have access to or is there more than 1?...

How to play DVD Movies on X1000

I insert a DVD and it appears on the desktop. I then launch DVplayer and select OPEN DVD/CD, the DVD light on drive blinks, but no movie plays. It does this forever and seems to almost take over much of the CPU power as launching others apps, etc... go real slow minutes later. So, how do I play DVDs...

Re: Questions from a new X1000 owner and new OS4.x user

Dave, I believe all you need to do if the auto detect is not working is uncheck that box and set your own resolutions as Trevor noted. Maybe a uncheck of the auto detect box the other selections will re-appear for you to choose and tweek to your monitors settings? I know I had to play with mine a bi...

Dave, watch this video. Towards the end you will see when he opens the case, two things should jump out at you. AmigaNG video. He is on the various Amiga forums. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUYFW8GKLXs #1, the difficulty opening the side panels. They are a little tricky and you have to slide it b...

Re: Questions from a new X1000 owner and new OS4.x user

Confused on the comment DVI not being support? Right now I am driving my 27" Samsung monitor via DVI-D to DVI-D cable from DVI port on X1000 to rear of my monitor at full 1920 x 1080 resolution.
