Videodelic directly imports PICT images, JPEG images and QuickTime movies. Most other common still image formats are automatically translated if you have the appropriate File Exchange, Macintosh Easy Open and QuickTime Exchange options turned on. The details vary with the Mac OS version you have installed. Videodelic is capable of rendering and performing at a number of resolutions (512 by 512, 640 by 480, 720 by 480, and 768 by 576).

In order to accomplish its magic, Videodelic reduces the color depth of input images to 8 bits (256 colors). The output is 24-bit color (additional color depth is added by Videodelic's effects).

Not directly. But QuickTime 4 makes it possible to convert mp3 files into files that can be used as soundtracks by Videodelic (in the Montage Room). The reason is simple. While mp3 files take up very little hard disk space, they are CPU-intensive to decode. Therefore they are not suitable for using directly with Videodelic. You can use the QuickTime player (and many freeware utilities) to convert mp3 files into AIFF files. Videodelic uses 16-bit, 44.

There is an appliation called MidiBridge9x that allows applications running in Classic to access the OS X core MIDI. Many users are experiencing excellent results with it. You can find out more at: Yes, Xx is being ported to OS X. MetaSynth 4 underwent a significant transformation from earlier versions and we just were not able to get Xx done at the same time -- and we didn't want to sit on the finished MetaSynth 4 until Xx was done.

Videodelic can run on any PowerMacintosh. However, because real-time visual processing is very CPU-intensive, on some older machines, the performance may not be acceptable. We recommend a 200 MHz PowerPC 604 or faster processor. Live video input and QuickTime movies require more horsepower for playback than projects that use still images as source material. A 300 MHz or faster G3 processor is recommended (but not required) for the best results with QuickTime movies and video input.

A:  We recommend clear detailed pictures. The etching is only a good as the picture we receive. If the picture is blurry or pix elated, it may etch poorly. A:  You can send a picture to us by mail. If you would like it returned, please include a self addressed envelope with the proper postage.  Mike's Laser Etching is not responsible for any damaged made by the U.S. Postal Service.

Videodelic doesn't need a lot of memory. The minimum memory partition is 24 megabytes which will be adequate for most projects. If your project uses a lot of pictures or uses QuickTime movies, you will want to increase the partition size.

Yes, the precise details about how to use Videodelic with a projector depends primarily on your computer hardware (i.e. what model of Macintosh you have and what, if any, additional, video input/output your monitor/video card has) and your projector. Videodelic sends the performance (called Overdrive) to a monitor. So, as long as your computer sees your projector as a computer monitor, you simply set up Videodelic to display its Overdrive on that monitor.
