Prisma Megamix. New soundcard for classics! - Page 22

No. We're currently taking a break from coding.

Hi.
Is there any way for using prisma with froggerng with arexx or something?

bubbob42 · 07 March 2017, 06:38

Please be more specific.

starship · 07 March 2017, 09:56

For example:
I have a video. I am watching this on frogger.
This video has mp3 stream.
We know Frogger gives its sound data to some cards for encoding, so this is continuous mp3 stream, is there a way for using prisma?

There's no AHI driver for the Prisma, sorry. Frogger needs to support either MHI or prisma.library, which it currently does not.

We're also not sure, yet, if the card will ever be able to perform realtime decoding, which would be necessary to sync audio and video.

Thank you for your answer.

Can i use it on a wb3.1 with AmigaAmp v2.25 68030 a1200?

AmigaAmp 3.21 looks to be only wb3.9

bubbob42 · 15 March 2017, 21:14

Should work.

BSzili · 09 July 2017, 15:26

I looked at the MHI SDK, and since it's meant for MP3 playback, there's no way to query if WMA, OGG, etc. are supported by the hardware using the MHIQuery function. I know the card has its own library, but MHI is more useful because more hardware supports it. Also there's no problem playing various non-MP3 formats using it, it's just that the h/w capabilities can't be queried.
Are there any plans to update the MHI API to add more MHIQ constants for the new formats?

Daedalus · 09 July 2017, 16:06

Yeah, that's what I was wondering as well, as I've written software using the MHI API but was wondering how support for other formats worked. I haven't heard of anyone working on MHI itself in years, but I don't see why someone with appropriate knowledge couldn't extend the specification.

trixster · 06 October 2017, 07:46

Has there been any development on this? Any progress with the spdif board? Is anyone still attempting an ahi driver?

starship · 16 November 2017, 09:52

This card is dead. No spdif, no ahi. Card only for use with amigaamp. other programs doesnt support mhi.

Daedalus · 16 November 2017, 10:27

Or, you could take it as it is - a music decoder card, much like the MAS player but greatly improved. And yes, other programs do support MHI. If you want AHI, get a sound card, not a music decoder.

starship · 16 November 2017, 10:50

Which programs support mhi?

Daedalus · 16 November 2017, 10:54

Off the top of my head, AmiTunes does, and there are a few command line tools that do too.

Mr-Z · 16 November 2017, 11:23

AmigaAmp also supports MHI

Still it would be nice to finally see that CDDA support coming to make this thing at least a slight bit attractive to be considered for purchase...

It already passes through CDDA from CD-ROM.

I remember there was some issues with passthrough in some of the breakout boards or something? I don't know if that is what he means? I think that issue was fixed though.
