Re: TI-H: Power PC
My EIDE drive can't dream of doing raww video caputure (320x240 30 fps no
compression). it takes atleast 4MB a sec, with 5MB for good non jumpy
results. I can do it, but every once in a while it makes a very niticable
jurk. The physical EIDE interface can run at 4.125 on its best day in the
world (if your cables are extremely short). But you also have to look at
the head to drive interface. Some drives can't transfer at ful;l speed.
