Wow, this is bringing back memories. I would love to paint directly on those video clips like back in the day. Something I STILL CAN'T DO with Adobe! BTW, could you replace the Dylan with a striped RAID array?

Awesome

15:40 When you said the disks went bad, I was immediately thinking of the AWRE and ARRE SCSI modepage settings (bad block relocation) :) DEC also disabled this on their drives to make sure they could do the bad block handling in the OS themselves

I love the "do not connect anything to the VGA port" sticker... 🤣 the reason given souds rather fishy the "do not attach mouse" sticker is also rather hilarious wouldn't the jar files be sent to the quantel ?

Jump cuts in the colden OOpen but leave the intro and outro unedited... what's the rattionale behind that??? Don't jump cut at all

the programmable devices next to the FPGA probably contains the various bitstreams to configure the FPGAs on boot

Does ist handle 4k? Does it run Doom?

How is the MAME version of the paint box going ? Remember hat there was an effort to port it...yes/no ?

Good to see you back! I have missed the Quantel vids, and got a bit overwhelmed with all thr cool stuff going on on the Discord.

great and detailed video mark! thanks for producing and uploading!!!

What an adventure to get it all working. And what a powerful machine.

any chance of recreating a replacement PCB and transfer all the chips on it ?

I actually did a variant of the zuluscsi a few years back that could be built for exceptionally cheap. The bluescsi board was simple enough to be able to build without needing too many pricey parts, and I used one of the weact blackpill variants that was pin compatible enough - just one pin had to be left disconnected on one of the headers. From memory one could be built for well under $10 each plus the sd card However because it wasn't using the more advanced features that zuluscsi could do, I suspect it might not have been fast enough for your purpose

Welcome back

wouldn't the actual performance depend on the type of SD card or SSD being used ? good thing the firmware of the zulu-SCSI is opensource (GPLv3) so it can be modified to implement a simulation of the missing features were the fixes sent as a pull request ?

Congrats on your successes! I dream of a world where all mechanical HDDs can be replaced with solid state equivalent/emulators... I'm glad you're getting there!

HAL + Dylan so nice together (so glad you got a working disk array even if it's not the original Dylan unit, I felt bad when it was still erroring out at the end of that series). But what an odyssey.

When it's high processing, have you checked how many kilowatts the monster needs. Sounds like a lot of silicone sweating.. 👍👍

The intro is ❤‍🔥 , respect!!!

20 spinning rust buckets working, man that's one hell of a requirement !

Woah! Shout out to Swindon! From... erm... well... Swindon, actually. ... can't help wondering if you got 'em from someone I know.

Now that the Dylan is using 16GB SDs rather than the original 1GB HDDs, does that mean it has much more capacity for video now?

Wonderful to see you back! Love the new intro! Funny enough, I was thinking about you and Quantel stuff last night and wanted to ask you a question, it's a bit out of knowhere but I figured you might know or able to tell; somehow it had a Quantel feel to it, the time period seems to fit, it's from the BBC... Do you know if they used Quantel stuff in the early seasons of Red Dwarf?

Good to see you back! Fascinating video.

wow thats mindblowing !! thanks for doing these videos! back when these where modern i was a kid using 3dstudio on ms-dos, with my 486. Systems like these paintboxes where just a unreachable dream back then.. great to finaly see them in detail now.

Thank you for getting this monster running again and showing the work process. Fascinating to see that from a hardware perspective, so much was done with dedicated hardware while the computer itself is a comparatively modest 68k. I really like to utilitarian user interface - 3D buttons? who needs that? Back when this was state of the art and used by tv networks, I imagined such systems to be way more like high performance computer and less dedicated hardware, something like 100x 68k processors in some fancy parallel arrangement. Somehow actually really elegant to achieve this result with some fast logic and what is essentially an atari or macintosh...

Hmmm. I never thought about swapping out the SCSI disks for disk emulators and SD cards... I guess that vastly reduces the heat and the noise, let alone the power requirements.

I worked at a post house that had a Harry, Hal, Henry, Paintbox, Editbox, and a three station Domino. All Amazing products!

Any chances of uploading any ITV Quantel Paintboxes and some Backgrounds as projects?

I eagerly await any kind of future Quantel videos. :)

Can't wait to see the new stuff. You seem to be looking better with age. Can't say the same for me.

I love that theme tune, well, sort-of... It's fallen straight out of the 1980s and accompanies your Quantel graphics perfectly.

I have had fun watching and cant wait to see what more you have ...

Good to see you back...

Love the new opening sequence.

8 months? You do look younger, could be the longer hair! Good to have you back making videos!

A Quantel update!! I'm in... [frantically hits like button and starts watching]

All you need is desolder pump

The use of SCSI for networking is a bit odd...but then there were also printers and scanners which used SCSI, and Scientific Micro Systems made mezzanine interface cards which provided ST506 hard disk and floppy interfaces over SCSI.

can you record more of the battery holder i want to see if can make one

mine did not come with the battery holder

Is it possible to contact you at your email...I am building a tms...thank you

Do you still have this we are willing to purchase for 10K

Hey. Could you do a teardown of an Ohmeda Biox 3760 pulse oximeter? I have a lot of medical issues, but when I was a child in the 90s, that was the first pulse oximeter I used and while I have much higher grade monitors these days, I will never forget the Ohmeda Biox 3760, and I want to see inside! ChatGPT said there's a VFT inside of it, but ChatGPT said that the Ohmeda Biox 3700 has a VFT, but we obviously saw in your video ChatGPT was wrong. I LOVED the Ohmeda Biox 3760 and want to understand what's inside of it!

Hey man can you help me out

Min 14:00 shows the SCR (thyristor)

Is this worth getting today?

Thanks

Love you for your description. Keep it up

I have a M.O. DISK that has 5.2 GB write once by sony
