Atari ST Compacted Disk (CD) Scrollers [374] Retro PlayThrus #009 - 25ish Days of XMas BONUS


This is the first of my own disks that I have captured for the YouTube channel.  I figured I would capture all of the menus released with the Christmas theme and throw them up as bonus posts, rather than a primary post.

This is the first of my own disks that I have captured for the YouTube channel.  I figured I would capture all of the menus released with the Christmas theme and throw them up as bonus posts, rather than a primary post.

I am not including the scroll text yet, but the capture does include the whole scroll text.

When I first started assembling the Christmas disks, and collecting all of the contents for both Youtube and for the CDs, I did not really have a good plan of attack.  I dabbled with ideas for music, and artwork.  Finally I settled on using MOD files, and going with two images per disk.  All 4 disks will be set up this way.

Here we are first greeted with an image of a Scottish Terrier, adapted from an old Christmas card (there might be a theme ahead) and then that leads to a nice wintery scene with a rendition of Jingle Bells playing in the background.  A selection of 9 Christmas themed demos are included on this disk!

Capture info -

This video was captured on November 9, 2019.

The demo was played on an Atari 1040 STE, TOS 1.62, 4MB.
A Best Electronics ST Monitor to VGA cable was used, connected to an OSSC 1.6 (processing the video in Line4x mode), with the output being captured by a Startech USB3HDCAP.

Video was edited with Shotcut.
