Video or hu-video code sample
« on: October 17, 2024, 11:11:47 PM »
Does anyone happen to have any code samples that would enable, even at a rudimentary level, video with sound on the PC engine?

Tom posted some examples of replacing the video in Gulliver Boy with something else, but I don't know if he investigated far enough to determine exactly how it works or to easily add huvideo to entirely new games.

Thanks, I'm guessing Elmer is Tom.
I found his stuff thanks to you. I don't think source code was released but let's see what we can get.

Elmer is a different talented dude.  Tom has also gone by malducci and bonknuts.

Anyways, it'd be awesome to see some more HuVideo stuff, especially if it's use in a cool homebrew game.

He's currently known as Turboxray on most forums and such. You can find him on Twitter and YouTube under that name, as well as the PC Engine Discord channels.
