Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

You're away for a few days and miss out on all the cool new features (PicoMiteHDMI MMBasic USB RP2350A). For anyone else who's in the same situation, here's a quick video summary of the news. I finally got round to testing my video grabber (HDMI and VGA! - Colour Maximite 2 is also possible).
I hope it helps some of you.

Good stuff.  

Yes, videos are better then still images.

I set resStep=4 here and inserted numbers into the graphic to see what the quality is like. I noticed that the back is mirrored ;-)
