Thanks for reminding me of disk video mode! As I am trying to get the time and energy to do more audio fractal explorations it may have saved me some rediscovering. Since the visual part of the fractal is of little or no interest/use to me in producing audio fractals, I would often use disk video mode to listen to the sounds while in a dos box. I could control my sound card and recording modes quite easily within windows, and when necessary get back into the fractint window to adjust parameters within fractint. While the speed of disk video may be of great use for most, it is irrelevant to me...I always use orbit delay - often with values of 1000 or more.

I CAN'T BELIEVE I just discover this

now !!

I have for many years now!!!

I use it when I have to, for machines that will not display FractInt correctly, or when needing specialized video modes (especially large resolutions). Usually works quite well, and somewhat faster.

Just prefer seeing the generated images more. :-)

Sincerely,
P.N.L.
