FrameThrower PiStorm RGBtoHDMI Adapter Amiga500 / Amiga2000

PiStorm Addon “FrameThrower” RGMtoHDMI Adapter for Amiga500 + Amiga 2000

The long awaited addon “FrameThrower” for the PiStorm for the Amiga 500 and Amiga 2000 is finally ready!

This adapter is used to output the RGB signals from the Amiga 500/2000 via the PiStorm to HDMI. The adapter is installed in the Denise socket of the Amiga 500/2000 and the Denise chip is plugged into the adapter and connected to the Raspberry Pi on the PiStorm via an FPC cable. With this it is finally possible to play RGB via HDMI and this replaces a 2nd monitor connection via RGB / 2nd HDMI adapter in the Amiga 500 and Amiga 2000 and makes an additional RGB2HDMI adapter superfluous for PiStorm Amiga’s!

Sound playback is not (yet) possible but will soon be implemented in the software according to Claude Schwarz!

We offer the adapter in 2 versions: Community Edition with a large donation for Claude or as a Normal Edition. You can also order an HDMI extension with a non-destructive 3D print housing/slot bezel.

By purchasing the adapter from us, you are actively supporting the project, as part of the proceeds go directly to the team!
