S1500 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 This came up in a discussion I was having. Sure, the Amiga was used in later years for public access TV channels(weather, community news, school lunches), but was the TI ever used? The only time I saw the TI used on TV was on an episode of The Price is Right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tursi Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 The local UHF station in my grandparent's town of Peachland, BC, clearly used a TI for the community messages channel (back in the 90s). From the font to a double-size magnified sprite of Mr Bojangles dancing across the top of the screen, I recognized it instantly. Sadly, no pictures. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 In the mid 80's, the local cable access channel I volunteered at used a TI-99/4A to program the chyron. They upgraded to an Amiga for all video work later, but being an underfunded entity had to make do with cast-offs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
