Greaseweazle V4 Amiga USB Flash Floppy Intro - How To Video

Retro EZ 2021-08-28 | This is a quick intro video demonstrating basic usage of the Greaseweazle V4, reading a real Commodore Amiga floppy disk, via a generic PC floppy drive and saving it as an Amiga .ADF floppy disk image file. The image file is then loaded into a real Amiga environment using the WinUAE emulator on Windows. The Greaseweazle can also be used to write .ADF images back to blank Amiga floppy disks... as well as many other formats.

PiMiga DIY Case OLED Configuration

Retro EZ 2021-08-11 | This video is a rough and quick guide, showing users how to configure Chris Edwards PiMIGA 1.5 to work with the OLED screen in Michael Klements DIY Raspberry Pi 4 case (UK DIY case stock available via Retro EZ - store launch w/c Monday 16/08/21). Michael has his own guides available online (the-diy-life.com/connect-and-program-an-oled-stats-display-for-your-raspberry-pi) however, these are based on a Raspberry Pi running a stock Linux build. We discovered a few extra steps required when using this case/OLED display with the PiMIGA distro and we would like to share those with you here... (we will do a professional screen capture at some stage - as we've just moved offices and we need to get everything setup - however, we hope this helps for now).
