  oh, if it's just streaming raw data from a huge cart, I'm disappointed

  
  Well, it took 5 years to design and produce the cartridge and the related software. And the data is not raw full screen images but uses the special features (dynamic display list, display list interrupts, inverse encoding) of the ANTIC to compress the images by 75%.

  I can't believe you could actually stream that much data from the tape ! also using the left channel for audio is brilliant !

  
  Well, you can't, so just to get that right: The tape contains the audio (left channel) and sync signals (right channel at the start, final version also at other sync points). The video data is coming from a ROM/Flash cartridge. The 6502 would not be fast enough in that video mode to copy at that speed, even with unrolled LDA/STA.

• demo Atari XL/XE Bad Apple HD by JAC! [web] & MotionRide
• After 5 years of hard work I'm extremely proud to present this unknown 1979 Atari commercial:
  - requires The!Cart and a datasette
  - works on unexpanded Atari 400 with 16k RAM or higher machine
  - works on both PAL and NTSC machines, PAL recommended
  - only uses passive ROMs and standard tapes, no external CPU, microcontroller etc.
  - 384 x 232 pixels, full overscan display
  - 50 frames per second, dynamically adapted on NTSC
  - real voice audio from the "educational soft" left tape channel
  - additional intro and outro part resulting in 5:35 total runtime
  - 177 MB of raw video compressed to 41 MB of video using unique ANTIC hardware compression
  - 29 MB uncompressed 16-bit PCM audio recorded on the tape
  
  After 5 years of working on Bad Apple it was finished in September and then I had the idea to add the intro and outro. The past 6 weeks with Lucy and MotionRide made this the best this for me personally since I've created Silly Things and RGBA. The main part is it not important for me anymore - the intro and outro and the love that work that went into it are what make this an achivement for me personally. Thank you Lucy and Pete!
  
  - Read the story
  - Watch it recorded from real Atari 400 and Atari 410 (NTSC)
  - Watch it recorded from Altirra (PAL)
  
  The download contains a pre-configured setup with Altirra, so you can just double click "BadAppleHD.bat".

• 16k Atari XL/XE Onedimensional by Noice [web]
• Love you color choice. Always did and probably always will.
  The sync in the section where the music gets fast and the bars are flashing worked great on the big screen and the PA.

  does Atari XL/XE platform needs to be subdivided?

  
  Na, that's why there are separate categories in the compo.
  But the amount of releases does not justify a separate Pouet category, just a clear mention in the .nfo as it was done here.

• 16k Atari XL/XE Grey Screen With Broken Music by JAC! [web]
• Because all previous "Grey Screen With ..." releases were missing the actual Grey.
  Homage to our great organizer Grey and the awesome Falcon BenQ Desaster at Silly Venture 2k17 :-)
  There the graphics generated by the Falcon graphics system tricks repeatedly forced the beamer to reboot.
  Party-coded for Silly Venture 2k18 on 2018-11-01, because every Silly Venture deserves a silly demo.
  
  Watch on youtube.

• I don't like the color choice for the main part. Though my kitchen looked like that before, there it looked OK.
