Warp factor 560 taking the Amiga 500 into the future - Please read description

VAMPIRE fans note: This video was filmed with Core 2.11, so I updated to Core 2.12 and made no bloody diference at all.
It appears I churned up a storm because I have not updated my vampire core recently and I assumed as I was on x11 that going x12 would not make a huge difference plus I have to pull machine apart to go x12. My Big mistake was I missed the FastIDE mode setting, and yes 6.5mbs which is pretty fast thanks.
I think some people are missing the point, the Vampire and Warp are pedestrian slow by todays standards, but fantastic for making an old machine fly which they both do very well. If the Vampire turns out to be twice the speed of the warp, then I will still take the Warp due to the 1080p display if the vampire costs the same. Sorry.

A review of the amazing Warp 560 board by CS Labs in Poland
Errors:
1. Did not realise there was a FastIDE setting, although I think because I have a second IDE device I ignored it then forgot about it. Any way 8.5mbs for Vampire so reversing my conclusions.
2. There was confusion on USB from my part as I thought only Mouse/Keyboard but it seems PenDrive, USB memory sticks as well.
3. I forgot to mention the MicroSD card socket, was waiting for answers about it and forgot to mention.
4. I need to stress the STM32 Arm chip is not programmable as I thought, it has a number of baked in functions, sorry for that but still an amazing adition.

Q&A
Jonathan Wickett
Are they going to be starting a pre order list for purchase?

After testing, we will prepare a list of pre-orders. There will be 2 dining lists with a second processor with their own.
Unfortunately, our CPU resources are very limited (even exhausted). So getting your CPU card may not be possible.

Anton Gale
Can you control the fan speed based on temp from the Warp, or are they fixed speed?

That's how you do it (in YOUTUBE movies) they talked about it badly. You can set the temperature that cooling should try to maintain.
Currently (silent = 45'C; performance = 40'C, full speed)

Royce Hunt
Since some people have a DVD drive, how well does the ARM on the Warp 560 handle full length movies?

Yes, I recommend movies in 4K super looks ... hahahah it's just an Amiga with a 100MHz processor.
the only movies are those in mpg1 that can be demaged. I haven't seen AMIGA playing DVDs yet, maybe WinUAE

Mark Antony Wilkins Breckell
How much does this cost, and would i have to get my own cpu.

If you want to buy such a card, you must buy the CPU yourself

Steven Tibbits I understand that this might be a little premature but is there any schedule for or information on the Warp4060 for those of us with big box machines 3000/4000.
It will rise this year, but it will also be without a CPU

Alan Haynes
Can the Warp 560 be used in an A/B2000 without any modification?

No - we do not have AMIGA 2000 and we did not design for this model. I know it works, but it is necessary to modify the fitter on an Amiga PCB

Renee Cousins
What are the state of the STM32's Picasso 96 drivers? For example, does it offload blitter-like work to the STM32 or does that depend on the 68060? Other than MP3 is there anything else that the STM32 can offload and is there any API on how users can access the ARM core from the 68060?

STM32 does not support GFX. only FPGA in it is a hardware blitter, STM32 - audio decoder, USB controller, SD controler
(in this form it is only an additional specialized chip).
There is only a library for static tasks this system performs. You cannot write your own programs for SM32. Code is static !!

Renee Cousins
Is the API at all like the A314 and/or UAE?
NO.

Renee Cousins
Does USB handle both low and full speed mice
USB 1.1 – Full Speed 12 Mb/s (1,5 MB/s) - theoretically
we plan to use a faster USB interface in WARP4060

Renee Cousins
How fast is the internal FastIDE?
up to 10Mb/s if we write our own device for this port it will be a bit faster, so far it's GAYLE emulation

Alan Haynes
Steve what is the eventual hope for the USB ports?
Will they be able to connect to almost any USB device?

We only plan the necessary devices. MOUSE / KEYBOARD / PENDRIVE maybe a gamepad
