FIGnition audio loading.

Another Milestone,
Now the 1.00 Firmware for FIGnition is able to facilitate loading programs via audio!
This allows users to upgrade or file transfer with ease, as compared to loading in blocks of 512 bytes via AVR transfer.
Well done to Julian Skidmore for continuing to make the FIGnition a fun computer to use and learn from.
In this video I load up 'Crasher' via a Java Application also written by Julian, that converts '.fth' file to audio signals, then demonstrate the same with a recorded '.wav' file.
You can read how Julian managed to bootjack the atMega168 for this here...

Excellent demo! Really good to see someone else's setup; see programs loading nicely and also see the Crasher game :-) !

Thanks Julian, the setup is a AV adapter to VGA , the fignition has an extra protoboard with a switch for keeping sw1 held in for bootloading (not needed now!!!)plus a groovy box led as power light. The usb lead has a toggle switch inline to allow me to reset the FIGnition without unplugging it. Would be good to see some other setups. ;-)
