Short: The fastest Xing mpeg player! Cgfx/AGA/ECS Author: corneliusen@triumph.no (Nils Corneliusen) Uploader: corneliusen@triumph.no (Nils Corneliusen) Type: gfx/show XingPlay v1.1 by Triumph ------------------------ What is XingPlay? ----------------- XingPlay is the fastest XING-style Mpeg player available for the Amiga. In order to be fast, it cuts a lot of corners. For instance, there is no error checking on the file, it has better be correct! Also, the files must be in so called Xing-Mpeg format, ie. only I-frames and a resolution of 160x120. The previous version of XingPlay was released as "unsupported" software. Now that I have got some more time on my hands, I've decided to fix the worst bugs and maybe add a feature or two. Stay tuned for further improvements... What's hot... ------------- * the fastest Xing-Mpeg player available for the Amiga! * supports Cybergraphics with custom made render routines for all 16 and 32 bit modes. * very fast 2x2 AGA HAM8 mode. * extremely fast GREY modes. * Works on ECS based machines in 16 color grey mode. * double buffering in all modes. * loads entire Mpeg at once - no jerking. * animation can be looped. Requirements ------------ - An amiga :-) - A 68020 processor or better - OS 3.0+ is nice, but it has been reported to work on 2.0 systems Version info ------------ v1.1 Changed the arguments.
