Short: Ultimate MPEG video player (68k & PPC v1.48) Author: Miloslaw Smyk, Sebastian Jedruszkiewicz, Przemyslaw Gruchala Uploader: Sebastian Jedruszkiewicz Type: gfx/show WWW: http://amiga.com.pl/frogger/ Replaces: gfx/show/?rogger.lha Short ------ Frogger is the ultimate MPEG video player, with MPEG-2 layer support. Frogger was oryginally relased by Miloslaw Smyk (thorgal@wfmh.org.pl), recently, the development has been taken over by Sebasian Jedruszkiewicz (bjsebo@jota.wi.tuniv.szczecin.pl) Additional programming was made by Przemyslaw Gruchala. Changes in this release ------------------------ v1.48 - The new C2P, that can perform image scaling, are now also used in windowed mode on AGA. the difference is HUGE. - 68k version available. v1.47 - 68k version does not need FPU any more. - Fixed XING streams frame rate calculation. - FORCESTEREO tooltype did not worked. Fixed. - Fixed some enforcer hits. - Added audio decoding in 68k version. It is slow. Very slow. - Optimized video decoder. Video is decoded about 1-4% faster. - Reworked audio routines. - Frogger now works under wos, thanks to new ppc.library emulation. You will need 0.7a, which is available on Frank Wille home page. The one from aminet (0.7) can cause problems when audio is disabled. Bacause of some incompabillity with PLL calculation in original and emulated ppc.library, I also made a quick workaround to make timer routines works under emulation. - recompilled everything with gcc 2.95.2. - Reworked asyncio routines. New demultiplication routines. - There is new programm called Splitter. It splits mpeg system stream (system stream is an MPEG with audio and video tracks) into separated files. - New C2P in PPC version, that supports scaling. Much faster on AGA machines when scaling is enabled. Those C2P was made by Jacek Cybularczyk. - Frogger now looks for FBlit installed in your system (if you got AGA). FBlit support is enabled automagically if FBlit was found. If you got AGA, please install it, it will speed a lot of things. - A bit faster direct CGFX routines. But they may cause problems. Please contact me in case of wrong display on CGFX. - Two new icons (for os3.5) delivered by Pavel Narozny. - A lot of other small changes in both video and audio decoder. - Added support for Apple muxed MPEG Media. I found only 2 such a streams on net so far, but If you got such a files, you can now watch them using Frogger. - Temporary removed MPEG2 support. I will enable it again, when Ill be sure that it works correctly. Please refer to guide inside archive for more info. Changes in this release:
