Short: AVI animation player for CyberGraphX and 68020+ Author: tboeckel@uni-paderborn.de (Thore Boeckelmann) Uploader: tboeckel@uni-paderborn.de (Thore Boeckelmann) Type: gfx/show Replaces: gfx/show/CyberAVI13.lha CyberAVI is a fast AVI animation player for 020+ machines with AmigaOS 3.0 or higher and a graphic card with CyberGraphX. minimum hardware requirements: -Amiga with AmigaOS 3.0 (V39) -MC68020 -a graphic card (eg. CyberVision64, Picasso II, Retina, etc) -2MB of FastRAM software requirements -CyberGraphX 2.16 (not included) -asyncio.library V37 (included) recommended hardware requirements: -Amiga with AmigaOS 3.1 (V40) -MC68040 25MHz Sorry, but there is no support for ECS/AGA. CyberGraphX is far to easy to use with screen >=8 bit, so I didn't implement any dithering routines. Maybe AGA will be supported in later versions. Supported codecs until now: Microsoft Video 1 (CRAM) 8/16 bit video Radius CinePak (CVID) 24 bit video Microsoft RGB (RGB) 8/16/24/32 bit video Microsoft RLE8 (RLE8) 8 bit video IBM Ultimotion (ULTI) 16 bit video PCM 8 bit audio Mono CyberAVI is Copyright (c)1996 by Thore Boeckelmann. Changes since V1.3: - CyberAVI was nearly completely rewritten, because the source code had become very confusing and weird :) - 00xx chunks are now recognized as "video chunks" - CyberAVI now uses sub tasks for decoding audio and video data - innocent memory could have been overwritten if the frame sized had to be rounded. This is fixed now. - many minor bugfixes - removed FRAMESPERSECOND option since there was no real reason for it. added MAXFPS option instead to force maximum playback speed - now AVIs will be played "by index". If an index chunk is found it will be used to determine the sequence in that the animation will be played. - added NOINDEX switch to force ignorance of the index chunk - added support for 8 bit RGB anims. Thanks to Joachim Greve for for the example animations. - improved recognition of movie chunks. Unknown video chunks should not appear anymore (eg: 00xx, 00id, etc) - added support for startup from WB - added SKIP switch. This allows skipping of video frames if necessary and possible. - fixed problem with shrug display of some animations. - removed some MungWall hits - I hope the sound problems are gone now. A big "Thank you" to Thomas Wenzel for his great support. ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 2640 1776 32.7% 31-May-96 14:17:58 asyncio.library 1865 721 61.3% 23-Jul-96 23:08:10 CyberAVI.guide.info 2606 1266 51.4% 02-Aug-96 00:37:20 CyberAVI.readme 44668 21242 52.4% 05-Aug-96 15:31:20 CyberAVI 21901 8422 61.5% 05-Aug-96 15:11:38 CyberAVI.guide 1781 1262 29.1% 05-Aug-96 15:12:18 CyberAVI.info -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 75461 34689 54.0% 06-Aug-96 21:42:28 6 files
