With program start, or on the Workbench (Directory Opus replacement the Workbench), a Appicon Opus MPEGA is stored (@{" Screenshot " link "AppIcon.ilbm/main"}). They can switch the AppIcon off in the Preferences, then this is only represented with the selection by MPEG audio files. To this AppIcon one or more MPx Audiodateien and/or complete directories can be transferred by drag & drop. The files and contents of directories are analyzed. Files of the formats MPEG Layer-2, MPEG Layer-3 and Windows WAV MPEG Layer-3 are transferred into the playing window, other files are ignored. Alternatively, or if no AppIcon is adjusted, they can select several MPEG audio files and/or directories in file more lister in or and select afterwards the PLAY a Button of the tool border (or playing in the PopUp menu). They know directly in the PopUp menu of the AppIcon Opus MPEGA over the menu option last open file(s) one or more MPEG audio files to select. If the playing window is already opened and during playback again selected audio files is attached. The audio playback starts automatically. Information to title & length takes place in the continuation indicator with abort Button. Click abort the Button terminated presently/immediately playback and the next title are played. One clicks equal the abort Button again, entire playback is terminated and the window is again closed. Over the PopUp menu of the AppIcon Opus MPEGA playback can be stopped, be branched to the next or previous title, be called the preferences and this guidance @{" Screenshot " link "AppIconMenu.ilbm/main"}. The same functions are available with the graphic button bank like a CD audio player. Call they these with the menu option Player Buttons @{" Screenshot " link "Playerleiste.ilbm/main"}. The menu option mp3 tag info enables large information @{" Screenshot " link "mp3info.ilbm/main"}. So far available, information is output to songtitle, interpret, album, comment, category, MPEG version, Layer version, bit rate and samplingrate in a requester. @{b}@{fg shadow}@{bg shine} Play-MPx.dopus5 @{bg background}@{fg text}@{ub} ============================================================================= if it MPEG an audio file by doubleclick select, these scripts one calls. That script transfers the names to the file to the module Opus MPEGA, with which the title is played immediately. Doubleclick to a further MP audio file interrupts the title at the moment played, and the selected is played. To that doubleclick is thus quite useful, in order to through-listen several audio files briefly. If Opus MPEGA is running and for example, contents deleted several files in play more lister! If they would like to attach files, they must keep the right alt key pressed! @{b}@{fg shadow}@{bg shine} Play-MPAudio.dopus5 @{bg background}@{fg text}@{ub} ============================================================================= these scripts can be used alternatively for the previous (Play-MPx.dopus5) (Directoy Opus Magellan V5.6 or more again necessarily!). Play-MPAudio.dopus5 operates independently of Opus MPEGA. Doubleclick to a MPx audiofile play these immediately. A continuation indicator is represented, where playback can be aborted at any time. Click to the played terminated at the moment automatically on a further title. Likewise Opus MPEGA and Delitracker is terminated before. With pressed right alt held grope the selected audio files at Opus MPEGA are transferred and in the Listerfenster attached. @EndNode @Node Kurz3 "features" @{b}@{fg shadow}@{bg shine} supported audio hardware: @{bg background}@{fg text}@{ub} ================================================================== @{b}MPEG cards:@{ub} MELODY @{b}@{fg shine}@{bg shadow}Homepage:@{bg background}@{fg text} http://kato.home.pages.de@{ub} Peggy-Plus (Ingenierburo Helfrich) MPEG videocard CD32/FMV (Commodore) Full Motion Video Modul @{b}Sound cards:@{ub} MELODY @{b}@{fg shine}@{bg shadow}Homepage:@{bg background}@{fg text} http://kato.home.pages.de@{ub} Maestro pro @{b}@{fg shine}@{bg shadow}Homepage:@{bg background}@{fg text} http://www.Macrosystem.de@{ub} 16bit Digital Audio Interface Toccata @{b}@{fg shine}@{bg shadow}Homepage:@{bg background}@{fg text} http://www.Macrosystem.de@{ub} 16bit Soundcard Delfina 16bit Soundcard with DSP Prelude @{b}@{fg shine}@{bg shadow}Homepage:@{bg background}@{fg text} http://www.act-net.com/Prelude@{ub} 16bit Soundcard The sound cards use PPCMpegPlayer (PPC) or MPEGA (68k) and AHI audio system for the MPEG playing (Layer2 and 3). @{b}Amiga-Audio:@{ub} 8-bit @{b}@{fg shine}@{bg shadow}Homepage:@{bg background}@{fg text} http://www.amiga.de@{ub} Player: MPEGA AHI audio system (8 and 14bit modis) Player: MPEGA The AHI audio system is Copyright ©1994-97 Martin Blom. All further sound cards, to which a AHI driver is available, are supported. For PPC boards the PPCMpegPlayer which is attached on the powerUP CDROM. Users of a MPEG card can use these. The advantage here is the extremely small system load. MPEG cards can directly show unfortunately only the formats MPEG audio Layer-1 and 2. The Melody sound card uses for Layer-3 PPCMpegPlayer (PPC) or MPEGA (68k) and AHI. For the further MPEG cards (Peggy plus, CD32/FMV) for Layer-3 a sound card or Amiga audio is selected, sees @{" Preferences " link Prefs}. @EndNode @Node Install "System requirements" @{b}@{fg shadow}@{bg shine} System requirements @{bg background}@{fg text}@{ub} =========================================================================== Is recommended an Amiga with OS 3.0, at least 4 MB RAM, 68020 or better. If the software decoder MPEGA is used for playback, is recommended 68040. The discotheque studio halle uses the program regularly with a A1200, Apollo 68060 turbo-board, 16MB almost RAM and a VGA monitor under Multiscan Productivity. ~33 hours of music are stored on the internal 2.1GB hard disk in Layer-3. Privately the author uses a A4000 in the RBM Tower, PowerUp 604-233MHz with 64MB RAM and several audio cards (Melody+Toccata+PeggyPlus+MaestroPro). Interlaced the MaestroPro with a Astra digitally radio, and a AKAI digital Amplifier, over several optical cables is. Entire signal processing effected digitally, notorious humming loops are impossible. Radio accommodations are stored in MPEG Layer-3, or burned in the CDDA format on CDR. The necessary signal rework effected with Samplitude 3.0. @{b}@{fg shine}@{bg shadow}Homepage:@{bg background}@{fg text} http://www.act-net.com/samplitude@{ub} The programs (Maestro accommodation and playback) run problem-free and crash-free in the background, thus that the Amiga 100% usable remains e.g. with the programming of Opus MPEGA. Opus MPEGA uses intensively the Amiga multitasking and the interprocess communication over Arexx. Thus takes place access to other programs, which must be accordingly correctly installed. Absolutely must be installed Directory Opus starting from the version 5.5 (logically?). MPEGA starting from the version 3.3 of Stéphane TAVENARD is needed for playback over Amiga audio or sound cards (poison commodity, see below). For power PC board audio playback is made by PPCMpegPlayer, MPEGA for the analysis of the audio files is likewise needed. For sound cards and 14bit playing over Amiga audio is AHI (Retargetable audio for Amiga OS by Martin Blom) to install (see below). For the MPEG card MELODY enclosed Player MPEGPlay (© 1997 by Thorsten Hansen) is to be installed for this card. The Peggy plus MPEG card can be used with the enclosed MPEGplayer. The disadvantage of this Player is, which is not possible a premature interruption of playback, but only at the title end. Opus MPEGA supports the original player only limited! The Peggy plus can be likewise used with the universal Player MPEGPlay (©1997 by Thorsten Hansen), with which these disadvantages are avoided. Contact they directly by email the author @{b}(hansen_t@informatik.fh-hamburg.de)@{ub} or see @{b}@{fg shine}@{bg shadow}Homepage:@{bg background}@{fg text} http://kato.home.pages.de@{ub}. No MPEG Audioplayer is attached to the CD32 with FMV module. It is likewise used therefore MPEGPlay (©1997 by Thorsten Hansen). Unfortunately this configuration could not be tested yet. For possible problems as fast as possible an update takes place. Further necessary programs are installed during the installation. The configuration of the programs specified above are made by the Preferences program. Therefore it is no matter where they installed these. @{b}RexxMast:@{ub} RexxMast would have to be situated with installation correct of the Workbench in the system drawer. So that arexx programe can be executed, they start RexxMast by doubleclick. If they did not do this yet, during the installation the script User-Startup is completed around this line: SYS:System/RexxMast >NIL: Thus RexxMast is started automatically while the raising their Amiga system. @{b}PIPE:@{ub} PIPE would have to be situated with installation correct of the Workbench in the drawer DEVS:DOSDrivers. PIPE is absolutely needed for Opus MPEGA, otherwise they receive an error message. @EndNode @Node PROGRAMME "Player Programs" @{b}@{fg shadow}@{bg shine} Player programs: @{bg background}@{fg text}@{ub} ==================== On this page the programs are presented, which should be installed on their Amiga. @{b}AHI (V4.14+):@{ub} the AHI audio system is Copyright ©1994-97 Martin Blom. All sound cards to those a AHI driver is available, by Opus MPEGA are supported. @{u}Homepages:@{uu} @{b}@{fg shine}@{bg shadow}Homepage:@{bg background}@{fg text} http://www.lysator.liu.se/~lcs/ahi.html@{ub} @{b}MPEGA:@{ub} MPEGA is the ultimative MPEG audio decoder (Layers I, II & III) ©1997 Stéphane Tavenard. @{b}PPCMpegPlayer:@{ub} This is just a simple example of what you can do with a fast CPU. This simple mpeg1 layer1-3 player decodes layer3 mpegs (aka mp3) in realtime using about 40% of the cpu on a 603@150 (I have no benchmarks from the real 604@200 boards) This decoder is about 2.5 times faster on a 603@150 than mpega3.1 is on a 060@50 and this decoder is written 100% in C. To listen to it you need to have AHI v4 or later installed. It will play using unit 0 in AHI so you'd better set that unit to. @{u}PowerUp Homepages:@{uu} @{b}@{fg shine}@{bg shadow}Homepage:@{bg background}@{fg text} http://www.phase5.de@{ub} @{b}Programs download@{ub} if directory Opus and a TCP/IP stack runs, can it the programs by mouse-clicks down-loads.

The Install script is relatively easy to handle and to a large extent self-describing, so that without the novice mode could be done. At the moment the Install script contains German and English texts, which are used depending upon selected language. Doubleclick they [Install English] Icon. Select they the install mode: Use they best the preset mode intermediate user, it have thereby free selection over language versions and the directory for this guide. In the expert mode all internal messages must be acknowledged individually, and you can select additionally those programs which can be installed. The Installscript checks the presence of Opus5 and installs the Scripte and files into the appropriate [ DOPUS5: ] Directories. If an older version of the programs should be found, these are first removed. @EndNode @Node Prefs "Configuration" @{" Configuration Opus5 " link Install3} @{b}@{fg shadow}@{bg shine} Player configuration: @{bg background}@{fg text}@{ub} ========================= OpusMPEGA find it with installation according to standard in the prefs directory of the Workbench. Over the appicon Opus MPEGA can it the Preferences at any time directly select. As the first they select their sound card. For standard Amiga audio are to AMIGA (Paula) and AMIGA (AHI audio system) to the selection. The latter enabled improved playback in 14bit, otherwise only 8-bits are possible without sound card. After selection of a MPEG card (Melody, Peggy plus, CD32/FMV) they select a further sound card or Amiga audio for the Layer-3 playback. For powerPC the PPC MPEGPlayer is to be selected, excluded it uses a MPEG card. MPEG cards use hardware decoding for Layer-2. The selection of the PPC MpegPlayer for the Layer-3 playback takes place then in the next step. For PPC MpegPlayer no sound card one output-selects. They select instead a default (unit 0 to 3). With the AHI preferences program takes place the selection of the sound card under the same unit. The configuration of the MPEGA software player follows. Select they the path to MPEGA, and the version suitable for their Amiga. If they installed MPEGA in the directory C (C:MPEGA.040 or C:MPEGA.020), this point is skipped. Select they the process priority for MPEGA (0 is recommended). Values over 1 are not meaningful. With priorities >1 other processes can get, in-special DirOpus5 itself no longer sufficient computing time. This becomes apparent in the incorrect structure of the indikator requester. For playback over AMIGA (Paula) further specification is necessary: Select the quality, possible are Low, medium and High. For A4000 High can be selected, otherwise selects you for playback problems (misfire) the lower level. Recommended adjustments take it from the table: | Layer-1/2 | Layer-3 Processor | Quality|FreqDiv|Mono | Quality|FreqDiv|Mono ----------+--------+-------+-----+--------+-------+----- 68040-40 | high | 1:2 | off | medium | 1:2 | on 68060-50 | high | 1:1 | off | high | 1:1 | off A separate configuration file to MPEGA (e.g. MPEGA.CFG in S directory) is not necessary or is ignored! With selected AHI audio system the playback mode is to be selected. Further specification to the different Moduses finds it in the guidance to AHI. See @{" AHI.guide " link "SYS:Locale/Help/ahi.guide/Concept Index" 0}. Click they in the index its sound card or Paula and afterwards The mode Descriptors. For MPEG cards the far path is to be selected to the drawer, in which the program MPEGPlay by Thorsten Hansen is installed. Thus the configuration is final, the data into the Environment variable ENVARC:OpusMPEGA.prefs is written. @EndNode @Node Install3 "filetypes & button" @{b}@{fg shadow}@{bg shine} Directory Opus5 filetypes @{bg background}@{fg text}@{ub} ====================================== During the installation are installed filetypes for MPEG audio: sample, MPEG Layer-2 sample, MPEG Layer-3 sample, WAVE MPEG Layer-3 These files are absolutely needed, in order to detect MPEG audio files. A configuration is not necessary. With doubleclick over this filetypes that script @{" Play-MPx.dopus5 " link "Kurz"52} are called. Into the STORAGE directory the same files are again installed. The difference is, which these call the script @{" Play-MPAudio.dopus5 " link "Kurz"66} If they use DirectoryOpus Magellan, they can select this possibility during the installation. @{fg shine}___________________________________________________________________________ @{fg shadow}___________________________________________________________________________ @{fg text} @{b}@{fg shadow}@{bg shine} Directory Opus5 buttons @{bg background}@{fg text}@{ub} =================================== @{b}Player Buttons:@{ub} Graphic Buttons, similar to a CD-PLAYER, makes the row of buttons available Opusmpega_image. They can create own player buttons with the opus button bank editor, e.g. with colored buttons. The instruction are transmitted to OpusMPEG by Arexx, by means of the scriptes Play-MPx.dopus5. @{b}Demo button bank:@{ub} For MPEG Player, demo button bank under the name mpegplayer_default is installed to DOpus5:Buttons. They can transfer the button @{b}MPEG sound player@{ub} if necessary to own button banks or the user menu. Normally this Button will not become needed, it the available Play Button of the tool border and the PopUp menu option play used. @{u}By drag & drop:@{uu} Select they in the menu of DOpus5 [buttons/load...]; click they in the data requester the file mpegplayer_default.
