- Description:
-
- ReplayTools is a collection of PublicDomain programs which are designed to
- make your life a little easier if you work with Replay. It includes:
-
- * Decomp800 - 'LinePack' Replay compressor and decompressor.
- * Decomp802 - 'Movie 16:3' Replay compressor and decompressor.
- * CropReplay - reduce the size (in pixels) of a Replay movie.
- * GrabLarge - grab large movies with your Eagle card
- * Spr2Replay - convert sprites to Replay.
-
- CropReplay removes pixels from the border of a Replay movie. This is
- very useful if you have an Eagle card, as this sometimes produces a
- very ugly black border.
-
- GrabLarge allows you to grab a Replay movie in 320x256 pixels from
- your Eagle card. The movie is grabbed directly to RAM so there's
- a limit to the number of frames you can grab.
-
- Spr2Replay converts a list of sprite files to a Replay movie.
- The program only runs on Risc PCs, as it needs 15bpp sprite
- handling capabilities.
-
- Movie 16:3 is a Replay compressor and decompressor for 'real-world' frames,
- guaranteed to compress at least 16:3 (to 18% of the size of the uncompressed
- frame in 15bpp RGB). The compressor is compatible with other Replay
- compressors and Replay compressor frontends, eg. !AREncode or !RCompress, but
- can also be used on its own from the CLI.
