Intro
=====
This is the third release of the first public domain MPEG viewer
for the Commodore Amiga. Please also read the file "README" for
some general information about this software.
This player needs at least a 68020 CPU (and 881 FPU). Compile
yourself if you need a 68000 version, or you might give Kamran
Karimi's Run68017 68020 emulation a try but I don't guarantee it
will work.
AmigaOS 2.04 or higher required. AmigaOS 3.0 recommended.
This player needs Markus Wild's ixemul.library. As this lib still
doesn't seem to exist on everyone's machines, I have included it
with this distribution. For the complete GCC distribution contact
your next FTP server.
And... NO, THIS PLAYER DOESN'T NEED X-WINDOWS!
Changes against V1.22 (second release):
* Release 1.23 (not released due to 2.01):
* - Dither mono & threshold now work (fast!)
* - New option: -saveiff framename_%d.iff (guess for what ;-)
* Saving currently forces screen mode. No support for 24 bit yet
* - Added new option: -amiga screen:mode/depth/width/height,
* reworked option dependancies
*
* Release 2.01 (Feb 12 1993):
* - Based upon the new 2.0 release of the mpeg player for UNIX
* - No need to enhance color allocation, as the new player
* allows to set the range values (ncolors = l_rng*cr_rng*cb_rng)
* - 24 Bit IFF save mode implemented
Source
======
There are two archives, one containing the binaries (and other
usefull stuff) and the other one containing the sources (split up
into original UNIX part plus special Amiga changes & extensions).
I included the necessary X11 header files (don't think, many
Amiga programmers have them around). The Makefile and code are
for Markus Wild's port of the famous GNU GCC C compiler (thanks
again, Markus!). Don't forget to build an amiga.lib version 39.x
for your GCC before trying to compile the code.
Famous last words
