- Program information
- -------------------
- akMPEG is a program that has been designed to play MPEG animations
- on CyberGfx or compatible systems with a 68040 or greater CPU.
-
- It allows two ways to replay animations:
-
- - in an overlay window on any kind of CyberGfx screen
- (requires cgxvideo.library and a graphics card capable of Overlay)
-
- - in a normal window on any kind of a 16/24 bit deep CyberGfx screen
-
- Please note, that conventional 8 bit screen displays (CyberGfx or AGA)
- are not supported due to speed reasons (the window will stay empty).
-
- With a 68040-25 CPU (on a CyberStormPPC/III) with quite some FAST RAM
- one may achieve ~7 FPS in Overlay mode (measured with CyberVision3D)
- and ~4 FPS in window mode. A 68060-50 or -66 may allow for realtime
- playing (although this has not been evaluated).
-
- The GUI is quite self-explaining:
-
- - PPC support can be switched on or off (when available)
- - B- and P-Frames may be skipped (default is "do not skip")
- - Overlay or 24 bit display is possible
-
- The MPEG players are external programs, that are run
- asynchroneously. So it is possible to play more than
- one animation at once.
-
- One may also start the two tools "mpOV" (overlay)
- and "mp24" (24 bit window) from Shell. The syntax
- can be requested by starting with "?" as the only
- parameter. It's the same for both programs:
-
- MP [-nop -nob] animfile.MPG
-
- That's it :-)
-
- BTW: In the unregistered version, MPEGs show vertical stripes.
