Long Description
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Short: PhotoCD viewer/converter (for AGA)
Author: Guenther@studbox.uni-stuttgart.de
Uploader: Guenther@studbox.uni-stuttgart.de
Type: gfx/show
PhotoCDAGA is a viewer/converter for pictures in the PhotoCD format. It is
based on the sources of the program "hpcdtoppm" written by Hadmut Danisch.
Advantages of PhotoCDAGA:
- high picture quality gained by using the overskip mode and map-files
(probably better than with all other programs)
- it does not cost you anything
- complete source code is included, it can be compiled with all C compilers on
the Amiga
- high speed (it is compiled with gcc 2.6.3, a part of it is written directly
in assembly language)
- saving in ppm-format is possible to allow conversion into other picture
formats
(e.g. to IFF-ILBM with ppm2AGA or to JPEG with cjpeg)
In the NETPBM package you can find converters for almost all formats.
(Aminet: gfx/pbm)
Disadvantages: (sorry)
- needs lot of memory
- not very comfortable (shell command)
- resolutions higher than Base (512x768) are not supported
(you have to use hpcdtoppm, the original, in this case)
