- A few notes on VideoStream:
-
- I hacked the avi decoder and other suppport stuff out of the xanim 2.60
- code, and I'm sure there's alot of unnecessary junk still in there. Feel
- free to clean it up on your own.
-
- Some avi formats aren't supported by xanim and so aren't supported here.
- Most likely the video window won't appear in these cases, but maybe the
- app will crash.
-
- You'll need to build the VideoStream application and the avi and mpg
- decoders separately, then put the decoders inside the app wrapper
- (VideoStream.app) so the application can find it. Compile using -O4
- for best results.
-
- Those people running on Pentium or PA-RISC hardware may find the animation
- plays rather quickly (based on the fact that it's just about as fast as you'd
- want it to be on my 486DX266). To solve this, hack VideoStream to incorporate
- timed entry support (harder) or put in a call to usleep after NXPing in
- -runAgain (easier).
