Unified NVidia Driver

Unified NVidia graphics driver, including support for RIVA TNT, Quadro, and GeForce graphics products. This unified graphics driver supports all existing NVidia graphics products. It is slated to replace the existing R5 RIVA TNT and RIVA 128 drivers. Supported products include: * RIVA TNT series, including TNT2, Ultra, Vanta, and Aladdin, * Quadro series, * GeForce series, including GeForce DDR, GeForce2, MX, GTS, and Ultra. Installation scripts are provided.

RIVA 128 support was not ready in time for this release, and has been disabled. This will be remedied in a future release. Though it has been tested as thoroughly as possible, this driver should be considered experimental.

NB: Use at YOUR OWN RISK and please check compatability with your hardware first.

Minimum System Requirements: Intel Version - requires R5.

DivX

The DivX Decoder plays movies encoded with the DivX ;-) codec. It is based on the MPEG4 format. DivX ;-) has nothing to do with the pay-per-view divx-system. The advantages over MPEG1 and MPEG2 are the small file size (1:10 compression), the quality of the sound (48 kHz) and movie.

Sound should be much smoother now with a new mp3-decoder-add-on (no more shell scripts) and an encoder is also included.

Minimum System Requirements: Requires BeOS R5.
