- Recommended Settings of ARMovie$PrefBigMode
-
- It is worth experimenting with ARMovie$Interpolate also; interpolation will use up more
- CPU time to paint an image. The default value of ARMovie$PrefBigMode is "13;49;28" which
- is not ideal unless you have a type 1 monitor, or you only play 'small' movies.
-
- RISC OS 2, 3; VIDC1 Machines:
-
- --type 0 monitor--
-
- All machines: 13
-
- Note: adding another mode which was basically mode 13 with eigx=eigy=0 would allow larger
- movies to be played.
-
- --type 1 monitor--
-
- All machines: 13;28
-
- --type 3 or 4 monitor--
-
- //obtain mode extension module from Customer Services which provides 320x480x8bpp screen mode
- //selected as mode 49. Otherwise type 1 state for ARMovie$PrefBigMode will work with the
- //monitor selecting a 'letterbox' mode, or use 28 only.
-
- All machines: 49;28
-
- --with CC ColourCard or StateMachine ColourBurst/G8/G16
-
- //contact CC or StateMachine. Default state will work. Cards are capable of 320x256x16bpp on
- //type 0/1 monitor and of 320x480x16bpp on type 3/4: appropriate screen mode numbers can be
- //put into ARMovie$PrefBigMode.

-
- (note that the 240x352 mode does not allow interpolation, but is very useful
- in small memory machines although a movie won't quite fill the screen. The trailing
- modes with ex0ey0 allow for very large movies)
