CyberAVI is Copyright (c)1996 by Thore Boeckelmann.
Changes since V1.5:
- added support for ADPCM 4 bit mono samples
- CyberAVI could hang if playback was aborted very very early. This is fixed
now.
- again removed some problems with sound playback
- SetPatch 43.x is not needed anymore, but it is supported if available. With
SetPatch 43.x installed playback is slightly faster, because no additional
copy of video data is necessary
- switching off mouse pointer during playback caused Enforcer hits. Thanks to
Alexander Wild for reporting that bug.
- fixed some bugs when pressing keys without function
- WINDOW tooltype was not recognized if started from Workbench
- finished Installer script
- when playing more than one animation with and without sound at a time
CyberAVI could do Wait() for non-existing signals which lead to deadlocks.
This is fixed now.
- audio.device became very confused when stopping sound without aborting
pending requests. This lead to deadlocks before, too.
- CyberAVI has now an Argue interface. At least Argue V1.3 is needed.
- again fixed some bad bugs when playing an animation with sound and loop
- added GRAY option for doing playback with grayscale palette
- added some checking when reading the index with corrupted offsets. Thanks
to Chris Longmore for his "strange" animations.
