Short: Videolayer picture viewer (1.6)
Author: Stephan Rupprecht <stephan.rupprecht@gmx.de>
Uploader: stephan.rupprecht@gmx.de
Type: gfx/board
Requires: cgfx v3/4 and cv64/3d or p96 and piv/cv64/3d
CyberPiPView is another picture viewer with usage of the
datatypes. This program uses the videolayer feature of a
cv64/3d/piv to display pictures in 16bit no matter which resolution
the current screen has (<=8bit, 15/16/24bit). This means
that any picture can be shown in up to 65536 colors even
if the current screen just has 8 colors. The gfx processors
automatically scales the picture to fit on the screen. When
the window gets resized, the picture will be scaled, too.
HISTORY
1.0 first public release
1.1 now checks if a cv64/3d is installed (R. Reiswig),
didn't close libs when ReadArgs() failed,
window border no longer covers parts of the pictures,
added COLORKEY option (see known problems section),
DELAY option.
1.2 removed some enforcer hits
1.3 now works with p96 picture.dt (forgot to get a new
bitmap pointer after remapping).
1.4 now works with p96 cgxvideo emulation, filerequester
remembers last path, changed handling of window.
1.5 newer releases of cgxvideo.lib work buffered for both Z2
and Z3 machines. This slows down CyberPiPView, fixed
that problem by changing the way the layer is filled up.
1.6 newer releases of p96 seem to have a different LibID string
for their cgfx emulation. That's why cyberpipview failed
to work with a piv. Fixed that by removing the check for
a specific gfx-board <reported by several users>. compiled
with gnuc.
