-
- MoviePlayer 1.0a
- SetToIFF 1.0
- IFFToSet 1.0
-
- The files are supplied as file1, file2, ... , to convert these to the
- proper names type:
-
- "Execute ExecuteMe" from the CLI.
-
- All three applications are meant for use with MovieSetter 1.0 from Gold
- Disk Inc. MovieSetter 1.0 is available for $99.95 (US), for ordering
- information contact your local dealer or call 1-800-387-8192 (US)
- or 1-416-828-0913 (CANADA).
-
- MoviePlayer 1.0a
-
- Two minor bugs were found in MoviePlayer 1.0 which have been fixed.
- The -l (looping enable) and -o (overscan enable) command line options were
- always enabled in 1.0. In 1.0a, looping and overscan are defaulted to
- disabled when running from the CLI. The WorkBench equivelants work in 1.0.
-
- NOTE: MoviePlayer 1.0a is for NON-COMMERCIAL use only. To use MoviePlayer 1.0a
- in a commercial application, contact Gold Disk Inc.
-
- SetToIFF 1.0
-
- Once a set is created in MovieSetter, it can be a tedious affair to
- edit individual set images in other graphics programs, or to perform an
- external operation on an entire set (such as re-coloring). To simplify
- this type of editting, this program takes a set and splits it into
- individual IFF pictures, with set specific information (ie. registration
- marks) stored in a separate data file. Version 1.0 requires that the
- resulting pictures be placed in one directory. The program may be run
- either from the WorkBench or CLI.
-
- CLI Interface :
-
- SetToIFF [-d#] filename [filename...]
- -d# = # of bitplanes
- filename = set to split into IFF pictures (full name required
- including .set suffix)
-
- outputs: [filename].iff#, # = 1 .. number of set elements in set
- [filename].data, information to recreate set (including
- number of set elements, reg. marks, etc.)
-
- WorkBench Interface :
-
- Tool Types :
-
- DEPTH=# # of bitplanes
-
- To split a set(s) into images, click on the set(s) you wish to
- convert, while holding down the SHIFT key, and double-click on
- the SetToIFF icon (with the SHIFT key still held down). Icons for
- each element of each set will be created along with a data icon.
- This icon is an interface to IFFToSet. To recreate the set from
- the pictures, simply double-click on the data icon (clicking on
- the pictures is NOT necessary for the reverse case).
-
- IFFToSet 1.0
-
- This utility recreates a set from a group of pictures created by
- SetToIFF. It may not be used on an arbitrary group of IFF pictures,
- the SetEditor supplies that function suitably. All pictures and
- the .data file must exist in a single directory.
-
- CLI Interface :
-
- IFFToSet [-d#] filename [filename...]
- -d# = # of bitplanes
- filename = name of set to recreate (same as filename given to
- SetToIFF)
-
- WorkBench Interface :
-
- Tool Types :
-
- DEPTH=# # of bitplanes
-
- Simply double-clicking on the .data icon (the image is a reverse
- of the icon for SetToIFF) will recreate the set. Several sets
- may be recreated at once by extend selecting (selecting while holding
- down the shift key) and double-clicking on the last .data icon.
-
- General Notes:
-
- It is recommended that SetToIFF and IFFToSet be copied onto your working
- copy of MovieSetter, because the .data file's Default Tool is
- "MovieSetter:IFFToSet". If you are running from a hard-disk, use the
- CLI command Assign to attach "MovieSetter:" to the directory containing
- all MovieSetter related programs (see the AmigaDOS manual for more
- information on the CLI).
-
- Enjoy!
