AmiDog's Movie Player v1.30
On November 20th, version 1.30 of the Movie Player
has been released. Changes from the previous version:
- reworked shell user interface
- completely rewritten AmigaOS code
- MPEG: VLayer support
- MPEG: some optimizations in the decoder
- MPEG: faster YUV->RGB converting
- MPEG: greyscale window on Workbench with 15/16/24 bit
- MPEG: 2-width HAM about 40% faster
- MPEG: greyscale playback about 20% faster
- QT: index creation many hundred times faster
- QT/AVI: CVID decoder bugged in v1.26
- QT/AVI: YUY2 decoder playing movies upside down
- bugfix: a char array being copied to unallocated memory
The QT parser has some bugs in the playback code, and this version is for now
missing a GUI. If you want one, you can get one from version 1.25/1.26.

Fred Fish in gg-ML
|
Coordinator wanted for AmigaOS Geek Gadgets
Since Fred Fish is lacking the time and motivation for some time now to look after the
AmigaOS version of Geek Gadgets, a new coordinator is wanted for the Amiga version.
If you are interested in taking this job, you should have good organisational
and communicative talents, being an active member of the Amiga community, and have enough
time to look after all aspects of AmigaOS GG.
Additionally, someone is wanted who can generate a new snapshot on regular basis.
For this, an Amiga 68060 would be nice, since a 68040 takes several days for compiling all
sources, so creating a snapshot can take several weeks. Even while there is no need for
manual editing most of the time.

MPEG+Sound module project for CV64/3D
The Cybervision64/3D offers a S3-Scenic-Highway (LPB) bus. This allows for adding useful
expansions like a MPEG decoder or such. While the hardware is readily available, the
needed Amiga software is missing. Those interested in writing such software, can get
further informations about the project from the title link, or write an e-mail to
rob@vgr.com.
