`01.Jun.2004` whoosh (ANF)	AFPL-Ghostscript 8.13 ported for i686-AROS Ghostscript is for viewing + converting + printing PS & PDF files. This port is a recompile of my 68k port of AFPL Ghostscript 8.13 to a new host: i686-AROS. Everything seems to function, except exactly 1 viewer functions which is the truecolour WB PS + PDF viewer. The other 5 viewers don't function currently, this could be an endianess problem: this being the first port of my work to a little endian architecture. The non functioning viewers just produce an empty window or the correct image but with wrong colours. Anyway you can view PS + PDF in truecolour on a WB window, with correct image + correct colours, this is the most useful of the 6 possible viewers. I will be attempting ports of the same program to other variants of AmigaOS, I have already begun towards another well known variant of AmigaOS. If Turboprint gets ported to x86-AROS then the Turboprint devices of this port may then become of use. To get an idea of the speed, if I install this port entirely to RAM, ie GS, GS813Data: GS813Fonts: GS813Resource: all in ram:, then converting the standard example annots.pdf to jpeg takes 4 to 5 seconds, i.e. "ram:gs -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=jpeg -sOutputFile=ram:annots%d.jpg ram:annots.pdf" (all on one line). RAM based is really unbelievably fast, faster than "dir ram:"! However if installed on CD it takes much longer, not so impressive, modern PCs have so much memory that installing to RAM is quite a good idea. I don't know if the port will run on i386, i486, i586 machines, let me know either way and if necessary I will do other versions, it should take 3.5 hours to build each of these on WinUAE. The program was ported on WinUAE using my recent port to 68k host of gcc-3.3.1 for x86-AROS. (snx) [News message: 01. Jun. 2004, 13:48] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version]
`01.Jun.2004` Amigaworld.net (Website)	MPEG player: RiVA V0.50 released Stephen Fellner released v0.50 of "RIVA", a shareware mpeg player for 68k based Amiga systems. New in this version: Added Window display mode to allow playback in a window on systems with no PIP/VLayer. Enter can be used to toggle between window and fullscreen during playback Added support for the BGRA32 colour format. PC graphics cards (like GeForce) use this mode, so UAE users can play videos on a truecolor screen (or in a window on a TrueColor Workbench) on those cards (snx) (Translation: cg) [News message: 01.
