`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.

Improvements in version 2.3 (30 KB): Fixed bugs in AllocRaster(); some WB games like VChess, MineRunner, ... were saying there was not enough memory (reported by Luca "Hexaae" Longone) A lot of small enhancements, minor speedups to some gfx functions and bugfixes AllocRaster() patch causes probelms with games like Quake68k and BloodNet AGA, now fixed (reported by Luca "Hexaae" Longone) WritePixel() bug that causes system freezing with Octamed SoundStudio when using its Synthetic Sound Editor (reported by Luca "Hexaae" Longone) ENV:FAllocRasterExcludeList can contain a list of tasks to be excluded from AllocRaster() chip to fast memory promotion. I've to do a better implementation for the task exclusion of AllocRaster() patch Added patches for non FBlit systems: BltBitMap(), Draw(), BltClear().
