- MPEG2P11.ZIP (c) 1994 by PHADE Software Wed Mar 16 10:16:01 PST 1994
- ======================================================================
-
- This is the MPEG to PPM converter running under DOS. Its based
- on the MPEG-decoder called "mpeg_play" by the Berkeley Research
- Group. The basic idea was coming from the PPM-patch by Jef
- Poskanzer. Many thanks to both.
-
- It was compiled with Gnu's DOS-port of their GCC-compiler,
- called DJGCC Version 2.4.1 and NDMAKE Version 4.5. So please
- read the GNU-Licence-file 'LICENCE.GNU'.
-
- The DOS executable in this distribution is named MPEG2PPM.EXE
- and there is a batch-file called MPEG2PPM.BAT for those that
- are not familiar with the DJGCC-package. The final extracted
- PPM-files can be displayed or converted with f.e. DISP160.ZIP.
- They are in 24-bit-format.
-
-
- SHAREWARE
- ---------
-
- MPEG2PPM is inexpensive shareware. If you are continuing using
- it after a 30 day trial-period, please send a letter containing
- the filled and signed registration-form and the little donation
- of 10 $ or 15 DM in cash to the adress below.
-
- The you will receive a PASSWORD enabling you to encrypt the
- full-licenced version shipped in the archive FULLMPEG.ZIP using
- the command 'pkunzip -spassword fullmpeg.zip'. This will
- overwrite the shareware version of MPEG2PPM.
-
- ATTENTION: The dots the shareware version of MPEG2PPM produces
- are just delay, to force you to register.
-
- ATTENTION: A registration is recommended for commercial use.
-
- ATTENTION: The full-licenced version is restricted to a local
- area netword (company) or a privat single host.
-
- Please keep me up to date with everything thats new about MPEG
- by sending new source-code, utils, documents concerning MPEG-I
- or MPEG-II to the e-mail-adress below.
-
-
- NEEDS
- -----
-
- Version 1.1 of MPEG2PPM is now recompiled with a newer version
- of DJGCC, the executable is now running under DPMI (so even in
- a Windows-DOS-Box), but still needs at least a 386-machine.
-
- The Gnu-environment-executable 'GO32.EXE' has to be somewhere
- in the PATH. If running on a 386, the GNU-387-emulationfile
- 'EMU387' has to be, where the environment variable GO32 is
- pointing to, so if the emu-file is in D:\LIB enter:
-
- set GO32=emu d:/lib/emu387
-
- and then just start the program by typing
-
- MPEG2PPM ifa.mpg

- CHANGES
- -------
-
- Please do not recommend any big changes or any new versions
- of this program. Its working all right, doing its job and
- there is really NO need in enhancing it. But, if it should
- not work on any DOS-system, please report it with a complete
- description to the e-mail-adress below.
-
-
- That should do, Phade
