- Changes since V1.11
- - improved recognition of truncated files. Due to a bug in asyncio 39.1 the
- file has to be reopened to avoid seek errors.
- - CyberAVI now handles files with wrong audio header chunk sizes. This lead
- to seek errors before.
- - added a workaround for wrong saved animations by MainActor 1.55. This
- program does *real* nonsense! Thanks to Béla Schramm for the hint.
- - when doing playback on public screens the animation's filename is displayed
- in CyberAVI's window instead of "CyberAVI"
- - fixed a bug that lead to crashes due to senseless size information for AVIs
- with just one huge audio sample
- - found a new type of YUV 2:1:1 animations. I don't know if it is correct but
- I named them "Component Video (YUV2) Type B", because they coded are almost
- exactly the same as normal YUV2 animations.
- - added support for YUV9 video encoding with 9 bits (although this is really
- 16 bits)
- - added support for YUV12 Planar MPEG video encoding. Thanks to Zer0-X
- <zrx.oms@sci.fi> for these files.
- - added option CMAP to allow use of external color palettes (especially for
- dithering)
- - fixed endless audio playback for one-sample-animations in loop mode
- - added option SCREENMODEID to select a screenmode via command line instead
- of requester or BestModeID(). Requested by Robert from Poland (sorry, I
- don't know you second name :)
- - improved recognition of one-sample-animations a bit, but this is still not
- bullet-proof
- - Argue 1.4 is now included in CyberAVI's archive, because for some unknown
- reasons it has been deleted from Aminet and many people asked me to include
- it.
