- Short: XAnim: Avi/Quicktime/FLI/FLC/IFF/GIF/MPEG/ etc..player..
- Author: Mark Podlipec/Terje Pedersen (Amiga part)
- Uploader: terjepe@stud.cs.uit.no
- Type: gfx/show
-
- It uses the chunky stuff from Morten Eriksen (thanks Morten!),
- which may cause problems on some gfx cards.
-
- setenv X11/askmode 1 : xanim will pop up an asl screenmode requester
- before opening the screen. (this is wb2.1+ only!)
-
- This is improved somewhat and will probably work better with gfxcards.
-
- setenv X11/gfxcard 1 : xanim will not use the chunky stuff from Morten
- but WritePixelArray and other system functions. If the program loads
- the anim but crashes horribly after opening the screen, try it!
-
- setenv X11/usepub Workbench : xanim will open a window on the workbench
- and display the anim there!
-
- setenv X11/debug 1 : prints a couple of debug lines..
-
- set stack to at least 20000! (it doesn't do any stackcheck!)
-
- If you are trying to run this on a non AGA machine and
- no gfx board either then the anims may not look too good!
- (32 colors max when running 256 color anims usually looks
- somewhat poor) But you will probably get a general idea as
- to how it might look in 256 colors! Also not running on wb3.0+
- it might easily crash if you are unlucky!
