- CyberQT is a fast QuickTime animation player for 020+ machines with AmigaOS 3.0
- or higher and a graphic board with CyberGraphX or AGA.

-
- minimum hardware requirements:
- -Amiga with AmigaOS 3.0 (V39)
- -MC68020
- -graphic board with CyberGraphX (eg. CyberVision64, Picasso II, Retina, etc)
- or AGA chipset
- -2MB of FastRAM, 512K of ChipRAM
-
-
- software requirements
- -CyberGraphX 2.21 or higher (if used with a graphic board)
- -asyncio.library V38 (included)
-
-
- recommended hardware requirements:
- -Amiga with AmigaOS 3.1 (V40)
- -MC68040 at 25MHz minimum
- -graphic board with CyberGraphX 2.21 or higher

- Changes since V1.0:
- - fixed a bug in RPZA decoder with AGA that produced wrong pixels/blocks of
- pixels
- - fixed "too slow video playback" when video timescale is not equal to anim
- timescale
- - fixed delayed reaction when changing playback speed
- - CVID depth 32 is now supported, too
- - added support for IMA4 audio compression. Unfortunately I was not able to
- test IMA4's stereo part because of no animation of that kind
- - improved handling of multi-track QTs
- - implemented SKIP option to skip delayed frames and keep audio playback
- synchronous
- - fixed sound loop bug when playing more than one animation at a time.
- Reported by Thomas Börkel and many other people.
- - improved error handling in "out of memory" situations
- - added support for KPCD video compression. Thanks to Lars Weigl for his NASA
- animation.
- - fixed bug that made playback stuck because of wrong calculated time offsets
- - fixed bug with wrong interpreted elst chunks
- - small speed improvement for KPCD
- - hopefully fixed last problems with screenmode selection.
- eg: 240x300 animations should be shown on a 640x480 screen instead of a
- 320x240 screen.
- - fixed some skippinig problems with "keyframe-only" QTs
- - fixed problems with TWOS 16bit stereo sound. SamplesPerChunk entry was
- misinterpreted as "bytes per chunk" instead of real "samples per chunk", so
- not enough data were read.
