Playing video files under Classic Workbench.
Hello everyone. Does anyone have any idea how to play video files under Classic Workbench? Obviously low res videos. I'd like to know which is the best software to use, and which video formats or codecs are supported, or if there is a pack to install.
My setup is: Classic Workbench 3.1 030 / 35Mhz 128Mb ram Thank you so much! Last edited by Hache; 28 March 2014 at 01:02. Reason: Adding some info |

for mpeg's I use Riva:http://aminet.net/package/gfx/show/RiVA . This is the registered full version
Although i have used frogger http://aminet.net/package/gfx/show/Frogger . Download the the key files as well, aminet. For AVI I use Action, but this is on AmigaOS 3.9, I think it was called MooVid for OS 3.1. On my 50 mhz 68060 with CV64 I play 720p @ 50 frames/per second, in 7 channel surround sound. Can't do 1080p yet. Might need to update the maths libraries. |

Yeah makes sure you have FastExec and rom2fast installed. Went from 360i to 720p.
I've also overclocked the CV64 from 50 MHZ to 57 Mhz, to squeeze a few more frames out of it. You might have to boot with no startup if you only have 8 MB RAM though. |
