For example: 2x ZOOM: mplayer -x 2 -y 2 test.mpg 800x600: mplayer -x 800 -y 600 test.mpg [default values are still configurable at compile-time, see config.h] - TV project (not finished) codebase added (see tvision.c, or: make tvision) mplayer v0.09: Dec 5 2000 Beta release [same as 0.09-pre3] - version changed in the files - docs updated mplayer v0.09-pre3: Dec 3 2000 bugfix test-release, X11 support testing - fixed the if [ -z $pparam ] bug in ./configure [Christian Birchinger] - many changes in AVI seek code, resulting near-perfect seeking now! current method calc absolute audio position, so with VBR audio it doesn't work yet... - avip: Xv support (YUY2 image format) - avip: X11 support (24 & 32 bpp only, BGR format) I need a very fast 15->16bpp converter for 16bpp support... anyone helps? mplayer v0.09-pre2: bugfix test-release - removed unnecessary code from libmpeg2/header.c Walken told me that standard mpg/vob streams must NOT use framerate and bitrate extension... and the ext. id check is done by the caller. - CRC support to mp3lib's mpeg audio layer-2 decoder thanks for bugreport & testfile to Samson mplayer v0.09-pre1: Dec 1 2000 bugfix test-release - imported new libmpeg2 files (under testing...) - GL renderer flickering bug fixed (MMX missing emms() between yuv2rgb and glTexSubImage(), bug triggered by new Utah-GLX code) [thanks for Christian Birchinger] mplayer v0.08: Nov 27 2000 Index support, avi seeking, DLL loader fix, compilation fixes - Added support for chunk index usage (disable with -noidx option) - Removed code optimization flags from loader/Makefile because it segfaults if compile optimized code (it does some hacks with pointers, maybe the reordered code confuses it) - added new tool called aviparse (read and check avi file structure) - indexed and raw chunk info comparing, bad chunks dropped - termcap usage is optional (for those debian users without termcap) - #if HAVE_* fixed (to #ifdef HAVE_*) - ./configure supports new /proc/cpuinfo (2.4.0-test11) - sse is called 'sse' again - 'flags' field renamed to 'features' - Xv benchmark results added to DOCS/SPEED - avi seeking (and other goodies, pause etc) implemented no PTS resync after seek yet. - default video_out driver changed from 'mga' to the first available driver new driver priority: mga_vid, opengl, x11 mplayer v0.07: Nov 21 2000 Easier compile - Added Pontscho's ./configure script (it's modified a lot) - Updated makefiles, and tested a lot :) - Updated DOCS/INSTALL mplayer v0.06: Nov 20 2000 Better codec selection - avi audio&video codec selection moved to new codecs.c file, loader/driver.c and loader/afl.c modified for this - yuv support fixed, codecs.c setup flags to handle yuv properly yuv works fine with divx, mpeg4, cvid, and upside-down iv50 - DOCS/INSTALL updated - DOCS/SPEED updated, DivX benchmarks added mplayer v0.05: Nov 18 2000 Merged with MPEGplayer 0.90pre6, first public release of AVI player - code merged with mpegplayer, new Makefile, some small modifications - docs updated and moved to DOCS mplayer v0.04: Nov 17 2000 YUV (yuy2) support with divx 3.11 dll, some code cleanup, preview-release mplayer v0.03: Nov 14 2000 mplayer v0.01: Nov 11 2000 first preview version based on new MPEGplayer's codebase. it contains the win32 loader from avifile, and can decode divx 3.11 video. mpg12play v0.9-v0.95pre5: Oct 21-Nov 2, 2000 Mpeg codec was libmpeg2 (mpeg2dec) by Aaron Holtzman & Michel Lespinasse. It's great, optimized very fast C code with perfect image quality and 100% MPEG standard conformance. mpg12play v0.5-v0.87: Sep 28-Oct 20, 2000 Mpeg codec replaced with DVDview by Dirk Farin, it was a great stuff, but it was slow and was written in C++ (I hate C++!!!) mpg12play v0.1-v0.3: Sep 22-25, 2000 The first try, hacked together in a half hour! I've used libmpeg3 from www.heroinewarrior.com up to the version 0.3, but there were image quality and speed problems with it.
