[News] Quickshots ANN.lu Posted on 23-Jan-2001 19:14 GMT by Christian Kemp 4 comments View flat View list Instead of moderating up a few articles I should have moved days ago, I'll keep them in the Unmoderated section and just provide links to them here, in case you didn't see them. 3ivX on Amiga a Reality, apparently, but quite frankly, with an Athlon 800 taking ten hours to encode an MPEG-4 from a DVD, I wouldn't want to do that task on a 200MHz PPC, never mind an 060. An item on Radio Free Virgin posting a fairly rude comment on the Amiga went off in a tangent in the comments section to discuss 2001's HAL9000. Hyperion Entertainment interview. A PowerPC based network appliance computer. OnePowerWeek, the news website for french-speaking people Tao in Japan apparently mentions the Amiga a lot, but since I didn't install Japanese language support, I can't really verify. List of all comments to this article Sorted by date, most recent at bottom Quickshots : Comment 1 of 4 ANN.lu Posted by Graham on 23-Jan-2001 23:00 GMT Regarding the Divx/3ivx stuff, playback is still different to encoding, and requires a CPU an order of magnitude less powerful. Still, unless you want to play back low res movies instead of decent quality movies, it will still jerk and be generally naff even on a 200MHz+ PPC. Still it would be nice to get this on the AmigaDE. When are they going to jazz up the AmigaDE desktop? I know they are working on the important underlying stuff at the moment before creating a good desktop environment, but they will have to release one soon...
