From: "Avi Cohen Stuart" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
The margi dvdplay.exe doesn't need that much memory.
The whole dvd play with the margi works with kernel streams that connect
'pins' together. The app says 'play' and a whole orgestra of kernel
thingies start to push a lot of bytes into the margi which does the HW
decoding and streaming it back via Zoomed Video into the graphical card
memory without the processor intervening.
It took me some time to find the option to enable the ZV port in W98SE.
which is in the advanced setting for the Yamaha volume control.
The only issue with the margi is: how do I get the DVD stream with a
sustained of 5Mbytes/s into the margi. Don't need much RAM for this,
only speed.
It works also under linux 2.6 but the X application needs to be enhanced
a bit more but menus, display etc work.
Avi.
(Trust me: i know the margi dvd-to-go inside out...)
Do you know why it's been so fincky and unstable for me in both W2K and
W98SE Avi?
