Photon is very fast indeed. But (same question for PhotoQL) does it takes care and maintains proportions ? I think pixel shape is different in said 512x256 and 800x600. And why is there only 1024x600 and 1024x768 screen in QPC2 (I think 1024x512 is best to preserve standard screen ratio) Claude

I forgot the positioning of the Blue bits. That would mean another16 bit 64k table.a0 points to RG table and a1 to B.m33RGBmove.w(a4)+,d2 get B0 move.w(a4)+,d3 get RG move.w(a0,d3.w),d3 use lookup table to sort RG move.w(a1,d2.w),d2 also sort

Hi Dave Just a thought on speeding things up. How about using a 16 bit lookup table to rearrange the red and green bits some like this: m33RGBmove.w(a4)+,d2 get B0 move.w(a4)+,d3 get RG move.w(a0,d3.w),d3 use lookup table to sort RG andi.w

A stated in the last QL2D, new release of Photon (from Dave Westbury) as found on DJ's web page is fast (for QL hardware) : on QPC2 it takes less than 20seconds to display a 200k file. Compared (not a criticism) to PhotoQL v0.18 (from Roberto Porro) found on Thierry Godegroy'site it is 5 or 6
