What's New ?
------------
2.05 (20/04/200
- Added screenshot future.
- Removed warnings for various AV's, due to complaints (Some av's saw it as a thread, because its a illegal program, just as if you download a copyrighted movie.)
- Special thanks to [JYMA]
2.04 (14/01/200
- New compiler creates faster code
- MMX Decoder: 25 FPS in PAL color on a celeron 333 (MMX code by Ewald Snel)
2.03 (21/10/2007)
- Fixed bug in improved PAL decoder
- Option to disable double buffering & DirectX Scaling (slow videocards)
2.02 (13/10/2005)
- New improved PAL decoder (thanks to Ewald Snel)
- New auto lock methode (Start Of Image): use the arrow keys to
adjust the image position and then press 'L'. It works best when you
move the image slowly to the left. As soon as you see a vertical blue
line at the start of the image, press the 'L' key.
If it doesn't work the first time, press 'L' and try again.
- Press F1 to see help about the hot keys. This information is
decoder-mode specific
- Press 'S' to toggle unencrypted analog sound mode
- Press 'R' to dump the raw image data to rawdata.bmp. You can try to
write a program to convert this data to a nice TV image. If it looks
good, mail me the (C/C++) code and I will include it in this program.
Contact me if you need more information.
2.01 (13/09/2000)
- Faster PAL color mode (>20 FPS fullscreen Celeron 333). Use 'C' to switch
to the old PAL color mode
- 'T': toggle test register
- Better vertical lock
- Snapshot mode
- Snapshots mode takes a snapshot every second (you can change this delay in
the config file)
2.00 (31/08/1999):
- New user interface
- Config file to save most settings
- Windowed (16 bit or 32 bit color) or fullscreen (800x600 16 bit color)
- 'Always on top' option
- Scalable window (uses hardware acceleration if available)
- 'Aspect ratio' option
- 'Force vertical lock search' option
- F5/F6: decrease/increase brighness
- You can still use the cursor keys to adjust the PLL value
1.01:
- It's possible to select CANCEL at startup
- Bug: SHIFT didn't work properly with arrow keys
- Resetting BTxxx at startup
- Default PLL frequency
- 'White cross' polarity check mode uses the white '+' on the screen
to detect polarity changes (select with F7). I know it's a bit cheating,
but it works very well.
- You can use F5 to toggle pause mode
- You can _still_ use LEFT/RIGHT/UP/DOWN to adjust the PLL frequency
Use F8 to disable auto lock mode.
- Starting ccrypt before starting a TV program doesn't crash
your computer anymore (It works for me)
- Decode mode "Averaging 2" added
1.00
- New FKEY commands
- F1 is help
0.3:
- color decoding works very well
