Visage - or suggestions for quick and efficient JPEG viewer
« on: April 04, 2007, 08:51:38 PM »
Hi,

I'm trying to look through lots of jpegs on my 1200 060 Mediator system. I have PicShow installed which gives a very nice result, but I want something a bit quicker and more streamlined I think. Visage seems about right and I've set it up to use my screenmode Voodoo320x200 8bit, This would be fine, but for some reason it doesn't display the bottom 25% of the picture - and yes I am scrolling down with the pointer. I have tried it 800x600 mode but it still loses the bottom. I've not been successful getting another viewer to support this mode.

Any idea what I'm doing woring with Visage or suggestions for a more suitable viewer?

Thanks and Happy Easter to all (regardless of faith or lack of it).     :-)

Hi,

I use Visage and think its a good pic viewer.

If you multi click pic files it will pre-load the next pic into a Buffer to show instantly when you click for the next pic or hit the space bar.

Try setting the tooltype "SCALE to re-size the pic to fit your reoloution.

I use the tooltype SCALE on my AGA and PIV Amigas.

I just tried on my A4000/060, running a cybervision 64 with Picasso 96 software. Running 1024x768 16bit

I ran Picshow screen (on its own screen, and sat it to preload 5 images and keep 5 in cache). Worked faster than Visage on my system..

The viewers I use are:
Visage
Viewtek
FastJpegAGA (fjpeg_aga)
FastView

I also use Mostra for certain things but that is not what you want.

I haven't tried these but you should:
CyberShow
CyberView
SlideshowHW
SuperView (Sview5, Andreas Kleinert)
Wanna try a wonderfull strategy game with lots of handdrawn anims,
Magic Spells and Monsters, Incredible playability and lastability,
English speech, etc. Total Chaos AGA

Hi, I tried SCALE but it makes the pics too small, I need to be able to scroll. Any thoughts?

Really?

Hmmmm.... could you tell me what arguments/tooltypes you used. I got a bit confused with the Picshow docs. Thanks.
