3- I also had this crazy idea of streaming animations in anim format to amiga webbrowsers but I guess that would need streaming support wich anim format doesn't have right ?
All standard Amiga .anim formats support streaming that is why they can all play direct from HD. Remember Walker.anim? It played direct from floppy. I think it preloaded 90% of its anim to RAM thogh
What about having a program do it on the server and on the Amigaside. I probably won't even try to do it, it's just an idea for now.
I thought about adding HAM8 .jpg viewing and .anim viewing to Ibrowse several years ago. Its not that its hard its just that many webviewing people refuse to use AGA these days so I didn't bother. It would have been GREAT in 1994-96!
How would it compare to say a flash animation compressionwise ?
Terrible.
Flash uses programming commands to move images around. This provides massively better compression for the types of anims that you typically see flash doing.
