A few years back, it was easy to find movie clips and other media that played well on OS 3.9. I registered Riva for mpegs
Good move. It's the fastest 68k player.
and MooVid for AVIs & movs and was pleased with their performance. Now, it seems their codecs are out of date.
Not so good move as you have already saw. You should have registered FroggerNG which is better and supports more codecs.
Are there new Amiga players?
MPlayer for MorphOS is still under slow development but you need a PPC card and it's slower than frogger anyway.
I don't think that I have the horsepower for Frogger.
Yes, it's true that even the fastest 68060 can't cope with newer avi codecs like DivX. They are very CPU demanding and you can't do something about it, except of buying a CPPC.
