new ixemul V62.1 for 68k.

[ami_stuff]

I compiled FFplay with libnix a long time ago, but it crahed. I have no motivation to spend my time to debug what is wrong, after all this would change nothing for me, except that FFplay would use no ixemul.lib :afro:

For example if you have path "/foobar" will it work right?

This will only work with progs when someone add a code to support paths like this. I added the code to FFplay, so something like this should work.

Dunno. I never tried. But then, ffmpeg is shitty Unix software.

These days we have only "shitty Unix software" on Amiga. Without this software Amiga couldn't even play DiVXs (MooviD also uses this "shit" -> libavcodec.library, the same FroggerNG (FFmpeg/XAnim) and I belive all of the rest PPC video players) :afro:

But still we have at least some people making a little extra effort and doing proper ports and not just recompilations, all that other junk you might as well run on linux.

You are welcome to do it better.

Why would anyone use ffplay on 68k?

If it's a real 68k, it is simply too slow, and if it's an emulated 68k, the host systems have much more capable native variants.

FFplay is a part of FFmpeg package - it's a bonus program. You must also remember that FFplay can play audio files like flac, wv, ra and all of the rest, not only videos plus it can show images saved to some exotic formats like jpeg2000. Also, on the real 68k I would use FFplay to see what is on the video if there is a need and no other video player support the file format or used codec. I belive it's still better to see something than nothing.

PS. When you install Amithlon there is no native variant, native variant is 68k program.
