Amiga default digital video format
« on: August 12, 2004, 08:44:31 AM »
What is considered the default Amiga digital video format?

By OS3.9 standard, and by OS4 standard?

I was just wondering - if you want to target an animation or a digital video file so that most or all Amiga users are capable of playing it, what format should it be in?

Is there a codec available on Windows so that digital video editors can convert easily to an Amiga animation/video format?

Since there isn't any video products for the Amiga anyway, the answere is, there isn't one!

On the classic Amigas, the VideoToaster was the top video software. You can d/l source code from http://www.openvideotoaster.org

I think MPEG video is the most generically standard across platform. However if we are talking Old Amiga. Years ago we had IFF_ANIM but it was a limited standard. Commodore came out with a streaming format called CDXL which was very much like video...
