Yeah, i hate posts like this that say "new version" and not what's in it. So you download it, and it does something like correcting a spelling mistake in the title bar ;-)

But not in this case though. I rooted around on the site and found this:

"1.6 Most biggest update ever.... So:

@ Cluke

WOW! DiVX support! :-o

[SilvrDrgn]

This looks like an awesome piece of software!!  I couldn't figure out the registration process.  How does one do that?

[ikir]

I registred my copy years ago because i found a special coupon on an italian amiga magazines :-)

[SilvrDrgn]

Well, I'm still trying to figure it out.  Maybe it's so simple that it's elluding me.  Price I saw is $10.  That's damn cheap for such a program being supportive of so many formats!

[ikir]

Yeah! A great program! :-)

If i play a divx video on my 060 my amiga crash after clicking "play" during the loading...... :-(  :-(

DIVX on an 060? That's sure asking alot! :-o I'm affraid you'd need at least a CSPPC for that.

Heck I just trying playing a DIVX on a k6-2 400Mhz Wintendo box the other day and it was choppy. :-x

I play divx on a p233

Divx codec support 68k.... :-(  :-?

[Opi-Poi]

Does anybody know if it works for PIV-MooVId?
Can't see anything in the readme,guide or website.:-(

Sorry for the "Lots Of New Stuff" teaser, but there was LOTS of new stuff.  Also, just got an e-mail from Laszlo.  He is going to be posting an upgrade for MooVid Pro in a week or so.  The present one only works with the registered shareware version. :-x

It's funny that using Frogger DivXs play a lot smoother than MPEGs in my system.
Before this release I think I read a report from the author saying that he achieved around 18fps with a small divx (320x200) in a 060.

[Opi-Poi]

An update to PIV-MooVId will be released soon.
Thanks Laszlo. :-)
