This is FlaskMPEG version 0.6 IDCT plug-in optimized for Pentium II. It includes fast high-quality x87 iDCT decoders by Miha Peternel, version 7 dated 2001-03-16. It includes a new x87 optimized reference IEEE-1180 iDCT decoder. Even MMX iDCT is optimized in this version. :) The reference decoder is so much faster in this release that you might not even want to touch other decoders. :) This plug-in works with FlaskMPEG 0.6 (www.flaskmpeg.net). Copy the file "Miha.idct.flask" to your FlaskMPEG directory. To use fast x87 decoder, you must enable configure iDCT: FlasK MPEG ->Options -> Global Project Options (Export Movie Settings) -> Video -> iDCT Options -> Auto Select <- switch to OFF -> iDCT Selection (choose one of the 3 new iDCT's) -> Miha's x87 Reference iDCT <- fast, reference quality -> Miha's x87 Fast iDCT <- faster, high quality -> Optimized MMX iDCT <- fastest, low quality Check out options0600.gif and idct0600.gif to see the positions of the switches. The difference of the Fast x87 iDCT with the reference decoder is only 1/256 of intensity in 1 out of every 6 million pixels. The Fast x87 iDCT decoder is practically the same high quality as the reference decoder and it's nearly as fast as the MMX optimized decoder !!! email: Miha.Peternel@kiss.uni-lj.si www: http://www.angelfire.com/art/mpeg/flask.html
