Re: Paletted Textures
Thanks for the detailed explanation! I had wanted to experiment some using paletted textures but never managed to find the time to figure out how they work. and a YUV422 format (which is probably used for videos - I know of no homebrew that uses it). I am pretty sure that DCDivX uses the YUV422 form...

Re: Trying to make a Dreamcast Mappy playback library
Also Dreamcast SDLMappy port setups SDL the screen like: /* Set the video mode */ screen = SDL_SetVideoMode(Screen_w, Screen_h, Screen_bpp, SDL_HWSURFACE&SDL_DOUBLEBUF|SDL_HWPALETTE); SDL_HWSURFACE means 'Create the video surface in video memory'. Does that mean the PVR? If it does then when co...

Re: Trying to make a Dreamcast Mappy playback library
compiler error. pvr_ptr_t is basically a typedefe'd void* and I can't use arithmetic with those. I think you can fix it by doing something like... void swap_and_load(uint8 *src, pvr_ptr_t dst, int width, int height) { int bytes = width * height * 2, i; uint8 *dest = (uint8 *)dst; for(i = 0; i < byt...

Re: Trying to make a Dreamcast Mappy playback library
That was actually ported by Will Sams. My projects are hosted on his site, but most (or all?) of the SDL examples there were ported by Will.BB Hood wrote:I know there already exists a dreamcast port of SDLMappy by OneThirty8 (http://www.storm-studios.net/DCsamples.aspx)

Re: Where to start with a DC homebrew
In my experience with SDL latest port, it works decently, it has its flaws but works quite well if you don't want to push the hardware at its maximum, if you want do push it you should use KOS, but even with that you won't be able to do it, KOS just takes too much memory if it's a simple game then ...

Re: Secret Maryo Chronicles
Isn't Secret Maryo Chronicles written in C++? I didn't think the DC supported that particular language. Of course, it's been a while since I paid any attention. KOS is written in C, but that doesn't prevent programmers from using C++ in their programs. Some of the add-on libraries were written in C...

Re: PCEcast source?
I'm not sure if it supports iso/mp3 images, but the one iso/wav I tried worked pretty good, although I'd think mp3 would be less resource intensive. MP3 would require less disc space, but would require more processing time than an uncompressed wav file. Does that mean that iso/wav would be faster t...

Re: Wanting to join the dreamcast scene
Vista should probably work, but I actually prefer my Linux system for these things. If you want to develop in C or C++ you can use your Ubuntu system if you want. You really don't need anything too fancy--if you're comfortable with Linux and typing at the command line a little, you should be able to...

Re: VC/DC 0.2 released.
Thanks for the tests! The KVCD notch quanization matrix with a standard VCD resolution should work great. A 640x480 vid is probably going to be an issue even at low bitrates because it's still a lot more pixels to draw, convert to uyvy, and copy to the PVR than the resolution you'll find on a standa...

Sounds interesting, but I don't feel like tossing a disc into the trash if I don't have to. So..., anyone know if this will play ".m2v" with audio? ".m2v" typically indicates an MPEG-2 elementary video stream with no audio. It will play MPEG-2 video with audio, but it won't play...
