#92232 - 06/05/2002 17:55 code query
hardvark new poster Registered: 24/03/2002 Posts: 1	Im wanting to learn about programming the mpeg unit. I've dwnloaded the code tree and made it work, I can build kernels and they work. I patched the tree using all the patches off the empeg sight. While i was applying the patches I skimmed through them because I was inerested in seeing what was added, I saw something that puzzled me in the betea3-beta7 upgrade. Theres a lot of code in there tahts labelled 'composite'. It's not enabled in the standard kernel, if I enable it does it make video come out somewhere? Thanks for answering my questions anyone who knows. hardVark

At least it says composite and talks about empeg screen width and height, pixels and so on. I just can't make out why there is some mention of IDE in some variable (or was it function?) named. cu, sven _________________________ proud owner of MkII 40GB & MkIIa 60GB both lit by God and HiJacked by Lord

The project has nothing to do with Empeg/SB, or The code snippits have nothing to do with the Empeg/SB? Me. _________________________ Mike 'Fox' Morrey 128BPM@124MPH. Love it! 2002 BRG Mini Cooper
