So everyone who wishes to test his compression algorithm can download it from there and so we can compare quality ! I can do it easily with our PC-Hurricane movie grabber(tm), which can digitize 320x240 x16bit/pixel (hicolor, YUV) in realtime to expanded Memory at 25 or 30 frames/sec. This gives a maximum of about 16 seconds video-digitizing with one shot ! It only grabs fields, no frames, but this is still better for motion compression technique. I could perhaps upload 10 to 20 TGA pics, this wouldn't waste too much space... Please email me a FTP server that would accept this volume of data. Every field is about 150 Kbytes big (single 16 bit TGA pic) Best regards, Stefan Hartmann,c/o Gatz & Hartmann email to: leo@zelator.in-berlin.de -- ************************************************************* * Stefan Hartmann This is how to contact me: * * EMAIL: leo@zelator.in-berlin.de * * Phone : ++ 49 30 344 23 66 FAX : ++ 49 30 344 92 79 * *************************************************************
