RealTime MainConcept Motion-JPEG Codec for Win32 v1 --------------------------------------------------- This archive contains a full-futured CODEC DLL (dynamic link library) for realtime encoding and decoding of Movie-JPEG (M-JPEG) coded AVIs. It can decode Motion-JPEG (Movie-JPEG, MJPEG, MJPG) AVIs, created with Miro (DC10,DC20,DC30), FAST, Matrox and similar cards. It supports interleaved M-JPEG. The CODEC includes a realtime M-JPEG encoder for Win32. It targets MMX-only processors (no MMX-detection code is included) The decoder contained in the archive is free for non-commercial use, the encoder is provided for evaluation. It adds a MainConcept logo to the captured video (which results in 2-3% fps loss). If you want to create M-JPEG AVIs please have a look at our MainActor package, which allows you to convert from/to many video formats, including AVI M-JPEG. Note: An MMX capable processor is required, otherwise this CODEC wont work. Installation ------------ Simply click with the right mouse-button on the provided "mcmjpeg.inf" file and select the install option, or go to the multimedia settings and add the CODEC manually. Notes on the Decoder -------------------- The decoder allows you to playback hardware or software generated M-JPEG AVI files. After installation you can simply play these files inside the Windows media player. The decoder is MMX optimized and should be able to decode PAL/NTSC coded AVIs in near realtime. Notes on the Encoder -------------------- You can use the encoder part of the CODEC to capture M-JPEG video. Simply choose a capture application which can compress the video online (like VidCap from Microsoft). Select the "MainConcept M-JPEG CODEC" as compressor and start capturing. The CODEC is able to capture 352*288 in 25-30 fps and 640*480 in 10-15 fps on an P-II 333 Mhz processor. The encoder currently supports RGB24 and RGB16 as input formats, RGB24 is a bit faster. We are already working on several improvements, for example YUV input formats. Important: The video width must be a multiple of 16 and the height a multiple of 8 (like in 320*200, 352*288, 640*480, etc). Optimal video quality is 75. Data rate limit is currently not supported. License ------- This package is officialy part of the MainActor distribution but, due to the size of the MainActor package, is distributed in a different archive. The decoder part of the CODEC is free to use for anybody in a non-commercial way. For commercial use you need our written agreement. The encoder is distributed for evalution.
