Changes for version 6.56

  • Loading very small videos is supported, IF ffmpeg is installed. The voodoo is to convert to an animated GIF file via ffmpeg, then load that file, and then show it. Yes, there is a time penalty, but it does work. There is NO SOUND, but you see the video. FPS is hard set to 15 FPS.
  • When viewing a video, it creates the file "/tmp/output.gif", loads that file, then deletes that file once loaded.
  • It loads the video in its entirety, as an animated GIF. Therefore, load only small videos.
  • Example scripts full-screen logic has been reversed. Full screen is now the default.
  • Splash screen is off by default on the example scripts. You still need to set "SPLASH" to zero for disabling it in your code.
  • Included animated GIF example changed to a much smaller one.
  • "dump.pl" improved to be even more helpful for diagnostics.
  • Versioning added to the example scripts.
  • "slideshow.pl" and "viewpic.pl" added the option "--small" to make it easy to diagnose bus errors. It sets an artificial 320x200 screen. It's a shortcut for "--x=320 --y=200".
