how come it seems like nothing's working on pm?

[Mike Wagstaff]

What? Chris doesn't know what it will look like? I thought he was in the loop....

[randall]

lol. God that was funny.<br><br>Yeah, someone needs to get their ass in gear and get something going. I have no idea who is designated as the designer of PM2 (or if anyone besides 999 has been), but something needs to be happening.

[Chris Edwards]

shapeshifter has been doing some design for pm2. I'm working on some coding for pm2..

[Paul]

yeah i just love shapes work.<br><br>no, really!<br><br>i'm being serious!!<br><br>honestly, i love his work!!<br><br>...

[Moose or Chuck]

This whole place has gone to hell since 999 left. This website doesn't have much on it anyway, so if one section goes down then the quality drops by 1/8th

[Paul]

bloody hell, fuck off if you dont like the site anymore. what is it? because pocketcoder fell through? fuck that, you're a reviewer arent you? <br><br>why dont you review some older games so we'll actually have more than just simcity.

[mgrosner]

use mpg

[Paul]

why does everyone hate wmv anyway? i get my enterprise eps in divx and the quality is fine for the size... equal or better to most divx of that file size anyway.

[Chris Edwards]

that's cause the people encoding them are probably stupid... we'd use 2pass vbr encoding methods which would kick wmv's arse.

[Paul]

ah

WMV is not the way to go. This format is too slow because of unoptimized player. And IPAQ users don't forget that it has no dithering capabilities. SO poor colors and image. Doh! This fits in about 2 MB. And yes if you're going to do streaming with it those 2 megs will sit in your even more precious RAM, , unless you have 2 slots but then you're a lucky lucky guy.<br>Use DivX Player instead, for sure. It's really fast (try it!), has streaming capabilities, small size (less than 400K), Bilinear filtering for us ipaqers, and videos are small too. The developers are really friendly and easily found at the PM forum(not PocketMatrix, ProjectMayo!)<br>I love PocketTV too, but streaming is difficult with it, cause MPEG-1 videos are fat.

[Chris Edwards]

See, I'm not the only one that thinks PocketDivX is the way to go .

[Luciano U. Werner]

Chris, I'm beginning to think you have a profit margin...<br>;)

[PepeGG]

In that case I think I deserve part of the profit don't I ?
