MPEG Encoding Demo

This package creates two NTSC MPEG-I files:

movie120.mpg                ... complying with MPEG-I constrained parameters
                                (low quality)
movie120_higher_bitrate.mpg ... running at the MPEG-II framerate
                                (high quality)

The 120 input files to encode are not delivered, they are rendered by TruFlite.

Requirements:

Hard disk space: Approx. 120 MB. The steps below will create 120 TGA files.

Usage:

- Open a command prompt (DOS box).
- Change your working directory to the subdirectory where this README file resides.
- Type, "01_make120frames.bat"

How this works:

01_make120frames.bat calls:

- MakeTGA.exe to create the elevation file "elevation.tga"
- MakeTGA.exe to create the texture file "texture.tga"
- TruFlite to render "movie120.trf" in the raw mode
- MakeMovie120.bat to create the low quality MPEG file
- MakeMovie120_higher_bitrate.bat to create the high quality MPEG file

To clean up after the test, i. e. to delete all files created during the test:

- Type, "02_cleanup.bat"
