Subject: Re: max file formats

I have been talking to the guy who implemented the MVE playback in FFmpeg. I can't get FFmpeg to compile on my Win32 VC++ 2008 system, so I'm going to have to reimplement it. The problem is stripping out the MVE specific stuff from the FFmpeg specific stuff.

Since nobody's paying me, I kind of jump from topic to topic. Right now, I'm trying to figure out how to write the map resource data into a 16-color PCX for easier comparison to my resource allocation algorithm - I just don't know what to do with the palette information in the header (such as how to create it, what it means, and so on). These sites don't help much with that: http://www.fileformat.info/...a2/PCX.TXT
and
http://www.fileformat.info/format/pcx/#PCX-DMYID.2

And forget about writing it as a bitmap...
