Asha, as i remember, i had also problems with Tapavi…since it is a descendant of Xanims which supports less avi formats, i pushed it back to the archives 🙂 I haven't tried the audio options ( +Ae ) for no need. You may also need +Av[0..100] for volume control. For your avi file in ram: here are the suggested commands (the layout of the last script was killed by the textfield gadget 🙁 …hope this will do better…) ;—————–8<—-run-this-as-a-script———————- setenv X11/askmode 1 ; will ask you for a screenmode setenv X11/gfxcard 1 setenv X11/displaydepth 8 ; couldn't get more 😐 ; Stack 20000 ; more if you like, less crashes.. ; xanim +Ae +CF4 +fX Koshi.avi ; ^ ^ ^^ ; | | ||– verbose ; | | |— don't load complete anim into ram, only needed frames ; | |——- video option. There are lots more, this one works ; | in most cases ; |————- Audio enable ; ;—————–8<—-end-of-script——————— BTW, Xanim is reported to run on a A2000 with a Retina GfxBoard… if you get it, you may send a message to its maker, Terje Pedersen. hopefully this helps, with kind regards Dieter Goettmann jetting on AP1.80 from Karlsruhe, Germany
