Ok, just got access to my Falcy, so I booted it up. Results: - 030, TOS - works - 030, MiNT - works - 060, TOS - crashes at exactly the same point as you - 060, MiNT - idem I can only think of 3 options: a) Forget about it, b) It's GPLed (the source is available at his website), so pick up the source and fix it, c) Use another program. I tried decoding a 100k jpeg in 030 mode (with Brainstorm's jpeg dsp proggie installed) and it took about 5 mins or maybe more. Then out of habit I double clicked on the picture while in 060/MiNT and zview decoded and showed it in <1sec. So it's ball breaking slow to begin with. -- Best regards, George mailto:ggn@thebat.net
