For kicks, I decided to try converting a couple of videos to MPEG-1 and playing them in RiVA via my emulated Amiga 4000. The speed is acceptable enough, and yes, there's a little stutter and frame skipping, but on this emulated system, it's not so bad! I wouldn't dare try this on a stock A4000; it'll probably explode into flames just trying to render the first frame! :P

So here's the Japanese opening to the Capcom PlayStation game, Mega Man 8, running in RiVA on my AmigaOS 3.9 setup, in an emulated Amiga 4000 system with emulated 68040, running in FS-UAE for Debian GNU/Linux.

RiVA is available for download on Aminet: http://aminet.net/package/gfx/show/RiVA-0.52

Support Capcom by purchasing Mega Man 8 where it's available.
