Since I got lucky during weekend with some formats, I got enough of them to release na_eofdec. This is a tool similar to na_game_tool but oriented at generic exotic and obscure formats (or Amiga ones, put them into whatever category you like). So if you’re familiar with that one (why?!) you should have no troubles with the new one either (or at least it should be the same troubles).
The motivation behind it is about the same as with the other tool: decode whatever formats I find interesting enough to implement decoders for but not interesting enough to have them supported in the main NihAV base. Also it serves as a playground for various other things (like MOV muxer in this case, which served as the base for more versatile muxer in NihAV).
Anyway, it is released in hope (but no expectations and definitely no guarantees) that it will be useful for some purpose for others. The release is available at its own sub-page at nihav.org (and there’s a link to it in the appropriate section of this blog too).
Awesome!! I’ve just added support for it and most of the formats it supports to dexvert, and discmaster will soon be reprocessing matching files in order to turn them into wonderful video. Thank you VERY MUCH for creating another great tool for these old formats. Quick question, do you have any links to sample files of electric image?
I don’t remember where I found most extensive set (it was in some QuickTime plugins) but if you search for “ElectricImage Tutorials” directory at the usual place you’ll find an animation or two plus some textures in that format.
