The SuperMac compression/decompression technology has been licensed by
Atari. This popped up in c.s.a.st and rec.games.video. What it does is
let digitized video to be played back from a CD-ROM in real time.
I've heard from a source inside Atari that it is capable of 320x200
True Color at 30 fps. The Internet posts also stated that Cinepak is
the underlying algorithm of Quicktime(tm). Creative Labs and 3DO are
also licensees...
