Using SVGA Video Mode Motion Video Playback When the ThinkPad display device driver is installed in the computer, the computer is equipped with the motion video playback acceleration function. This function is automatically enabled and is ready to play back motion video driven by an application. However, the acceleration function is available only in the following display settings: On a monitor On TFT models On DSTN models Color Resolution Color Resolution Color Resolution 64 x48 64 x48 64 x48 256 8 x6 256 8 x6 256 8 x6 1 24x768 1 24x768 1 24x768 65,536 64 x48 * Virtual screen enabled. Hints and Tips If you have changed the display setting and the playback video quality is unsatisfactory, check whether your current display setting is supported in the preceding table. If the it is supported, try using 800-by-600 resolution and 256 colors. If you are using the TFT display with 800-by-600 resolution, select 256 colors instead of 65,536 colors for better screen image. Use the display function in the ThinkPad Features program. If you are playing back video in a WIN-OS/2 full screen, stop the video before you switch back to an OS/2 session. The performance to playback motion video depends on the speed to transfer data, other concurrently running applications, and the playback application. For best playback results, make sure the motion video data has a fast data transfer speed and that other applications are closed. 46 IBM ThinkPad 560 User's Guide
