							MLC Codec Version 0.1.

MLC is lossless codec using Vfw standard. It uses FCC code MLCY (I hope there is no problem with this). Internal format of codec is YUY2. 
RGB24 format is converted to YUY2. This coversion is not really lossless. Other than this all compression is lossless, at least this was intention.
This is only early version, so there can be problems with some programs. I really tested it only with VDub, my TV-card capture program and some players. 
You can inform me about problems, bugs or comments on my mail: miro@linek.sk.


		1. Instalation.

With explorer right click on mlc.inf and select "Install".


		2. Description of configure screen.

Compression (predefined) 
	- some predefined configurations. You can always change them manualy. 

Only keyframes
	- when not checked you can define interval between key frames. Non key frames (I-frames) are usually faster and better compressed.

Motion estimation
	- used for I-frames. Usefull for slow scenes. Sometimes it doesn't help too much.

Mode
	- changes inner program parameters. In most cases Standard is the best setting. For realtime capture use Maximize speed. 
	  With Maximize compression you'l get slightly better compression.

Modified RGB-YUV
	- there are used two different RGB-YUV conversions. They result to different intervals of YUV channels. When not checked interval is 
	  (16-235) for Y and (16-239) for U,V. When checked interval is always (0-255). First option is better when viewing on TV.
