Video player for CPC family with M4 card.

The m4player has not been planned, this is a side effect of the (unsuccessful) MOVE IT! and M4 card compatibility test.

The incompatibility was not difficult to resolve and shed new light on the SD card reader. Data access time and memory capacity have opened up many new possibilities - because Moveit! (game tested) contains animation - video playback was a natural choice to test as the first one.

The player can play soundtrack created with CNGSoft's CHIPNSFX, and offering 12 different video configuration at the moment. In download area you can find sample videos, and early version of player.
