1. General Description
   SVGAUTL.EXE is one of the utilities of SiS 5597/5598.
   It supports three functions:
      (1) Video Mode Setting
      (2) Frame Rate Setting
      (3) Power Saving Setting
   Since SiS 5597/5598 supports many enhanced Text Mode and Graphic Mode, you
   can use SVGAUTL.EXE to select the desired video mode.
   For 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768, and 1280x1024 resolutions, SiS 5597/5598
   SVGA supports multiple frame rates.
   If your monitor could synchronize with these frame rates, you can use
   SVGAUTL.EXE to get advantage.
   SiS 5597/5598 also supports VESA DPMS Power Saving Modes.
   SVGAUTL.EXE can help you to set the capability.
2. How to Use?
   To use SVGAUTL.EXE,
   (1) Type "SVGAUTL" in the directory where it resides.
       For example,
       A:\>SVGAUTL        <Enter> (suppose SVGAUTL.EXE resides in Diskette#1)
    OR D:\>MM\DOS\SVGAUTL <Enter> (suppose SVGAUTL.EXE resides in CD-ROM "D")

   (2) The Main Menu would appear and direct you to configure SiS 5597/5598.
   (3) When you complete configuration, you may save your preferences to
       "AUTOEXEC.BAT file and use it as your power-on (or hardware reset)
       default  environment.                                                                                     
3. What the Parameters Stand for?
   The meaning of parameters used by SVGAUTL.EXE are explained below:
   Syntax:
  >SVGAUTL [/D:mode_no] [/F0:n0] [/F1:n1] [/F2:n2] [/F3:n3] [/PA:ta] [/PB:tb]
    where
    /D: Set the Video Mode to be mode_no which is a hex number.
        For example : Set 1024x768 256 color graphic mode.
                      >SVGAUTL /D:38 <Enter>
   /F0: For 640x480, set frame rate to be n0 Hz.
        Three availabe frame rates are 60, 72, and 75 Hz.
        For example : Set 640x480 graphic mode with 60Hz frame rate
                      >SVGAUTL /F0:60 <Enter>
   /F1: For 800x600, set frame rate to be n1 Hz.
        Four availabe frame rates are 56, 60, 72, and 75 Hz.
        For example : Set 800x600 graphic mode with 72Hz frame rate.
                      >SVGAUTL /F1:72 <Enter>
   /F2: For 1024x768, set frame rate to be n2 Hz.
        Four availabe frame rates are 87 (Interlace), 60, 70, and 75 Hz.
        For example : Set 1024x768 graphic mode with 60Hz frame rate.
                      >SVGAUTL /F2:60 <Enter>
   /F3: For 1280x1024, set frame rate to be n3 Hz.
        Two availabe frame rates are 87 (Interlace) and 60 Hz.
        For example : Set 1280x1024 graphic mode with 60Hz frame rate.
                      >SVGAUTL /F3:60 <Enter>
   /PA: Set Standby Timer to be ta minutes. (0 < ta < 15 min.)
        For example : Set Standby Timer be 5 minutes.
                      >SVGAUTL /PA:5 <Enter>
   /PB: Set Suspend Timer to be tb minutes. (0 < tb < 15 min.)
        For example : Set Suspend Timer be 5 minutes.
                      >SVGAUTL /PB:5 <Enter>
   Note:
   (1) Suspend Time would be "ta + tb". (i.e. standby time + suspend time)
   (2) The timers will not be very accurate and would just be around the time

#  Windows 95 OSR2 Q&A

   In Windows 95 OSR2, it provids a default MCI driver -- "Active Movie"
   to replace the "Xing" or "Compcord" or "MediaMedics" MCI driver. But
   using Active Movie has some problems because the Active Movie MCI
   command sets are not very compelete.

   Q: Why SiSMMPlayer seems not support "config" function?
   A: Because the Active Movie MCI command not provide this function. If
      users using Xing to replace the Active Movie MCI driver,  then the
      config dialog provided by Xing can be seen. i.e. The config dialog
      is created and designed by MCI driver not by Utility (SiSMMplayer).


   Q: Why SiSMMPlayer cannot open VCD 2.0 fomat VCD in Windows 95 OSR2?
   A: Because the Active Movie cannot read some VCD 2.0 format file correctly
      ,it makes our SiSMMPlayer VCD 2.0 function not able to work.
      Users can try to use the player provided by Active Movie, it also
      cannot open above files. If users installed Xing, then use SiSMMplayer,
      all VCD 2.0 function will work fine.


   Q: Why the "Full Screen" selection item seems not work correctly in
      Windows 95 OSR2??
   A: If user installed Xing's MCI driver, then use SiSMMplayer to open a
      FullScreen Video window, it will work fine. But under OSR2  (Active
      movie), when SiS require the MCI driver to open a full screen video
      window, it give us a maximized window.

#  Video Operations
1. DCI Function
   SiS 5597/5598 supports DCI driver for software MPEG playback and other
   media player programs which could take advantage of DCI.
   The SiS 5597/5598 DCI driver is automatically loaded during "Windows
   Driver Unpack & Copy" process.  Therefore it should be transparent to
   the end-user and any media players could take advantage of it.
2. SiS MMPlay (SW MPEG)
   To make SW MPEG playback more friendly than original SW MPEG player
   supplier provided, SiS provide an MMPlayer application program to provide
   an VCP-like (Video Cassette Player) interface.
   To take advantage of the SiS MMPlayer, you must first install "SW MPEG
   Player".  All the SiS provided is just an interface but not a SW MPEG
   Player at present.  If the SW MPEG Player does not exist, the SiS MMPlayer
   will not work. (Xing or Mediamatics)

   To use the SiS MMPlayer, you just follow the procedures below:
   (1) In "SiS Multimedia Vx.xx" program group,
       choose "SiS MMPlayer" icon and SiS MMPlayer VCP-like icon would appear.
   (2) Enjoy the SW MPEG playback as you like.
