Question 4.19: Do the ATI drivers support 16 bit colour depth?

Gentoo ATI Radeon FAQ
No, although this is one of the requested features (see here). Until ATI add support for it, 24 bit colour is the usual alternative.

What is Bit Depth?

Inventive-Design
Bit depth--also called pixel depth or color depth--measures how much color information is available to display or print each pixel in an image. Greater bit depth (more bits of information per pixel) means more available colors and more accurate color representation in the digital image. For example, a pixel with a bit depth of 1 has two possible values: black and white. A pixel with a bit depth of 8 has 28, or 256, possible values.

Scanners | Frequently Asked Questions
Bit depth refers to the number of colors that a scanner can reproduce, in color and in grayscale. Most scanners support at least 24-bit color for photos, images, and color graphics. Some offer a higher dpi, like 36-bit, 42-bit or 48-bit color. For grayscale, most scanners typically support 8-bit or 16-bit.

Section 1 - Information about the drivers Question 1.1: Why use the ATI binary drivers?

Gentoo ATI Radeon FAQ
The ATI binary drivers are at present the only drivers which support 3D acceleration on cards based on the R3xx and R4xx chipsets. This includes recent cards such as the 9500, 9600, 9700, and 9800 series, plus the high end mobility chipsets and X-series cards. effort to develop an opensource driver for the high end Radeon chipsets is underway here. If you want to try this driver, be aware that it is still under development and that you may encounter serious problems.

Question 2.3: Do I need to select the "ATI chipset support" kernel option if I have an ATI card?

Gentoo ATI Radeon FAQ
This option gives you AGP support for the GLX component of XFree86 4.x on the ATI Radeon IGP family of chipsets". In other words, you don't need this unless you have a system with an IGP integrated graphics chipset. If you have a normal AGP card, ignore this option.

Question 4.42: I've emerged ati-drivers but I don't have an fglrx module, why?

Gentoo ATI Radeon FAQ
Part of the ati-drivers ebuild attempts to compile the fglrx module against your current kernel. The other part will install various other files (OpenGL libraries etc). However, the ebuild will not fail if the fglrx module can't be compiled, so unless you watch the output closely, it's easy to miss this. The usual reason for the module failing to compile is that your kernel is too new and/or heavily patched.

What is RGB 16 bit and dithering?

tv-player | frequently asked questions [ flipbook, animation...
RGB 16 bit means that 16 bits = 2 bytes per pixel are used to display a color. Usually 24 or 32 bits = 1 byte per Red, Green and Blue channel are used to display a pixel's colors. Because 16 bit can only display a maximum of 65536 different color shades, which sometimes results in heavy color banding, a technique called dithering is used to reduce color banding and to improve visual image quality. tv-player can use two different dithering techniques, ordered and diffusion.

I have an ATi card, how do I get the fglrx drivers to build?

Slamd64 FAQ - SlackWiki
fglrx requires 64bit GCC 3.3 C++ libraries to build (cxxlibs-6.0.3-x86_64-1) and the 32 bit c/ compatibility packages. Install those libraries, and then get fglrx64 (not fglrx) from ATi's website. You may also need the 32bit compatibility packages in Slamd64, and the driver may require further patching if you want to use it on the latest kernel.

Should I record at 16 or 24 bit?

Transom Tools FAQ: Recording & Editing
bit really does sound better than 16-bit, but there are a couple of down-sides. The soundfiles are significantly larger, which even with today's big drives, always ends up making a crunch for space, and can often make it more difficult to archive, spilling to multiple CDRs or whatever. And even the bounce-to-disc is now harder for the computer, and depending on the number of tracks and kinds of plug-ins, you could choke the processor, even a nice new speedy one.

All data are currently imported and exported as 8 bits per pixel component (eg, 8 bits Red, 8 bits Green, 8 bits Blue, 8 bits Alpha). 16 bit data will be converted to 8 bit data prior to import/export. When importing with "All Frames" enabled, all frames in the clip being imported must be the same dimensions (for example, 720 x 576).

Video Design Software | Broadcast Graphics Automation | Syna...
Some plugins handle 16 bit data, whereas others only support 8 bit data. In this case, 16 bit images are converted to 8 bit for processing by the plugin. This is dependent on the individual Neuron bundles and how the corresponding vendors have implemented their plugins. In the Synapse Setup page, you will see the 16 bit formats under "Pixel Formats" if the current plugin supports 16 bit processing.

edit] What is 8 bit and 16 bit?

CSA2 FAQ Complete - A2wiki
That indicates how big the chunks of data are that the CPU can manipulate at once. The Apple IIGS is a 16 bit machine and all other Apple ]['s are 8 bit machines. (It is possible to put a 65802 (extremely rare nowadays) as a replacement for a 6502 or 65C02, and get limited 16 bit functionality, but as the GS has a lot of extra chips to support what it does, you still would not be able to run 99.9% of GS software on such a machine)

How do I convert between 8 bit and 16 bit descriptors?

Descriptors FAQ
TDes defines a set of Copy() methods to copy data from another descriptor of either width, from a pointer to a block of data of a specified length or from a NULL-terminated string. There are also methods for copying with folding,collation or case adjustment. In each case, the data is copied *from* the source specified in the parameter *into* the modifiable, target, descriptor upon which the method is called.

What differences are there between the 16 bit and 32 bit environments?

FAQ - Cogencee
The Delphi 1 environment is for Windows 3.1 and 16 bit. The only significant difference to you is that the 32 bit (Delphi 4 and higher) environment handles long file names. In the example grammars the Cocol code is the same for each environment. However, because of changes made to the Delphi compiler some minor changes to embedded Delphi code has been necessary in some cases. The code generated by Cogencee is the same for Delphi 1 and Delphi 4 and higher.

How do I call a 16 bit DLL from a 32 bit app?

Win32 FAQ
Neither Visual C++ nor Visual Basic supports using 16-bit DLLs from 32-bit code; nor does any other compiler. It is possible to use 16-bit DLLs from a 32-bit program, but there is no (standard) automatic tool to do this. You have to code it manually. write a 16-bit application that calls the DLL, and communicate with the 16-bit app via some IPC mechanism (COM, DDE, Windows messages, etc) This is the last choice you have that can work the same way on 95/98/Me and NT4/Win2K. implement thunking.
