Couple of questions regarding some issues installing Hollywood on my classic.
When installing Hollywood 5 on a 68060 can you use the 3.x (FPU) version ?
I've installed it using both versions Non FPU and FPU but As soon as the intro demo goes to start , at the end of the installer, I get a hollywood player *.hws png unsupported format error
If I try to update my hollywood 5 to 5.2 with the update The installer fails with the same type of png not a supported format error.
Are png's decoded internally or do I need a PNG datatype installed If so which one ? I've currently using this one from aminet... http://aminet.net/util/dtype/PNGdt44.lha
cheers

OK answering myself it uses datatypes
I've reinstalled my PNG and BMP datatypes and I've got the 5.2 update to install.
However, the 5.3 update just hangs (frozen machine) when you click Install on the installer screen for the process to begin.
Is there a way to debug whats causing it or install the 5.3 patches manually ?

Are you sure that it really hangs when you click on install? Is the mouse pointer still movable? On classic machines the update progress can really take 30 minutes or so because checksums have to be generated for huge files etc.

Yes it really hung, mouse frozen, but never mind I worked around it by installing and patching to V5.3 under Amiga Forever then copying it over.
