If there are subtitles, go with the High quality and lower FPS if you can deal with it


* = Video lagged maybe a few times, but still very watchable

Setting were tested with a 22 minute english subbed video

I tried those with a Family Guy episode, and the graphics were good, but the sound kept phasing in and out of sync. I'm giving up on video for now until something concrete comes out for the Max Media Player

[Mazza]

Really? Family guy was great on my Supercard Mini SD

[metroplex2k7]

Yeah, but unfortunately, I dropped $120 on that crappy Max Media Player, so I gotta wait until a better viewer comes out

:D Thanks for sticking, i think this shows i have too much time...lol

[assclown1]

How do i calculate the height and width to keep the original aspect ratio? I put the settings listed and it squeezes the movie and it makes the people look squeezed in. The video played fine, but it's the way it looks that is bugging me. The movie i'm converting is 588x238.
Thanks

Whatcha talkin' bout? Video plays on MoonShell just fine on my MMP. I have 3 Sonic X eps on it that all play flawlessly. ^_^

I guess those settings are a little out of date....I converted Bleach with 20FPS and 384 bitrate on a max resolution and it ran fine (audio was also at 128)

[DancinWookie]

I converted some of my dvd's to AVI or other backed up anime... what ever. And the audio is off completely any Ideas?

And it was 6 months old before you revived it again. Regardless, it's a stickied topic, so I see no reason as to why it can't be gravedug anyway.

But yes, the settings are a bit outdated, as you can improve the bitrate quite a bit without stuttering now.

:rofl:

Erm... Yeah what Dan said, but I did make those video settings so I had figured I needed to update them, even if put minimally (My name used to be CPU_Smarts)

[DanTheManMS]

http://www.scdev.org/forum/index.php?topic=11437.0 has some recommended settings for use with BatchDPG, and it's a great guide overall for installing and using Moonshell.

[chanmasta]

Threads revived again, kcajblue lol nice spoiler. ANYWAY!...

Has anyone used DVD FAB Platinum to convert DVD's to DPG format, if so does it work? Also what settings did you use???

Thanks!

[Wolfman774]

Lets do some grave digging.

Moonshell 2.0 stable is out and comes with a DPG converter whitch automatically downloads videos from youtube aswell as encoding them from your HD, and it works perfect on my R4 with 1GB microSD.

my problem is that when i play the video (which works fine) the audio is too fast and is out of synch with the video. The audio is usually faster than the video and finishes before the video does
