Tuna-viDS plays videos with the following format:
Video: 256px wide, up to 192px tall, up to 12fps, Xvid encoded, non-interlaced
Audio: Mono MP3
Container: AVI with chunk index, video must be the first stream (fourcc 00dc)
You can use ffmpeg to convert videos with this command (all one line):
ffmpeg -i <infile> -f avi -r 10 -s 256x192 -b 192k -bt 64k -vcodec libxvid -deinterlace
-acodec libmp3lame -ar 32000 -ab 96k -ac 1 tuna-vids.avi
This encodes the video as Xvid at 256×192px, 10fps, 192±64kbps. You can try up to 12fps, but anything higher will slow down the decoder too much. It encodes the audio as MP3 at monaural, 32kHz, 96kbps. It muxes it into an AVI container with the filename "tuna-vids.avi". Feel free to experiment with bit rates, sample rates, and frame rates. Just keep the video exactly 256px wide and no more than 192px tall.
