It's working. :)

However, I had to put the avi file

in the root directory.

Also, I had tried another avi file; however, it did not work.

I hope this homebrew will be improved.

Thats what happens when DCEMU are retarded and dont post the full details. So ill post them for you.


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

The author's nick is Chishm but most people spell it wrong, so it's now a bit of a joke.

Haha, so THAT's why Chishm was looking for an mp3 decoder that ran entirely on the ARM7 alone! Gonna check this out soon, a new video player sounds awesome even if it would only really be useful for anime and such at 12 fps.
