In Topic: How to create and use DML

Thanks a lot FIX94! Your guide is awesome! Now all the DML stuff is now pretty clear for me :D

In Topic: [r4igold.cc] Update for 3DS 3.0.0-5

20 December 2011 - 12:53 AM

Keep in mind this is a Firmware update and it's different from the card's Kernel.

You need a DS Phat/Lite in order to update (not sure about DSi and if you already updated your 3DS it won't work). Just place the .nds file on your SD Card, and launch it from the card's main menu just like a normal game.

After that, press START and the firmware updating process will start (just wait until it reaches 100%).

After that just place the R4 on the 3DS and it will work as before.

Good luck!

Figured it out, looks it was a problem related with the AAC audio codec from my videos.

What I did was that I encode them first to PCM and then to adpcm (if you leave it as PCM, the output file is double the size compared to adpcm). So it went more or less like this:

CODE
del VID_*.AVI
del newVideo.avi
ffmpeg -i %1 -s 400x240 -aspect 2:1 -r 20 -vcodec mjpeg -qscale 13 -acodec pcm_s16le -ac 2 "newVideo.avi"
ffmpeg -i "newVideo.avi" -vcodec copy -acodec adpcm_ima_wav -ac 2 -ss 00:00:00 -t 00:09:59 "VID_0001.AVI"
ffmpeg -i "newVideo.avi" -vcodec copy -acodec adpcm_ima_wav -ac 2 -ss 00:09:59 -t 00:09:59 "VID_0002.AVI"
ffmpeg -i "newVideo.avi" -vcodec copy -acodec adpcm_ima_wav -ac 2 -ss 00:19:58 -t 00:09:59 "VID_0003.AVI"
ffmpeg -i "newVideo.avi" -vcodec copy -acodec adpcm_ima_wav -ac 2 -ss 00:29:57 -t 00:09:59 "VID_0004.AVI"



The process takes about the same, and works fine. The only downside is that the video files are still to big, but managed to convert a 24 min video to 200 MB (about the same as Xvid), using 15 FPS and qscale 15. Doesn't look too bad.

Thanks a lot!

EDIT: spinal_cord: could you perhaps add the split command so it only takes the first 10 minutes, and skips the rest if it's over 10 minutes?


I've actually began working on that. This is what I have so far for 2D videos (placed in a batch file, and quality of 13 from the range of 1 as best and 31 as worst).

CODE
del VID_*.AVI
del newVideo.avi
ffmpeg -i %1 -s 400x240 -aspect 2:1 -r 20 -vcodec mjpeg -qscale 13 -acodec copy "newVideo.avi"
ffmpeg -i "newVideo.avi" -vcodec copy -acodec adpcm_ima_wav -ac 2 -ss 00:00:00 -t 00:09:59 "VID_0001.AVI"
ffmpeg -i "newVideo.avi" -vcodec copy -acodec adpcm_ima_wav -ac 2 -ss 00:09:59 -t 00:09:59 "VID_0002.AVI"
ffmpeg -i "newVideo.avi" -vcodec copy -acodec adpcm_ima_wav -ac 2 -ss 00:19:58 -t 00:09:59 "VID_0003.AVI"
ffmpeg -i "newVideo.avi" -vcodec copy -acodec adpcm_ima_wav -ac 2 -ss 00:29:57 -t 00:09:59 "VID_0004.AVI"



All that is required in Windows is to drag the video over the batch file, and it'll process the video, then split them, up to 29m57s of video. If you have a longer video, just mimick how the split is done. For some reason, making 10m videos exactly wasn't working on my 3DS, but 9m59s does. Also, audio encoding isn't done until during the split because ffmpeg kept having a problem splitting the adpcm format.

I'm sure someone else with more experience could improve on this.


For some reason, the audio isn't working for me with this, I get audio for a few seconds on the splitted files and then it disappears. Weird.

Eh, still kinda new to the workings of the Acekard, so forgive my ignorance. But will this update allow me to use my card (with AKAIO, of course) after doing the mandatory update associated with Super Mario 3D Land. I'd really like to play the game, but I'm holding off until I know something for sure. Or is that type of fix strictly something that has to come from the Acekard team?

Thanks


Yep, you have to wait for a fix from the Acekard team, probably they are waiting for the next FW update to come out (most likely this week?), and then (again probably) they'll release their fix soon.
