Hey Guys,
After some years, I heard nothing about the mobiclip-format and I really want to use a video (3d if possible) for a opening scene in a Homebrewgame I'm working on.
I really want to make a own mobiclip video which can be used in homebrews like there mobiclip-videos of other games like Fire Emblem or something like this.
Does anyone know if there's already a way to convert videos into the needed format or playing Videos in homebrews?

Not much is known about the MobiClip video format, and it's pretty heavily protected in most DS games' SDK, I don't think it's compatible with the 3DS or 3D video.
3DS games use different formats for cutscenes, etc, and with homebrew, sometimes you can implement common formats such as MP4 or AVI.

Are you sure that MP4 and/or Avi-formats would work as "Opening-Scene" (which can be skipped) in a Homebrew? Not sure about this yet

Retail 3DS games use Mobiclip, but there's no reason you can't use something else in a homebrew.

You'd have to include a MP4/DivX decoder in your homebrew, I think. The 3DS video player plays MJPEG in an .avi container so there must be some API available to play that format.

I thought Mobiclip was dead?

That's what I thought you'd have to do. Would that be very difficult at all?

AVI works for sure, if you use the same settings as in Photo App. MP4 might be too much for the 3DS cpu to handle, although the new 3ds has a h264 decoder(?) but I think that isn't supported yet by most homebrews (?)

YouTube app plays videos on o3DS, so it's able to handle MP4 to some level at least.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon
