If you have a PC, then just use Moonshell on your R4.
I mention PC, because afaik, the DPG video tools only work there.

 

[Ajlr]

I have no pc. I have moonshell 1.71 and it can't play videos.

regarding longer videos:

you can use

-segment_time 00:05:00 -f segment -reset_timestamps 1

ffmpeg parameters to split videos. just add -%02d to output filename (for 2 digit numbering. e.g. video-00.mp4 video-01.mp4)

@Ajlr
you could try to install termux, then in termux install ffmpeg package. this way you get more recent version of ffmpeg (https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/tree/master/packages/ffmpeg)

I have an error when running in Unlaunch.

Everytime I try to run my mp4, a split second frame of vid shows and a Guru Meditation error happens

Any fixes?

same I also got that issue. This error always appeared in the same part of the video. Try an older version of the mpeg4player. The video worked fine without crash on the older version.

The player currently does work, on cell phones I use termux and I convert the videos and it works perfectly, the only thing would be to find a way to increase the resolution from 144 to 192 without the player crashing or giving me a guru mediation error

Does it end in .mp4?

 

[chachun]

Does it end in .mp4?

it doesn't, I'll try it out once i find my damn microsd adapter

 

[jeffyTheHomebrewer]

Would it be possible to embed the video into a NDS rom, like NesDS?

 

[chachun]

can somebody post an example command, I have no idea how this works or where to put my file names and such.

Yes. It's a matter of having the app read the video from NitroFS, instead of the SD card.

Use mine from the first page.

i have absolutely no experience when it comes to coding, where do I put the input file name? I know the output file name comes at the end of the command

Replace %1 with the input file name.
