Just tested it, it works brilliantly.
You can throw something through DivX converter using the mobile profile, the 320x240 resolution has more than enough detail for the small resolution of the DS, and it displays very nicely.
You'll have to change the .divx extension to .avi before it will work.
Honestly? This makes the DStwo the best flashcart for the DS bar none now.

Doesn't that defeat the purpose of the DSTwo?

For me, it does not work. I have only a white screen. I own a DSi XL

Sorry übersetz mit Google

for some reason I also get a white screen on my dsi xl

Me too. White screens. tested on a DSi and DSlite.
I realized that In readme file has:
"Download and unzip, then copy" DSTWO PLAYER "and" _dstwoplug " folders to the root of your microsd card."
But the folder is named: "_ds2Video" and not "DSTWO PLAYER", would this cause the problem? Or not?

I also tried different types and sizes of microSD, and are still with white screen.
 
I for one am getting sick of Supercard releasing features that kind of work, don't really work, or just work like shit. This plays avi well but it can't handle flv at all. This has been the same since the iPlayer over a year ago and they have never fixed it. If they're never going to take the time to get a feature working right they should just drop it. Congratulations Supercard as of today you have more features that work half assed than work well.

I'm sure everyone is tired of you bitching about eveything dstwo, so do everyone a favor and go worship your precious cycloDS at the TC forum..oh wait..TC forum is down again..too bad

Which is why they released the SDK to any developers that wished to improve these features. The same will happen now, some people that think this needs .flv support may start working on it, and eventually, you'll have a full-fledged .flv player for the DSTWO.

There's also a major dilemma for the team, because if they don't release the updates fast, people will complain, but if they release fast, yet not very complete updates, people will also complain. Hypocrisy much?

Quit whining.

I remembered that I had the same problem with the iPlayer flashcard.

My O.S is Ubuntu Linux. Just get it to work when the iPlayer
unzip the software using Windows.

When I do the procedure using Linux for some reason does not work.

With this software the same thing happened.

Now is working .

We are just testing
Well, your testing is useless if those are the file formats you're going to test. According to your logic, you should test if you can play SNES games on a C64, which is obviously completely irrelevant and logically impossible.

Would you say that 320x240 would look the same (as in the same picture quality) as 640x480?
You can clearly see the difference on the computer, I wonder if the same goes for the DS...
 
My current SD card is kinda full and I kinda use my Iphone for movies (Though not much as I prefer to either upload them to my PS3 or my Wii depending on where I am at....or just watch them on my computer), but I've been waiting on this for awhile and I can't wait to give it a whirl....Actually I haven't updated my Supercard since like the 2nd update....
 
So far I've tested two files; a flv and a mkv file. The colors are great, but both files are lagging so much it is unwatchable. The flv was 640×360 and the mvk (w/ subtitles) was the same I think.

So now I'm going to test the others and redo these in lower quality.
