Homebrew [RELEASE] BootAnim9 - Custom boot animations for your 3DS!

[Docmudkipz]

MUCH better, gonna update the OP *again*

It uses ffmpeg to convert to the necessary format. Input can be a GIF as well as any format ffmpeg uses, like MP4. Just keep in mind that you can't just convert a 30 minute video to one of these animations XD

I just put a 17 sec webm through the script, it worked and put it up to 48mb. Should work with mp4s and such as well, but I dont suggest going over 15s or 5-6 sec each if you want both screens.

will it work with Audio?

Did you test it on your 3DS as well? Remember to delete the bottom animation or it will refuse to load

There's no way to access audio from A9LH so...

Full thing played properly and I have a single black frame set as the bottom "animation" so I dont have the white void staring at me while I enjoy my short clip and 25s total boot time

Yeah, might have to implement file streaming at a certain point. Thanks for the feedback!
BTW the white screen is just used to indicate that the payload is running. My SD card is kinda loose so sometimes I didn't know whether it was loading the animations or a9lh couldn't read my payload at all. Gonna change it to black on future releases, this was just to get some feedback and to give users a taste of what's going to come

 

[OrGoN3]

OP, what CFW are you using there?

 

[WiiUBricker]

Anyone have a PS One boot animation? Is sound even supported?

 

[OrGoN3]

How long can your animation be? Is there a way to loop or specify a time?

I had to do this one

http://www27.zippyshare.com/v/EsgJ2QRw/file.html

ffmpeg -i "avifile" -r 10 -pix_fmt bgr24 -vf "transpose=1" output.name

Use something like virtualdub to do the resize.

 

[A_Random_Guy]

Damn dude. Next time telegram me first when you're gonna make a release . Now we need is a console boot splash

You should show a GIF so we know what it is?

Sorry, src was avi > surprise surprise, you will love it.

I'm just not going to go through the effort of putting something onto my 3DS without knowing what it is first. You may be correct, and I may love it, but I will never know.

It's just typical on forums for people to post screenshots or gifs of their custom work.

I can't seem to get this to work with BootCtr9, am I supposed to replace the boot manager payload or the Reinand one?

\arm9loaderhax.bin (bootanim9) > \arm9payload.bin (CFW or Bootmanager) > whatever comes next

 

[Hector_of_Troy]

Doesn't work, white screen then it skips to boot manager

 

[mgrev]

Awesome work!

Iquickly played with it before going to work.

Top Screen :

Bottom Screen :

The top screen in in french, I will make an english one later, time to go to work.

@Wolfvak : I have a request : can you make a version whith screens init black instead of white, it will be more seamless for contributions like mine for example. Great work btw, thx for the release
