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

[pbanj]

I have tried to make my own boot animation and everything worked quite nicely. The only problem that I have is that the animation is way to slow. I use the 30fps config file but it only play at around 15fps. I don't know if there was something wrong with the mp4 file that I used or something but I just can't figure out whats wrong. I hope someone can help me with this.

What speed/class is your sd card?

What speed/class is your sd card?

It's a class 10 SD card with about 80MB/s read and 15MB/s write speed. Shouldn't that be enough?

It should. What A9LH version are you using? Try switching to 64k cluster size and defragmenting all of your animations.

sanic or porn as boot animation?

Don't I have to format my SD card to switch to 64k? Correct me if I'm wrong. ^^

Unfortunately you do. At least when you copy everything back to your SD card it will be faster

Should it be FAT32, exFAT or NTFS?

FAT32, the 3DS does not support any other filesystem. If you have emunand or rednand, get emunand9 and try using that

 

[LiquidFenrir]

3ds only compatible with fat32

Time to wait... When I pulled the files from the SD card I had about 120MB/s. Now I have to put it back with about 15MB/s. I think this might take a while. ^^

Yea, writing speeds are often slower than reading speeds.

The biggest question should be what was the original fps of the mp4?

It was also 30fps.

I changed my SD card to 64k cluster size but is still plays it to slow. :/ I will check if I made a mistake somewhere else tomorrow since it's getting quite late now.

Umm... sorry? At least your 3DS boots faster... right?
Nevertheless, you should follow @Docmudkipz' advice above, he's become quite an expert with dealing with this format.

EDIT: Try converting it with a lower framerate and then manually swapping the framerate for something higher (25 and higher are the fastest)

Kinda late but run

 ffmpeg -i <input>

and double check the fps. The only thing outside of the sd card at this point in the payload that would slow it down is an improper framerate. Send the file to me if it still gives you trouble and I can see what I can do

Will someone walk me through on how to make my own animation? Thanks

put any kind of video or animation file through the scripts linked in the OP. Requires ffmpeg in your path to work. Make sure you know the framerate prior so it doesnt look slow or fast

scripts linked? Should I just drag the video file/gif on "makeanim.sh"?
