I just can't wait for the release

What with 'iReader' for the viewing Text/Pictures, & now the 'iPlayer' for Video/Music - All I need now is a selection of PDA type plugins (e.g TXT editor/File Editor/Calendar/Calculator/Planner etc) & I guess I won't really need Moonshell2 anymore
& before anyone says - use 'DSOrganise' - I already do, but it would be nice to go STRAIGHT to some of the features that it has from the plugin menu (I've never use the Browser/IRC or HB database & wish I could get rid of those)

@ Black_Knight_666: apparently it can support the following

• Video?Avi,Rm/Rmvb,Mpeg,3gp,Flv,Mov,Wmv
  Audio?mp3,wma,ape,flav,wav,aac,ogg,ra,m4a

It seems it can handle any resolution BUT the larger it is the more likely it will suffer from picture corruption & stutters

2 days left
Can't wait.

 

Yeah really. Do you think they could be convinced to change it back to HALP?

Seriously, who would want that "fixed?"

 

maybe i'm showing my age here, but any subs which are external files (.sub, .ass, .srt) used to be called "soft-subs" as opposed to hard-subs which are encoded with the video. does mkv contain the vid and subs but the subs aren't hard-coded and can be extracted as a file? the mkv i tested with subs worked, but i don't know how the vid was encoded. sorry for my mkv ignorance, its not a scene standard and i rarely come across it as a format.

-another world

 

Finally, they officially recognize what everybody knew, the supercard team made the iplayer.

And this seems that the iplayer is practically dead, sad for me, I bought it because I thought coming from sc team it was gonna have great support, how wrong I was.

At least they could launch a firmware update that makes the iplayer compatible with scds2 (not with ds roms, Im only interested on homebrew, emus) and then forget about iplayer if they want.

 

The flv can be some containers and holds various a/v code, looking forwarding the compatibility.

 

this is the end for DPG videos for SCD2 users looks like i will have to add avi videos in my DPG site XD

 

If you're talking about the video I sent you, then the subs were hard coded.


Anyway, having only .srt support is not a big deal.
It's very easy (and quick) to convert subs files - all you gotta do is download
Subtitle Workshop (which is 100% free), load your subs file, and then save as SubRip (.srt).
Shouldn't take more than 20 seconds...

For extracting subs from an MKV, I suggest using MKVextractGUI (search for "MKVtoolnix"),
and just as I wrote on the SC forum, If there's a dual audio MKV file, the SC2 video plug-in will (most likely) play only the default audio file, so if you want it to play the other audio file, you gotta extract the video, your chosen audio file and subs file (if there is one), and then merge the video file and the audio file with mkvmerge (which is also contained in the MKVtoolnix package - which is also 100% free, btw), and leave the subs file (if there is one) outside - so the SC2 will be able to read it, as I suppose it won't be able to read the subs if they were inside the container.


Thanks for the info btw
