Last time, there was a youtube video which showed us something plays RMVB directly. Now, new video comes out. The new video shows us more interface views on the bottom screen, and according the interface, surely it is not moonshell. You should also go to see it through the link below:

According GBATEMP's claim, it is some kind of slot1 hardware, as you can see below:

"I've just been confirmed by a reliable source (who wishes to remain anonymous) that this is not a hoax and is currently a WIP. It is a new slot1 card that will be announced shortly! Unfortunately we're not able to divulge any more information! But we'll remain sceptical until we have the product in our hands to test for ourselves."

See, I told you a RMVB player couldn't be done with standard DS/DSi hardware. They are using an FPGA to do the work of video decompression.

Interesting, they say the add-on card will work with all DS, DS lite, and DSi models.

I'm not sure I understand the benefit of loading a huge file onto an SD memory card and playing 720x480 video at 15 FPS on a LCD screen that is only 256x192.
