THANKS! johnny!
what settings should i use when i encode the videos? :)

HaXor

I use this settings:

Audio:
-Sampling Rate: 32000     -Bitrate: 128 kbps
-use mencoder.exe. A special audio codec doesn't correspond

Video:
Width: 256              Aspect Ratio: 4/3 (fills your screen)    
Bitrate: 192 kbps     Framerate: 15 fps
Brightness: 100%
Blur: off (slide slider to the right)

Sometimes i even need to flip the video, but you'll see that soon enough when you're encoding it.. :D

hmm i see an xvid encoder, but i dont see output settings..
am i not using the right app? lol

ow sorry dude.. i thought you ment the dpgenc.exe video encoder, sice that is the one you will need to convert your videofiles into DS-playable-media aka DPG (Ds-mPeG). You can directly convert any video file with this program which can be found here:

Unzip it, execute dpgenc, select your language (japanese = default) and use the directions in my other post :D

I'm actually having problems with his latest version there too. I'm just on my way to work, but when I'm back I'll post an older version that works for me. The app has always been a little finicky though. Works I'd say about 75% of the time. When it works though, the results are amazing. The quality is at least 10x better than the encoder included with Moonshell.
