Wow, this is great. I can't get it to work on Wabbit though, when I send the app to wabbit it doesn't show up in the apps menu...

I noticed some apps don't work in Wabbit. Try a different ROM?

Yeah it's a major PITA to get some apps to work in it. I have to restart Wabbit then try again. Send the app first and make sure when launching Wabbit the calc memory is empty.

The worst of all gotta be MirageOS, but now there's Doors CS 7 which sends fine it seems.

I've been gone without internet, so that's why there were no updates. But I'm back. And as long as my compressor is actually compressing the file (not just spitting out garbage) it is getting about 3/4 compression ratio. So maybe get ready for 4.5 min long videos. We'll just have to see if the file is decompressable.

Welcome back. :D And wow, 4.5 mins long vids would be cool. :D
* DJ Omnimaga whispers something about Global CALCnet Youtube downloader/decompressor for videos that are under 4.5 minutes long. :P (Although I wonder if that's even realistic. :P)

I think Kerm said that gCn supports about 1 fps if running at slightly less than full screen detail (no grayscale).

Now, I'm sure you've all been checking back at this topic every day for an update. And it is finally here.

I've managed to use a modified version of DEFLATE to compress the video files. So far with normal videos, its been getting compression ratios of about 40%-50%. This video right here got a compression ratio of 46%. It's 90 secs and is 1.1 MB.



I also fixed the memory problem. Now all the pages start with 00 and are safe for use on a real calculator.

Edit:
    I've never officially said this. But ON stops the videos. ON creates an interrupt and therefore doesn't require any code to be run until it is pressed, that way the videos play faster.

Edit2:
    Wow. The oldspice video got a compression ratio of 69%. It's now only 230k.

Right now, it's not very easy. I just converted a section of a youtube video for my calc. The process was youtube >realplayer> flv >super> wmv >moviemaker> wmv >super> mp4 >super> jpg >gimp> bmp >fourvid> 8xk.

Hopefully though, if I can figure out how .avi files work. The conversion will be a few steps shorter.

On Super's website, I requested that they add support for direct video->bmp conversion.  They said that they would consider my suggestion.  Hopefully, if that is added, it will help to eliminate that step! :)

YES YES YES!

SUPER listened to my suggestion; I just downloaded the latest version, and it now supports direct video to .bmp conversions! :)
