I tried to get this to work, but even after following all the instructions, I get no page count field error.

is there any way to use an .avi file instaed of a .vwm and a .wav file? Is there a convertor for that?

btw: what I really would like to see in a future version is an option to select the quality so you can have more than 14 (on not SE calcs) or 45 (on SE calcs) secounds of video on it. What also would be great, but i doubt that it's possible, would be reading from an USB flash drive.

The problem with using a .avi file is that I don't have a way to change the bitrate. I'm not very good at win32 and that takes quite a bit of work to make it happen, (including external libraries like FFDShow)

Quality could be possible I guess. I could allow for 4 bit sound and 5 fps. I can imagine that looking and sounding horrible, but it's possible. I'm somewhat looking into USB, but I highly doubt that's going to happen.

can you upload the rickroll video app
I have trouble with .wmv, I get about 720,640 pixels or so
( lov e the nyan cat )

I will soon, although I deleted all of them, so I'll have to remake the videos.


I tried to get this to work, but even after following all the instructions, I get no page count field error.

Where do you get that error at? Is that at TiConnect? If it is, it's probably to8xk malfunctioning or something and I'll pinpoint it.

I have no idea what that means, but NyanMem will delete a good chunk of your archived programs. Only run it right after a Mem Clear.

You can build a statue out of either 1'x1' blocks or 12'x12' blocks. The 1'x1' blocks will take a lot longer, but the final product is worth it.

Yeah, here are the complete instructions for NyanMem.

1. Mem Clear
2. NyanMem
3. Ram Clear
4. Send app

And then to delete the app, all it takes is:

Here's an attached pic of the error. The bottom error is the one I normally receive, saying I have no page count field. The one above it is from when I added the -f flag to the rabbitsign call, resulting in a no page count field, and no date stamp error. The app assembles with the -f flag, but it screws up horribly.

Oh, sorry if I wasn't clear in my directions. Make that "Colors" not "Colors.8xk". BrandonW's To8xk doesn't like extensions.

Speaking of that, I forgot to give those guys credits in my readme.

BrandonW made To8xk.
Floppus Maximus made RabbitSign.

Awesome! It works now. I was just confused because the readme says output.bin, so I thought it needed the ending.

FinalTi, the directions in there were for truVid.exe by itself. But, I'm glad you got confused because I'll make it clearer in the real readme.


AnnoyingOrange, use Super. The actual download link is a bit difficult to get to, but you'll get there eventually ;D And to see how to do it with super, check out my tutorial video.

There's no *nix version, this was hard enough lol.

ben_g, I didn't add that, but you can make the sound like .05 seconds long.

You can choose a blank music file, but I'd like an easier out too :)
