Atomic and avi files possable?
« on: February 20, 2006, 08:12:49 pm »
if not avi files is another format able to play?

Atomic is becoming my dream entertainment FE
only a few things missing that I would love to see.
GBA
2600
PS1 ( not really a must... I have a modded PS1 and PS2 )

I think you allready have a mp3 player... need to check more into it

But My favorite movie's on Hard drive with my console PC would be really great with the same FE.

Hi,

For modules you ask they are coming soon.

Concerning Video. Atomic include a Video JukeBox. It can play all format that can play Mediaplayer . (to try if your media player can play the video , just run mplayer2.exe that is in your windows or windows\system32 folder).  If you have the right codecs , your video will be played fullscreen without problems.  Codecs pack can be found on web.
Atomic can play XVID video that way , if used has Video Jukebox. (not snap).


Now, if you want use VIDEO SNAP. I support all AVI format as soon as the codec is here. But i have problem with the XVID avi format.  After investigation i found the issue.
The XVID codec is not complete! One function is not implemented , and that is a function i use. for video snap.  >:(

But i have found a work around.  By removing the XVID codec and using another codec.

To remove the XVID codec , go to control panel -> sound and Multimedia -> Hardware Tab ->select Video codec in the list -> click properties   -> Properties tab -> Select "XVID MP4 Video codec" -> Click remove.

Then you can try the video snap in Atomic. If the video displays it is ok, it not, it is because you don't have a compatible codec already installed. So try to find and install this codec :

DSH   4CC   DIVX
DSH   Friendly Name   DivX Decoder Filter
DSH   Driver or Wrapper   H:\WINDOWS\System32\divxdec.ax
DSH   DirectShow CLSID   4cc: divx     {78766964-0000-0010-8000-00AA00389B71}
FIL   File Description   DivX
