I saw that right after, this isn't news?

I couldn't even find my post, I assume because I posted it in the news section it was subject to approval, so they booted me to "General"

Like I say, this isn't news worthy? X11 is awesome too, but what about the mplayer crashing so much and hard?

If you want to support just the ones that are hardware accelerated, then you can only support the formats that the 940 binary supports.

I've had a quick look through the code, and it seems the 940 binary supports the following formats (I'm assuming 'D' at the end means 'Decode' and 'E' means 'Encode', and so removed and placed into seperate section appropriately)

Decoders:

MP4 -
MP4_DIVX3 - These three are kinda obvious
H263 -
MJP - Motion JPEG?
WMV - Interesting! Maybe we could patch this in without licensing issues :)
MP1 - MPEG Audio Stream, Layer I
MP2 - MPEG-1 Audio Layer II
MP3 - MPEG-1 Audio Layer III

Encoders (not really interesting, as we have no source to encode from)

MP4
MJP

and of course, anything based on the above should work also, if you get it into the appropriate format for the decoder...

I wonder if the audio player uses the hardware mpeg decoders?

I've been attempting this and I'm having problems, first with audio, but now it just locks up. :p

Maybe I'll try the .MP4 container first.

Could you encode from the framebuffer?
Makeing small gp2x movies without useing tvout would be great.

Yeah, or using an external device to stream in the video and then encode it. (*cough* USB *cough*)

I want my GP2X-DVR! :p
