uDCDivX v0.1 test, need some volounteers

This forum is for discussion pertaining to homebrew and indie software for the Dreamcast, such as homebrew games, emulators/interpreters, and other homebrew software/applications. Porting requests and developmental ideas are not to be made here; you can make those here. If you need any help burning discs for homebrew software, this is the place to ask as well.

Of course it wouldn't work with a video bitrate of 4015 Kbps what would you expect.
THAN/THEN get it right peoples!

I gave it a test. It did not load up in uDCDivX. Just hung at the black screen of death.
I don't understand, none of the options used alter the bitstream and the DX50 (divx 5) fourCC ID code was used. I will investigate further, but I fear I might have to go for DivX 5.xx like you guys said.


Electroinalium: if this clip had an average video bitrate of 4015kbps, its size would be over 36 Megabytes instead of being just over 6 Megabytes.


[edit]I will upload a version of 2.avi with the DIVX fourCC ASAP.

What kind of settings are you making these video files with? DcDivX supports 1 to 1000 kbps (1000 if you know what you're doing). 4000 will not cut it at all.

Here is the VirtualDub File Information:

it says the Data Rate is 590. Very odd indeed. You probably selected a Quality Based setting, so click Target quantizer and make it Target bitrate like this:

Image

That way it will use a Constant Bitrate. Of course the video quality will go down.

Just two passes and a final video size of 5500kbytes. None of the features used alter the bitstream, so there shouldn't be a problem. Could you please try 2.avi?

It doesn't work either. You're obviously doing something wrong with the encoding, or that XviD isn't supported by uDCDivX.

and get a Dreamcast, they are $ 30 on eBay :wink:

I can probably get one for less ($20 bucks) that will be checked and cleaned, but I'm in between jobs and have a bunch of debts right now. I really can't even afford to spend 20 bucks for now. Anyway, I am suspending this test until I figure out what's going on.

The problem seems to stem from the muxing program. The audio and video in this try have been muxed with a different program.

Ok, there's only one more thing I can try, then I'll just switch to DivX 5.xx.

Hey I tried this player but it doesn't work. Dcdivx doesn't work either. The only one that works is the one Bero made but with sync problems.
