SVCD/ VCD on DC

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.

Well...I wold if I could figure out how to make a working sbi...I've tried to make a DSNES sbi and now this one and neither one works....

Somebody should write a tutorial...and unless I can be told how to make one before somebody else makes one, I'll put it up....

Later!

I don't know.. It reboots when I select it in Dream Inducer :?
It also wouldn't boot with DC Hakker.

I don't get that either. I've tried several times myself to make a .sbi and had the same result... I thought it was just me but apparently it isn't.

Does it play loose MPG files burned on a CD?? That's what I'd really love... a nice quality MPG player.

I think a lot of people don't understand that the SoftDec decoder is good, but it expects SFA audio which takes much less CPU than Layer II audio. That's why MPG players are often jumpy... also perhaps because I think Gypplay uses 16-bit video mode, rather than native YUY2 which the Dreamcast does support but perhaps not easy to utilise. This would be faster and much better image quality.

Oh PS I would LOVE if Bero made a new release, Gypplay is good but it could be so much better... to play VCD/XVCD and normal MPEG-1 files. SVCD is not really an option because the DC CPU isn't fast enough.

Well the video is apparently almost perfect on SVCD on this release..... just the audio is out of Sync... so I guess maybe the DC's CPU is "just" Powerful enough eh? ;)

You need to download either a Nero or DiscJuggler image of the program and burn it to a CD, all by itself.
