Hurray. I'm tired too, but its only 11:07 PM right now. 9.5 hours of being on your feet at work can do that. It'd be nice if anyone who's tried it could give me a heads up, I'm probably gonna burn a disc with a bunch of new stuff i havent played yet.

They perform poorly. Only the EPIA-M is even reasonably fast when paired with their "fastest" C3 processor (mhz means nothing). The standard EPIA is horrible, you couldnt even begin to play CS on it. The EPIA-M has more memory bandwidth, and I guess it could play CS at low settings. The ha...

Please don't say that the GBA cannot be emulated on Dreamcast. Say that it WON'T, not that it CAN'T. Those with the talent do not have the interest, but that doesn't make it impossible. The GBA is using an ARM CPU running at 16.7 Mhz. Heck, although the bus connecting SH4 - ARM is probably too slow ...

I tend to look for solutions which are fast, reliable, and easy. That usually means Divx/Xvid with many current encoding programs, with mp3 or AC3 for audio. I would love to be able to discard MP3 in favor of Ogg, but not until its container of choice (.ogm) becomes more popular and more programs ar...

When you say say MP2, that sounds like Mpeg-1 layer 2, like MP3 is Mpeg-1 layer 3. So if you mean mpeg-2 audio, say so. Don't confuse ppl.

Yeah, and its not like it hasn't proven itself. I didn't hear anyone complaining about the shoddy quality music on Dreamcast games last time I was playing Skies of Arcadia... and the videos are good quality too.

Just wondering... In DivX Player 2.1, under the Options, you can turn down the Playback Quality to *surprise surprise* make the video run more smoothly on low-end computers. ... My question: Do any of the DC DivX players (DCDivX 4 or bero's) utilize a similar feature? The modified ffmpeg decoder Be...

I noticed that a corrupt avi file that would normally Crash on my PC at certain parts of the movie doesn't in the DC Movie Player! I hate video files with problems like that. It also could be an .asf that was renamed .avi by someone, I've had a few of those. ASF files have this tendency to die when...

This player already surpasses other homebrew DC players, and on top of that plays both a multitude of media files as well as standard VCD/SVCD discs. For being in development for such a short period of time, its performance and features are amazing. I can see this player going down as THE media play...

CV isn't all that. For one they don't have a DC vision right now, damnit. Oh, and the popups don't bother me because they support a KA site and fast servers for local downloads of all the latest DC stuff! Heck, the only thing you should do is make a faster web site, meaning you can make something pr...

That's what he was talking about. Hacking the N64 ROMs to remove/resample stuff. They have removed videos from DC games so they'd fit on a CD-R. That kind of stuff. What, you think he meant cracking open a cart and tearing stuff out?
