Watching Videos With Rockbox?

<< < (2/2)

froggyman:
It would be cool if someone were to take the time and reverse engineer apple's firmware to see how it uses the chip and then write a plugin to use the video accelerator chip. With this rockbox would then be a complete replacement to the iPod video's OF, but i dont see this happening in the near future...

Please be specific about which ipod you're talking about.  Rockbox plays video well on the ipod Nano for example:

i was talking about the ipod 80gig 5.5gen

Download WinFF (http://winff.org/html/) and import your videos.  I think you can make the audio have less bitrate, but you might have to go into the command line.  Also, turn dithering off in MPEG player settings.
