You look like very nice in this software ;) So, I downloaded the Elephant Dream video and it works very well, I tested aa couple of things: I didn't see any bugs... I have a couple of videos are encoded in .mpg or mpeg and I tried to rename it like that: Alexisonfire - Accidents.mpg to Alexisonfire - Accidents.m2v and I droped it in the HDD. When I try to play it, it plays but there are some weird colors and shapes and I can just see the up of the video. I would know if there is a solution about my problem.

Thanks for answering!

linuxstb:
".mpg" is normally a "program stream" consisting of both video and audio.

".m2v" is just a raw video stream.

So you can't just rename, you have to extract (demux) the video from the .mpg file.  One Windows app that comes to mind for that is "pvastrumento", but I'm sure most video editing/processing software can do it.

Under Linux, I would just use mplayer:


--- Code: ---mplayer -dumpvideo -dumpfile myvideo.m2v myvideo.mpg

--- End code ---

Ok, and how can I extract just the video??? With what program...

I found a bug: The batery indicator says that it's always fully charged of always at 100%. When I stop the player and boot with originl firmware, the indicator says the it's to 25%. So, a bug is found!

Llorean:
Before you claim it's a bug, are you sure it's a feature that's supposed to work yet?

Soader03:
Dunno...
