Yes, but movies must be in .dpg format. There's a thread somewhere around here with a bunch of pre-converted videos, and you can find many more at GBATMW. Alternatively, you can convert your own videos. There should be info on that both here and at GBATMW.

I wouldn't recommend using the SUPER converter.

I recommend it. The thread is in the NDS Trading Station; however most of the links are dead due to GBATMW being hacked not too long ago.

okay. can it convert .gif files as well or can the r4 play them normally?

Yep, but it'll need additional programs to make .gif into a movie then use that program to convert it into .dpg.Anyway I've tried watching subbed movies in my moonshell but the text is really small. >_< I don't recommend watching them in your DS.

thanks. do you know of the other programs?

What? .gif files are images. I dunno if Moonshell supports animated .gifs, though.

mr snow · #7thanks. do you know of the other programs?

If you want it so badly, you can make .avi from pictures with adobe flash CS (used to be macromedia flash 8 ). :)

its for a few gifs i already have. i dont have the pics.

Yep, gifs are pics right? You can turn those into movies with that program. But it requires a bit of learning to get used to it.

Yes it can also u must convert it to dpg. format but if u want to convert to avi. im not sure

Yeah, there is a little to no chance that there's a program out there to direct convert a .gif into .avi. So you must first make an .avi from the .gif (with this Macromedia Flash or any movie maker), then convert the .avi to .dpg. :)

Yes thanks for the backup help Kamui :D

hey i found a great program for it. 4mediaDPGconverter. desined specifically for the nds. if you want to convert gifs you will need to make them into a proper movie first though. i just use windows movie maker for that.

That's brilliant, I didn't think of that /facepalm
