Can decode MP3 and ATRAC3+ via Media Engine with CPU set at 20Mhz, OGG Vorbis with CPU set at 50Mhz, MP3 via libMAD with CPU set at 70Mhz, FLAC with CPU set at 100Mhz. With battery at 100% and display set to minimum brightness it should last 9 hours.

Yossi released Categorii for Nintendo Wii.

Quote:

Do you have too many apps listed in your HBC? Do you rarely play apps starting with “W” anymore because it takes too long to scroll all the way down to there? Have you ever installed an app but never played it because it got lost in the clutter? Your misery ends now. Introducing, Categorii!

lordbla successfully compiled the MPlayer-sources optimized by Ingenic. It can already play music and videos!

Here comes an update:

http://rapidshare.de/files/48275911/mplayer_kernels_config.tar.gz.html

Here it is, the new version of the ingenic mplayer. For an update, you only have to replace the executables and the config-file.

It has improvements and regressions. Most videos I’ve tested ran very very well, some even better then with the media-player in the native firmware, but in some ff/rev will result in a loss of video-output. That may very well be a configuration issue, a little testing by the community may do wonders here.

OSD is still disabled because it is lagging.

Please, everyone, mess around with the config-file and tell me what you experience.

Have fun. I think this release is a valuable addition to the native media-player and dingux.
