From: <zappermike_at_comcast.net>
Date: Fri, 04 Jun 2004 01:56:43 +0000 Can this be done? how is it done? I also have a question about the movie viewer. I have downloaded the movies off the website, and they work fine in my recorder. However whenever i try to convert a movie with the gui program it works, but on the recorder its all noise and there is no picture (just a lot of garbled up pixles). Any ideas on how to fix this? On another note i tried to convert through dos, and sadly i keep getting a message telling me that there is no workind avi decompressor. any ideas? plez help. > Send Rockbox mailing list submissions to > rockbox_at_cool.haxx.se > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://cool.haxx.se/mailman/listinfo/rockbox > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > rockbox-request_at_cool.haxx.se > > You can reach the person managing the list at > rockbox-owner_at_cool.haxx.se > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of Rockbox digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
