(Windows users only) - -<p> See also Fabian Merki's <a - href="http://merkisoft.ch/rockbox/">msi-rvf-gallery</a>, a Java program for - building RVF movies out of individual JPEGs. - -<h3>How To Convert AVI to RVF</h3> -<p> - <b><big>This Process Is For Windows Users Only</big></b> -<ol> - -<li> Convert your movie file to an AVI file, uncompressed, and with the size: - 112x64. There are quite a few programs out there that will do this for you, - so I will leave this step up to you. One such program is "BPS Video - Converter" available online. Use google if you need. - -<li> Download the tools required here: - <a -href="http://joerg.hohensohn.bei.t-online.de/archos/video/">http://joerg.hohensohn.bei.t-online.de/archos/video/</a> - Unzip to a PATH, such as C:\RVF, that is easily remembered. - -<li> Press START on your taskbar, choose RUN and type in the box (minus - quotes): "command" You should now be looking at a command prompt. If you - don't know basic DOS commands, here is what you need to know: -<br> - Use 'cd' to change dir (format: cd [dir]) IE: "cd .." to go UP one, "cd - ROCKBOX" to enter a path "ROCKBOX" - -<li> Navigate to your PATH in DOS prompt, using "cd" as illustrated above. - -<li> Run the file, avitoyuv, which was in the packet you earlier downloaded, using the format: -<pre> - avitoyuv [input.avi] [output.yuv] -</pre> - For example, if your AVI movie is called "filename" then you'd put in the following: -<pre> - avitoyuv filename.avi filename.yuv -</pre> - - OPTIONAL: You can name the output file differently, whatever you specify it - will be called. INFO: This can take long to convert. - -<li> Now run the file, halftone, which was in the packet you earlier downloaded, using the format: -<pre> - halftone [input.yuv] [output.rvf] -</pre> - For example, if your YUV output from step 5 is called "filename" then you'd put in the following: -<pre> - halftone filename.yuv filename.rvf -</pre> - - OPTIONAL: You can name the output differently, again. INFO: When this is - done, a long list will appear on your DOS screen and you will be back at the - command prompt again. - -<li> Next step is adding sound to your video file. Run the tool avi2wav using the format: -<pre> - avi2wav [input.avi] [output.wav] -</pre> - For example, if your original file is called "filename" then you'd put in the following: -<pre> - avi2wav filename.avi filename.wav -</pre> - - OPTIONAL: You can name the output differently. - -<li> The extracted audio file must be in mp3 format, so you have to convert the WAV file into MP3. - One option to make this is using the LAME codec. You can download the win32 binary from <a - href="http://mitiok.cjb.net">http://mitiok.cjb.net</a>. - One format used with LAME (good quality/size) is: -<pre> - lame --preset standard [input.wav] [output.mp3] -</pre> - For example, if your audio file is called "filename" then you'd put in the following: -<pre> - lame --preset standard filename.wav filename.mp3 -</pre> - - OPTIONAL: You can name the output differently. Also, you can use other wav to mp3 tool, or even use - other options in the lame command. NOTE: The --preset standard will give you a VBR file, so if you want a - CBR file, just change the preset to --preset cbr [kbps], where [kbps] is the Constant Bit Rate desired. - -<li> Now we have to merge the sound with the video, so run the rvf_mux tool found - in the packet you've downloaded, using the format: -<pre> - rvf_mux [option] [videoinput.rvf] [audioinput.mp3] [output.rvf] -</pre> - For example, if your video file from step 6 is called "filename.rvf" and the audio file from step 7 - is called "filename.wav" then you'd put in the following: -<pre> - rvf_mux filename.rvf filename.mp3 filename_av.rvf -</pre> - - NOTE: You can use any name for the output file, but it's recomended that the name is not the same name - used in the input video file. - You can change the frames per second of Rockbox playback using the -play_fps [fps] option. The default - value is 67.0 fps. - -<li> Copy the .rvf output to your jukebox, load up a recent daily build and - plugins, and kick back and watch the movie! -</ol> - -<p> -Video tools, player: Jörg Hohensohn -<p> -Tutorial: Zakk Roberts -#include "foot.t" |
