playing mpeg-1 natively....

[bighornsheep]

I Have the nx73
with the movieplayer, it says "Movieplayer format" and "MPEG format" or something.

I know how to play the MQV files..

anyway to just transfer a MPG or MPEG file to ms/cf and play it natively?

The search function is your friend.
For short: Yes, you can play MPEG1 movies, but it's hard to find a nice compressionrate to get it to play smoothly and you need much more space for the same movie in mpeg1 compared to mqv.

errr...

all the times I give people a nice response.........
I firgured it out myself....
thanks for the help you didnt give me!

[Egalus]

NP.

I did give you a nice respond and you would have been faster doing a small search than even formulating your question.

I love people that are to lazy to use the search function that afterwards complain about those, that told them, that this function exists.

Hi bighornsheep

I dont have a problem with compression etc using MPEG1 files although ripped DVD movies are quite large. I have several full ripped movies which average 350MB or so in size. The real advantage for me is that its one file rather than 2-3 truncated MQV files al la Image converter, (although I think this has a work around now). As I'm sure you know the video BB will point the way to DVD ripping and third party programs.

Cheers
