No it's for encoding and using xvid sfd mpeg 2 and mpeg 1 etc
It plans to support much higher spec then vcd when i get the time to debug things media center so launching making custom disks theme for emulators etc till movie play back is sorted sound is always a problem we have hardware gpu rendering here but sound is a problem on most dreamcast things..
example the above release works correct on demul no stutter but on hardware the sound stutters so there is some bug error on hardware that's not on dc emulators I know with a lot time this can be fixed
Like any other homebrew bootdreams all these need encoding with Xilisoft and this WIP so movies get out of sync at the moment.. or stutter on real hardware plays perfect on dc emulators etc..

Movies For Xvid for the first time can be 352x240 600 bit rate 64k stereo 44khz sound this keeps every thing in sync
Up to 60fps Video can be very highbitrate but not sound the ACIA chip in the dreamcast is up to 4x slower then the pvr video chip this is hardware rendering is not software so framesize res size is limited by vram not system ram..
Must use Xilsoft Encoder Xvid 352x240 Ac3 audio 64kb stereo 44khz
Now with Trans fonts no black bars around the text any more like the original release
Now with menu music a first for this center In the folder called music the file theme.ogg you would change this for your own menu back ground music it stops and starts and loops when you play a movie it clears shuts down and when you stop a movie it starts up with out problem this was more work then i wanted to be.. It works and is one of the only theme-able movie music photo viewer launches with background menu music on dreamcast.. If not the only one.. MMU pointer cache for safe-ness no more crashing playing movies Clears cache after each movie
Many months work optimizing now using sh4dct asm for Xvid play-back and sh4 math DreamHAL moop
