    I was told that the DSTT card can play media & music. I copied the menu files from my other card & put a movie on it but it doesn't play. It doesn't even appear on the list. All that comes up is SysOption in the top left corner, then a column for Icon, name & size which are all empty. If I click on SysOption all I get is Default reset off/on, PASSME Mode, GBA Mode Power Off & brightness. Does the media have to be a certain format, I have tried MP4 & avi but none work. Any help out there?

    Films MUST be in DPG - use SUPER to convert.

    Moonshell will play MP3's

    I've also noticed that although nds game files can be anywhere on the card (in the root directory, in a separate folder, etc), the video and audio files must be in the root directory or Moonshell won't see them.

    I've downloaded "Super", but can't see a file output showing as DPG.
    BTW what do you mean in the root. All I have on the card is TT menu folder & 2 TT menu files

    Look for a setting called Nintendo DS...

    The root of the memory card is the main folder of the card. For example if your memory card is drive H:, then the root would be H:\

    A subfolder would be something like H:\Roms\

    The video/audio files will go the same place as those 2 TT menu files, not in another folder.

    Thanks for the help. Films playing ok now although (getting a bit greedy here) it would be better with a straight forward stop pause FFwd etc like a media bar along the bottom. Thanks again folks
