“I have uploaded the uEZ Video Conversion Guide to Sourceforge.
sourceforge.net/projects/uez/files/uez/v...n_Guide.zip/download
This guide explains how to convert videos for playback through a high-speed SD card.
It also contains the necessary tools (for use on a Windows PC) to convert videos from many standard formats.
The video playback function is available in uEZ 2.05 or later with all LPC1788 uEZGUI units that have a high-speed 4-bit SD/microSD card available.
For currently available uEZGUIs, hardware such as the uEZGUI-EXP-DK or the upcoming uEZGUI-EXP-BRKOUT have a 4-bit microSD slot available.
In the uEZ 2.05 standard FDI demos, you will need to add
#define APP_DEMO_VIDEO_PLAYER 1
to Config_Build.h to enable the video player.
You will need to use a quality brand-name microSD card for the video playback to work correctly.
You will also need a large amount of free hard drive space to convert the video as the process will generate a large number of uncompressed Targa files.
The µEZGUI-1788-43WQR can play back full screen video at 15 FPS.
The µEZGUI-1788-70WVT can play back a 480×272 video in a portion of the screen also at 15 FPS.”
