DPG for X (dpg4x) is a program that was designed to allow the easy creation of DPG video files on Linux, but now it can also run on OS X and Windows. DPG is a special format of MPEG-1 video specifically made for playback on a Nintendo DS.
Dpg4x is a program that tries to make the DPG video creation as easy as possible on Linux. Since version 2.0 it also runs on Windows and OS X.
Features
- Simple GUI suitable for beginners.
- Includes lots of options for the advanced user.
- Supports individual per-media settings when needed.
- Multiple DPG version support, from DPG0 to DPG4.
- Can process any video file playable by mplayer.
- Encodes your DVD and VCD directly.
- Includes subtitles support.
- Ability to preview the encoding settings.
- Drag and drop support from your favourite file manager.
- Batch processing.
- Multiplatform.
- Multilanguage.
- The dpg2avi script can convert DPG files to AVI format.
User guide
Dpg4x relies on mplayer/mencoder to do it's work, so any video file playable with mplayer can be converted to DPG.
Default Subtitles
If you have problems when adding subtitles to your videos, just include a subtitles file in the folder where the original video file is.
The name of the subtitles file must be the same as the video file, except the extension. To check that everything is ok, play the video file with mplayer (e.g. with the Preview button). As the last step, don't forget to switch to the SUBTITLES section and select Auto as the subtitles source.
DPG2AVI
Since version 1.2, you can encode the DPG video files to AVI format with the dpg2avi script. To use the dpg2avi script, set the DPG and AVI files as parameters. For example:
dpg2avi input_file.dpg output_file.avi
The dpg2avi does not read the dpg4x configuration files. It stores the temporary files in the output directory.
