I have a supercard SD mini, and, apart from playing games, I also used it to watch videos and listen to music using the filmplay.gba. I upgraded to an EZ flash omega, bu when I try to use this program, I get a black screen, and if I press the start button, a message pops up saying: "warning, card has not been formatted". Does anyone know how to fix this? if not, does anyone know if there's another program for watching videos and listening to music for the ez flash omega?

Not familiar with the supercard stuff but it is probably tied to the cart itself with the omega (or anything vaguely modern) not being compatible.

There are some very limited video and audio options for the GBA which kind of made sense back when but today will be horrendously clunky.

For video most would probably look to meteo but it is limited (you might do OK for cartoons and short clips but TV shows are going to be a split into several parts job).

Audio then has a few options, more still if you want to go into the sequenced audio world.

Compare either to the DS, never mind 3ds or, even worse, modern phones and tablets and it is a nightmare. I did use my GBA for a while for AV purposes but dropped it as soon as moonshell on the DS became acceptable.

Meteo AVI2GBA is your best bet for video. I use it for music as well, with either the album art or music video playing. If you want to load movies, you'll have to split them up into parts. Not too much of an issue for me, but to each their own.

    Only one I liked was that mikes hard lemonade tea, but i couldn't drink it all day
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @K3Nv2, gonna make a jumping sprite
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    You can add platform character behavior to any sprite, just disable the default controls for it, and make it jump/move in your code. The rectangle behavior is cool too for enemies.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, how is it cool?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, and i meant jumping sprite for the player
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    It makes it move around constantly in different directions, like a enemy moving back n forth from one side to other
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, and i dont think the rectangular movement behavior works for platform games
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea it does. And you can add platform character behavior to your own charcter, and it will have move and jump already setup for you, space bar is jump, arrows move
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, i already added the platform character behaviour to the player since i started doing this
