New submission from PabloACZ <[email protected]>: The CRI Sofdec video format is widely used by videogames since the Sega Saturn era. As far as I know, there are two versions of the SFD codec; only the v1 is playable so far, but the v2 that was released on the GCN/PS2 early years is not, and it is being used right now by a lot of games for the consoles of this generation.
I know these SFD files are very problematic, but I just wanted to give a chance to the latest SVN revision of FFmpeg (which at the time being is the r25859). So, it is simple as that: I was trying to convert the SFD video files from Metroid Other M and Sonic Colors, and almost every one give a blocky output, with wrong colors (but still, there are some SFD's on Sonic Colors that use the v1 of the codec, so they can be played/transcoded without problems). Please note the problem is only video-related. The sound is perfect (ADX_ADPCM, if I recall correctly). The command line I used was the simplest one: ffmpeg -i opening_us.sfd opening_us.avi. I've uploaded a sample to the upload.ffmpeg.org FTP server. It's located on MPlayer/incoming/Sofdec as blocky_output_after_transcoding.sfd, and the info.txt file is included. Please note I had to cut down the file size; it was 90MB originally. Hope that helps. ---------- messages: 12788 priority: normal status: new substatus: new title: CRI Sofdec Movies (SFD files) aren't decoded correctly type: bug ________________________________________________ FFmpeg issue tracker <[email protected]> <https://roundup.ffmpeg.org/issue2402> ________________________________________________
