•Step 1
Download Moonshell and DPG Tools. Moonshell is a "homebrew" Nintendo
DS application that allows users to package a variety of content types
for running on Nintendo DS. DPG (a combination of DS and the file
format MPEG) is the format that your movie files will be converted to
for use on Nintendo DS, and DPG Tools facilitates that conversion.
Download this software and extract all files to your computer, taking
note of the extract location.
•Step 2
Download the DLDI (Dynamically Linked Disc Interface) file for your
Nintendo DS flash card (see Resources). Extract this file to
Moonshell's "DLDI" folder. Download the DLDI Graphic User Interface
(see Resources). This will allow you to install the DLDI file to your
card. Unzip this to the same directory in which Moonshell is
installed.
•Step 3
Plug your Nintendo DS flash card into your computer. Navigate to the
Moonshell directory and run the file "setup.exe." Follow the
instructions to specify the location and model of your flash card.
Once you have given Moonshell the required information, it will
install the software to your flash card.
•Step 4
Run the DPG Encoder. This is part of DPG Tools and should have been
unzipped to your Moonshell directory already. If not, it is contained
in the "MoonShell Win Tools" ZIP file under the filename "DPGENC.EXE".
DPG Encoder will ask you to specify a video to be converted. Within
the encoder, specify the video file you want to watch on your Nintendo
DS. Specify the location for the file to be converted to and click
"Start." Wait for the video file to convert. Depending on the size of
the original video, this could take a while.
•Step 5
Copy the converted DPG video to your Nintendo DS flash card. Eject and
remove the flash card from your computer and plug it into your
Nintendo DS. Turn on your Nintendo DS. The installed software will
allow you to navigate to the video file and start it playing by
pressing the "A" button
