subject: New R4i Card Now Proposal Music Playback [print this page] The R4i card must be one of the robust and solid flash cards Ive had the pleasure of reviewing. Its solid as a rock with no chips producing from its front label. The case is a nice addition as its padded for extra durability. The wrist strap is nothing unusual. The Micro SDHC tag Reader is USB v2.0 attuned, but Ive used quicker ones. However, if you dont own one its an added bonus. Overall I say the contents of the package are enormous.
Like most Slot 1 flash cards that use Micro SDHC cards as their storage medium youll have to locate and extract the file system onto the R4i card. After trip to the URL printed on the label in the inside of the box I downloaded the ENG_1.54.rar firmware which when extracted came exposed to be 15.1 MB (15,921,152 bytes). All that is required is to copy over the contents of the archive to your Micro SDHC R4i card and youre almost there.
The next thing to do is replica over any multimedia files you want on your Dsi. These comprise MP3, text, pictures and movies. However, movies must be first converted into the DPG format which the built in multimedia player Moon Shell uses to playback your multimedia files. One would expect the inclusion of Moon Shell v2.00 as this is a newer flash tag, but they are still including v1.0 in the firmware wrap up. However, you can install Moon Shell v2.00 pretty easily on your own R4i card.
You will probably want to separate your multimedia files into sub-folders on the SD Card (i.e. make folders named harmony, Videos, Text, Homebrew and Games) and then copy over all of your multimedia files into those folders. Remember, you should only copy over free homebrew games and backups of games you own on your R4i card. Its highly illegal to copy over games you dont own (no exceptions!).
