Up until now I've been pressing "o" while playing a video to see the video codec of a file that hasn't been flagged yet. Using the name that comes directly after " video: ", I have been able to make all the flags .png files use the same name, reload the skin and the flag appears. Until now...

I found a video using msmpeg4v2, so like the others I created an msmpeg4v2.png and reloaded the skin, however this time, nothing shows. Is there any specific name I need to use for this codec?

EDIT: Using MediaInfo, it returns the codec as S-Mpeg 4 v2, also tried several combinations of that w/ and w/o spaces, still nothing.

Export your video database and check that films codec.

Arcanthur, would you mind updating the wiki with any videocodecs you find that are not yet listed there?

i initially added all the codecs i'd found in my collection.
having a complete list in the wiki would certainly help other skinners in getting their flags up to date.


cheers.

Export your video database and check that films codec.

Or check it's name with

Code:

<label>ListItem.VideoCodec</label>

Or does that say "msmpeg4v2" ?

Export your video database and check that films codec.

That worked, it showed as mp42 in the .nfo file. Which, had I checked the wiki I wouldn't have had the issue

@ ronie, I will gladly add the new ones I've found to the wiki. I've found several for video.
