Grab the core product, and all the plugins save the Sony and Zodiac specific ones. There is also a plugin providing AAC support available elsewhere. I run TCPMP on my Zodiac, and it's the killer app for the platform. Reams have been written elsewhere about the best way to rip your DVD to a form you can drop onto an SD card and play on the Zodiac. AVI files are a directly supported format, and I have about a gigabyte of video on one of my Zodiac SD cards. > ~ John ______ Dennis ------------------------------------ Latest pedit/pToolSet/LapTopHack at http://www.osuweb.net/~pc/pca/pc_all.zip pedit/pToolSet/LapTopHack scripting info/resources at http://www.peditors.com Peditors Forum http://groups.yahoo.com/group/peditors Unsubscribe by writing to peditors-unsubscribe-hHKSG33Tihh4sT85+ipIM4ckdKdSAMto@public.gmane.org!
