FastVideoDS Encoder is a tool used to encode video files into the FastVideoDS format, which is specifically designed for playback on the Nintendo DS system using TWiLight Menu++ (through FastVideoDS Player).

The encoder is built on top of FFmpeg and supports most input video formats.

User guide

Note: FastVideoDS Encoder requires a CPU with support for AVX2 instructions. If you encounter an error message regarding AVX2 instructions, you will need to either upgrade your CPU or use a more recent computer.

How to use

  • Download the .NET Runtime, and install it.
  • Download the FastVideoDS Encoder and FastVideoDS.bat from the DS-Homebrew Wiki.
  • Place FastVideoDS.bat to the same place as the encoder .exe file.
  • Drag and drop your video into said .bat file.

When this process is done, it should be easy as drag and drop to SD card. Once you put the video on your SD card, it will be ready for playback via TWiLight Menu++ .

Command line

Alternatively, you can run the following command:

FastVideoDSEncoder [-j jobs] input output.fv

Where:

  • -j jobs - Number of concurrent jobs (optional, default: cpu threads / 1.5)
  • input - The input video file. Most formats are supported through FFmpeg.
  • output.fv - The output video file.
