So, my mp3 player is branded "Eldor", but i think that's just a brand..often they sell the same kind of player with a lot of names..!

Anyway, I think (according to what i can read from the content of a .ini file in the conversion software), it uses a chip M7103.

From the user's manual, it can plays *.mtv. Well, i tried other softwares to encode in mtv format, but none of the video created seemed to play on my mp3 player..from here:

http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-514943.html

the post from"clubsoda", i think there are different kind of mtv formats: mine seemes to be that ALIAVI cited there.

Anyway, it's own software works good on Win, and now also on WINE! ;9

BTW: to make it run on WINE you have also to install directx9 and codecs like ffdshow, for example by winetricks...but the real problem was about the qedit.dll, as I said in the previous post.

Here's a link to the software (it's on my altervista space, you can download and upload on the forum, they says it's for free distribuction):

And here's also a video converted by the software:

PS: it seems to be good to first convert the video with something like avidemux in xvid avi format, with mp3 sound, 25 fps, then to use the software.
The above works great for the Jensen SMPV-1GBUA , SMPV-2GBUA , SMPV-4GBUA & SMPV-8GBUA models too !
