Playing Video on the Handheld Pokitto Game Device @Pokitto #Gaming

POKITTO is a do-it-yourself gaming gadget you assemble and program yourself. With Pokitto, you can learn programming & building electronics in a fun way.

Over on spinalcode.co.uk, they recently managed to get full screen video streaming on the Pokitto!

They extracted the individual frames from a movie file using ffmpeg. A windows batch file first evaluates the video and creates a 256 colour table, this is part of the secret. Only 256 colours are used for the whole video which helps get it playing on the device.
