Transfering/converting pictures on 360 (not uploading online)

[dougitydog]

I am having trouble getting this to work, I am doing everything just like last year and it isnt working, extracting it using xplorer360 and then dropping it on the conversion script...anyone having the same problem? help?

Yeah, it looks like a new scripts is going to have to be written. Obviously by someone who knows more about such things than I.

I wrote the conversion app last year (and I'm always lurking...)

I hadn't even thought about reworking it, but I'll take a look.

That'd be awesome. I think the pics from the memory card would be higher resolution, but that's just a guess.

Could you also look at the .mjp video files?

OK, I've updated the photo conversion script for this year's game.

The bad news is that the game no longer saves the files at 1280x720. For '08, 640x360 is the best we're gonna get.

It's definitely a step backwards. Because they store images on the EA servers at the smaller resolution, I assume they want your 360 CPU to do the resizing work instead of theirs.

Looking into .mjp now. It appears to be a file format for mobile phones.

Good stuff again Goalkeeper. I remember you made the conversion tool last year and I used it extensively lol. My fear this year was that the images would not be the same resolution as last year, and it appears those fears weren't unfounded. I enjoyed making desktop wallpapers with those pics. Good thing I didn't return 06. If you manage to make an mjb converter that would be awesome. Thanks again man.

Not having a whole lot of luck with the mjp files... still trying.

Yeah, I couldn't find anything. A converter would be awesome though. Then we wouldn't have to deal with EA's buggy site.
