3gp is a low-res MPEG4 format used by 3G phones for sending videos between each (eg via MMS). MPlayer (used by most Linux media players) has no problems figuring out how to play it - its a little more tricky to generate the format from say a regular AVI or MP4 file, though. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Prof Russell Standish Phone 0425 253119 (mobile) Mathematics UNSW SYDNEY 2052 hpco...@hpcoders.com.au Australia http://www.hpcoders.com.au ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College lectures, archives, unsubscribe, maps at http://www.friam.org
