MVE file playback

[kickback]

Would it be possible to add support for the MVE file format? I have tried unsuccessful to convert this format to AVI and to play in Winamp.

It was a format used in old games. If needed, I could upload an example of this file.

I could upload an example of this file.

Yes, please, do it. And tell us which player is able to play these files, if any.

It seems FFmpeg is able to play these files since version 0.4.8:

http://libav.org/general.html

version 0.4.8:
- Wing Commander III Movie (.mve) file playback subsystem (Mike Melanson and Mario Brito)
- Interplay MVE playback subsystem (Mike Melanson)

Hey, thanks for the replies, sorry for the late reply from myself. I have uploaded one of the MVE video files from a game I have.

It is from Janes Longbow Gold, not from any of the games mentioned in any forums related to the MVE format but it must be the same format as it came out at around the same time.
