I've been using mjpeg encoded .avi video and that's worked the best for me with GEM on Ubuntu. However, I highly recommend installing GEM with gmerlin (gavl) support as it drastically sped up playback on my machine. I had to compile it in myself but I think there might be a daily build .deb floating around somewhere. To compile, I got gavl libraries etc. from Roman's PPA <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><a href="https://launchpad.net/~reduzierer/+ppa-packages">https://launchpad.net/~reduzierer/+ppa-packages</a><div>
