I converted a children's song CD to a single MP3, using ffmpeg on my linux PC
ffmpeg -i "concat:01.mp3|02.mp3|..." -acodec copy ../playtime_songs.mp3
To make it work on my LeapPad ultra, in LeapPad Manager -> Video Maker, use this in the "optional ffmpeg commands" box
-loop 1 -i C:\static.png -shortest

Otherwise you have no video frames and results in a green screen.
Also, for those having problems with duplicate IDs, this helps:
cd /tmp/; for app in /mnt/nas/leappad/app_archive/*.tar; do tar -xf "$app" meta.inf; echo -e "$(grep PackageID meta.inf)"; echo $(basename "$app"); done > /tmp/xxx && fromdos /tmp/xxx; sed 'N;s/\n/ /' /tmp/xxx | sort; rm /tmp/xxx
PackageID="DEAK-0x00001337-000077" clifford_bigdig.tar
PackageID="DEAK-0x00001337-000078" clifford_school.tar
PackageID="DEAK-0x00001337-000079" clifford_hereclifford.tar

I have not created videos with my app in some time and am currently using windows 10 so I will give it a shot to see if there is an issue and post back when I get a chance.
The auto ID creation was not the best, but did that part of the program rather quickly... sorry

I have a LP Platinum and trying to get some videos on it. I was able to convert them and installing them looks to be successful (the video is in the list), but it is no where to be found on the device when I boot it up. No icon for it or anything anywhere. However, LP Manager claims it's still there. Any ideas? Thanks!

Most likely needs to be added to a database like the Ultra which was only coded in for the Ultra since I had one to test with. The files may be on the device, but if there is a database and the information is not in it, the tablet will not pick it up. I am unsure if it is the same as the Ultra, perhaps I can code it to function the same and you can test it. I can't guarantee the result though.

How do I go about accessing that file to add it? Or I'm willing to test!

I too am having the same issue with the Platinum, cannot find the video file anywhere!

Hello all, I am new to this site and new to my Leap pad ultra. I am using LeapPad manager 7.3.5 to add my movies. I first use FLV to AVI MPEG WMV 3GP MP4 iPod Converter to convert to a movie for the ipod then convert using the amazing LeapPad manager. I have had 100% success so far with only one exception. I have one video that when added, it replaces another that I have added before. It is not a name conflict and I will figure it out. Hello Deak, love your work. I only commented because of aurora733 saying that he was unable to load videos.

So I'm not usually one to give up easily at all, but I attempted to FTP into the Platinum via Developer Mode, and failed miserably. It successfully put the device in Developer Mode, however I was never able to FTP into it to even put it back into Play mode and out of Developer Mode. Windows recognized the LAN adapter and all that, but I couldn't use Filezilla to get into it... It kept rejecting the connection. Maybe the Platinums use a different protocol or block FTP access? I know for sure it was the right IP, because my network scanner picked it up.  At any rate, I just repaired it by hitting the Right D-pad button and Home and powering on, then connecting to LeapFrog Connect to repair so we could play it and connect it to LeapFrog Connect like normal again. I've spent hours upon hours on this, so I'm just going to continue to rely on the Kindle for movies for my kiddo unfortunately. I was really hoping to get this thing to work.  Oh well... LeapFrog, you win. Bastards.

The ID of the video may be conflicting with another ID. The name doesn't matter, just the ID. The app auto adjusts the ID, but was done rather quickly and not really the best.
The Platinum may have a different FTP user / pass or something like that. Maybe one of these days I will end up with one and can debug the device to get the Manager working with it.

hello there, thanks for this gr8 app , except i have a issue perhaps regarding it.
i recently just placed a trailer onto a leappad explorer, but then after fast forwarding through the video then on a white dot in the center of the screen when switching the device off, the leappad can ideally no longer be used properly, yet it can be detected by the computer and programs such as yours , so i deleted both the video and the video player off the device using your program, yet the leappad is still playing up, would you be able to tell me possibly how to fix this, whether i need to reset the leappad or something like that and how it would be possible?
Many Thanks, Kind Regards ~ Mujib
