I can't get movie previews to work in mamewah 1.62b13a. I've gone through all the forum posts I could find but nothing has solved my problem. I have a previous version of mamewah installed and movie previews work great in it. I have ffdshow installed to decode xvid and divx. I have a show movie preview button assigned and have movie previews set to show after 2 seconds. If I set one of the preview movies to show as a mamewah startup vid it plays when mamewah starts. I have the movie_preview_no set to 1. I'm using the default layout that comes with 1.62b13a. I have movie previews for mame and n64 but neither work. I can play the movies in windows media player. I dont hear any sounds in mamewah like if the movie was playing behind other artwork or something. I wish mamewah wrote stuff to the log file about movie previews. Anyone have any suggestions of other things to try? :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :cry: |

So I figured out that movie previews won't show if you only have an Artwork Image #1 display object in a theme. In my exhaustive search to get movie previews working again I tried downloading someone else's theme and previews worked with that! So then I started messing around with the default theme to see what was different. I put an Artwork Image #2 box in the theme, saved it out and what do you know, movie previews would now play in the artwork #1 box. Take the #2 box back out of the theme, no more movie previews. I hope that this problem is reproducible for other people and it's not just me who is crazy. I hope it gets fixed so others won't have to suffer through what I've been through. My brain hurts. :dizzy: :dizzy: :dizzy: |

I had a similar problem in that I had an artwork #1 and #3, but no #2. I added the #2 and bing! Movies. I wonder if there's something about the #2 specifically. |
