Gameplay previews "cut-off" while playing in Mamewah??? **SOLVED**
<< < (3/4) > >>
jacenwon:
that's the only ones i used for the preview, considering there's no need for a hi-res preview.

i did some more troubleshooting last night, and found out that the video's NOT cutoff when i run a 368x240 resolution. it's tough as hell to navigate on the desktop at the res, but it plays the video fine within mamewah now :)

thanks for the suggestions folks  8)
Minwah:
Sorry I can't be much help, but I can say the following is generally true: The video's must play in Media Player correctly to play back in Mamewah.  Mamewah doesn't 'use' Media Player but it uses DirectX in basically the same way Media Player does it.

Seems to me there is something a bit funny with the video format.  Personally I use Circo's EmuMovies set and from memory have worked great at whatever resolutions I have tried.

Note: you don't need to run your desktop at 368x240 to run Mamewah at that res.  I have a desktop of 640x480 and run Mamewah at 368x240 on my cabinet.

thanks for the reply, minwah.

yeah, it's odd that i can't run the movies from circo at 640x480.... that resolution allows me to design a bitchin' layout :( now, at 368x240, the layouts can't be too graphically advanced :(

have a good one  :)

Yeah that's odd...I have just (after 3 years) got round to moving my cabinet to where I live, so I should be playing around with software a bit more soon.  I will keep an eye on the movies to see if anything similar happens...
jacenwon:
yeah, i'd say it's something that should be looked at... just incase it's fixable, perhaps?

i reformated last night, and only installed the xvid codecs (as emumovies suggests). it seems all the movies run fine up until i install mamewah's "system files" - once i run setup.bat, the video is cutoff from there on out.

how can i uninstall the system files? i wanna mess with somethin' :)


thanks for the assistance, minwah  :cheers:
