Title: Videos not working. Emumovies 480 MP4 type
Post by: GameTech on December 22, 2011, 01:37:49 pm
Just setup a new cabinet... everything is great... but I can't get MA to play any little videos.... it's pointed to the right folder....but nothing plays....  All videos were downloaded from EmuMovies in the new MP4 format.... anything special with this?  I know my old cabinet works great, with the original AVI videos from Emu.

Thanks

*FIXED*

Mp4 doesnt work with Maximus... so AVI and FLV only....

That was resolution to my problem...

Now, all is good,but I did notice that once you arrow down to a game, say Donkey Kong... it shows the Marquee, Nivo Snap, then plays the video fine.. but after the video runs through to end, it stops... I thought the video's were set to loop.. until you selected the game or arrowed down to another..???

thanks

The new version of our download service utility supports avi, it does a real time conversion from the mp4s as you download.  There will be a stand alone utility shortly.  ANy of the old AVI sets are well out of date.
