Title: Mala & Non-Mame Game Previews
Post by: ldl on May 10, 2007, 05:52:38 pm

What codec is everyone using to play non-mame game previews. I use ffdshow but non-mame previews dont play or freeze up mala. They work perfectly with all other frontends I have tried. Any help would be appreciated.

That codec works great. There is a slight delay in some previews but its 100% better than before. Thanks a million.
