GameEx and videos?
« on: August 11, 2009, 04:49:02 am »
What am I doing wrong?

I did the following:

1) downloaded puckman.avi and stuck in in my mame\avisnap directory.
2) set up GameEx to point at the same directory for snaps.

Run games, browse to puckman, no video.  Ideas?

I think GameEx uses a different directory for vids. Double check the config file.

Yeah, for MAME itself, GameEx lets you specify both a video and snap directory. Videos take precedence if they are present.
