Natdiamond Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Is there a way to have more than 1 video play from the main menu wheel? For instance, when I select MAME it plays a video of some older 80's arcade action. But I have more than 1 video I'd like to show. Right now, If you roll over it, it's always the same video. Can there be a random mix of several videos in the file that it will pick when I roll over MAME, or Atari, or other emu's off the main wheel?

gigapig Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Pretty sure you can't because everything in Hyperspin has to be named correctly, otherwise nothing would show up. I bet however, someone can make a small program or batch file, to rename one of the other video files, to the system name, at random or every day. Crazy.

Natdiamond Posted January 31, 2014 Author Share Posted January 31, 2014 I had seen something in one of your video's Gigapig, involving fade and naming several images like atari (1), atari (2), etc. So I tried it on a whim with those videos, but it didn't work. I''m pretty sure it was one of your videos. But I thought there may be something similar. Oh well. Thanks for the quick reply! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somail Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 You could make a batch file that renames files upon exit of Hyperspin. So have three files: (intro1, intro2, intro3) and then upon hyperspin closing the batchfile will rename intro -> introtemp, intro3 -> intro, intro2 ->intro3, introtemp to intro2. The batch file is executed by filing in the run on exit box in HyperHQ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You did indeed Sir, and that is exactly the thing you would want, it's a brilliant system, but that is related to RocketLauncher and not Hyperspin.

ninja2bceen Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Oh this is a blast from the past. I believe this is pertaining to the randomizer where you could get multiple videos and you randomize them. It works great to have a random intro video. I’ve not done this with system intros videos but the same idea is there Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richie_jones Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Yeah thanks. I thought it may be.. it's a Great programme works really well I have over 40 vids.I was hopeing somebody had found a way to have different videos for game video snaps..for example on my pc game wheel I'd like various fortnite videos. But doubt this is possible.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninja2bceen Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 In theory I think the program could be used to create it I think but you would probably need ahk.as well. I understand the struggle Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
