extracampine Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 When I load up a theme to edit it in Hypertheme, it won't show the associated video anywhere, even when I "play" the theme. I have set the default video directory in the settings. Am I missing anything here? Edit: even worse, I edited a theme in HyperTheme to move an image, and saved it - and when I run the theme in HyperSpin the video isn't on the theme anymore!!

The video must be in FLV format to be able to play in Hypertheme (you can use any video to edit your theme) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
extracampine Posted January 1, 2018 Author Share Posted January 1, 2018 But all my videos are in MP4. If I want to edit a theme, do I need to convert the video for that theme to FLV? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you're done with your theme you can rename it back to *.mp4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
husko Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 You don't necessarily have to use the video of the theme you are going to edit. A simple way is to make a video template to use for HT. The same video (.flv) can do the job for all your themes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
extracampine Posted January 1, 2018 Author Share Posted January 1, 2018 Thanks a lot, will try that. But wouldn't it be easier for Hypertheme to be able to use the same MP4 videos that Hyperspin actually uses!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
32assassin Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Hypertheme hasn't been updated since before Hyperspin go the MP4 upgrade and Hyperspin is still using some FLV videos transitions and your default Front End "Missing video" file I suggest you make a copy of this video C:\HyperSpin\Media\Frontend\Video\No Video.FLV and move the copy to your Hypertheme WIP folder C:\HyperSpin\HyperTheme\MyThemes\ when you are editing(or making a new theme) a theme, simply add the No Video.FLV from your Mythemes folder to your theme project as a video place holder.

extracampine Posted January 3, 2018 Author Share Posted January 3, 2018 Thanks for this. Wonder why Hypertheme hasn't been updated in so long, especially considering these issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
