How to play a full screen video theme?

[mankin]

Hello,

I have a cinematic video theme and have named the video the name of the game and placed it in the "video" folder and I have downloaded the "renameme.zip" file and also renamed it to the name of the game and placed it in the "theme" folder, but when I view it in Hyperspin I can only hear the video and cannot see it.

What am I doing wrong?

Try the zip with another video to make sure there is not an issue with the video you are trying to play.

Also, here is another zip file just in case that's the issue.

I would also run your video through a video converter like Handbrake, as Hyperspin videos can be different to some other videos created for Launchbox for instance.

 

rename me to game.zip

Brilliant! Thanks @Creezz67

It was the video that was the problem. It was a Launchbox video and I converted it and now it works flawlessly. Thanks for the assist and the Dangerous Seed MAME theme.

Cheers
