What video engine are you using in Big Box? If you use WMP than I would suggest to change it to VLC.

Also the K-Lite codec pack may no helped you with your looping problem but it will most likely solve the problem on your other machine.

Try to restart your 6.9 machine and see if that helps. If that still doesn’t work, can you open the “Platforms.mp4” video file in “..\LaunchBox\Themes\CriticalZone(v1.0)\Videos\BackgroundVideo\” with Windows Media Player and test if it can play it?

I’m so sorry mate but I really have absolutely no clue how to help you with that as it works perfectly fine on all of my machines and I have no idea how to troubleshoot your problem furthermore. :(

I'm actually getting the same video issue he is. Game videos play just fine, but system videos don't play at all in certain views. The view which looks like the traditional BigBox default plays them just fine (VLC player), but if I switch views, the videos don't play. Not sure why.

Are you sure you have the same issue? andyco47 had problems with the animated background, not the platform videos.

You probably have platform background videos activated. Just deactivate that in your options and it should work as expected for you :)

@Maddoc1007 Like I said, you can’t see it with my background video as the video fades to black at the end of the video. Here’s the unedited version of the video without the fading for you to try

Downloaded the unedited version and placed in my theme no problems or black borders on video KUDOS to you.

I have a little service note for you guys. The new option for the Wheel Minimum Speed in the latest Beta seems to improve the performance furthermore. Especially in the CoverFlow views (which frequently lagged a little). Reduce the value to 200 or 300 Milliseconds and the CoverFlow and Wheel Views should be a lot more responsive!

So you will hopefully get a complete flawless experience with my theme if you combine that with my suggested Fade options (point V in the download description / ReadMe). :)
