CriticalCid Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Hey guys, I’m back from my break and I have a little surprise for you that I’ve been working on since quite a while. I’ve recorded almost 2000(!) new HyperSpin video themes for your MAME games! They are now available from EmuMovies directly through LaunchBox or from the EmuMovies FTP. You’ll need a EmuMovies premium membership in order to get them! All credits go to the original theme creators over at the HyperSpin forums. You guys do an amazing job! What’s new: 1665 new video themes for previously uncovered games (lots of Mahjong and Casino stuff, but also many ‘real’ games) 221 updated videos for already existing games with higher-quality themes* 55 new Mature themes** EmuMovies now features 3764 videos themes for different MAME games in total + 300 alternative theme versions! * All videos that were replaced with new ones were moved to the following folder on the EmuMovies FTP: /Official/Video Themes (HD)/MAME - Alternatives (Video Themes - Unified)(4x3)(HD)(CriticalCid 1.4) You can still grab them there if you prefer them for whatever reason. ** Mature Themes are only available on the EmuMovies FTP. They can’t be downloaded directly through LaunchBox! You can find them under: /Official/Video Themes (HD)/MAME - Mature (Video Themes - Unified)(4x3)(HD)(CriticalCid 1.4) Important Note: If you have already downloaded any MAME video themes and you want to get all the new updated ones I highly suggest that you delete all the MAME video themes that you currently have and re-download the whole set again. Otherwise you will only get the ones for the games that don’t already have a video theme and you won’t get any of the updated themes as LB never overwrites/replaces any of your videos. Unfortunately there’s no better way around that yet. Sorry about your bandwidth. You can find the video which you currently have in your setup in: ”..\ LaunchBox\Videos\PLATFORMNAME\Theme” How to download the new video themes: Method A: In LaunchBox Make sure that you’ve entered your EmuMovies account information in the options. In LaunchBox go to the platform in which you have imported all your MAME games. Select all games with CTRL + A. Click on Tools -> Download Metadata and Media -> Next -> Next –> “Select None” and click on Next –> First click on “Select None” than scroll down the list and check “Video - Theme” -> Next -> “Yes, but do not replace any existing media or fields” -> Next -> Wait until all video themes were downloaded. Done. If you also want the Mature videos for your adult games check download method b). Method B: From the EmuMovies FTP Go to the EmuMovies FTP (more information about that can be found on the EmuMovies website). Navigate to “/Official/Video Themes (HD)/” choose one of the 3 MAME sets that you want and open its folder. Select all vidoes with CTRL + A and download them on your PC to: ”..\ LaunchBox\Videos\PLATFORMNAME\Theme” Of course PLATFORMNAME stands for the platform in which you have imported all your MAME games. 9 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charco Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Thanks for all you hard work on this @CriticalCid, I deleted all my theme videos and re-scraped from LaunchBox and it added about 1,000 videos. Looks great 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnodon Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Any idea if these will be added to the EMUMovies Sync app? That would make like MUCH simpler for us that download outside of the frontend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll tag @circo and let him answer that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuskeee Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 Im using this in hyper spin. is there a place to download the full screen blank theme for each game that has a video so I don't have to make one for each of them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CriticalCid Posted May 3, 2020 Author Share Posted May 3, 2020 I only recorded the videos and didn’t create any additional stuff for usage in other FrontEnds besides Big Box. So unfortunately I can’t help you with that. You should better ask this in the HyperSpin forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
