I feel like a complete moron for asking this since the answer is probably somewhere so easy to find that I'm an idiot for missing it, but I'd like to set up multiple BigBox startup videos so it will choose one randomly every time it loads(because I can't decide which of the five startup videos I've chosen I like most). I've seen mention of this being possible, but not how to do it. I can get any one startup video working at a time, but that's it. I've tried putting them all with the same filename but with a number added to the end, but that just results in none of them being loaded.

Thanks in advance for helping out this poor little idiot who's Google-Fu is too weak for his own good.

I know that much - I put them in the folder, but none of them will play unless they're named "startup." Anything else won't play when I load.

 

EDIT: Okay, I finally found the information I was looking for -

I KNEW it had to be SOMEWHERE on these forums.... :P

Glad you got it working, but just an FYI, that is exactly what Neil was telling you do to.

I see that now that you point it out - I had misread it as saying it just goes in the Videos folder, as I'd been doing.

Like I said in my first post, I am an idiot.
