MeaanBeaan Posted July 26, 2020 Posted July 26, 2020 Hi everyone, I've been using BigBox now for a few months and I'm starting to go through the process of recording videos for my games to add into the interface. I was wondering if it would be possible to associate more than one video to any given game so that BigBox would just pick one at random when I scroll over said game. I've seen a few threads talking about doing something similar with both the startup videos and platform videos but I'm not sure it's possible with individual games. I've tried creating a folder within launchbox/videos/*game console* with the file name of the game I want but it appears that BigBox doesn't access the folder if I do that. I also tried just putting the video files into the consoles video folder and naming them after the game file followed by underscore number. That didn't work either. Is this something BigBox is capable of or is it something that might be added at some point down the line? Sorry if this has been answered before. I tried to find an existing topic for it to no avail. Thanks in advance if anyone can help! Quote

The videos simply need to be in the console's respective video folder and named exactly as your game is in LB. The videos would then be named with a -01, -02, and so on after the game name. Just be sure it is "-01" and not "_01" (not underscore). Example: \Launchbox\Videos\Raw Thrills\H2Overdrive-01.mp4 \Launchbox\Vidoes\Raw Thrills\H2Overdrive-02.mp4 1 Quote
