Title: Video adverts
Post by: gfly3 on June 21, 2012, 03:04:30 PM
Could someone please explain what needs to be done to get a video advert to work properly ? I put an avi in the advert folder and enabled it in random play settings and it comes up on the now playing screen when it's randomly picked but no video shows ... I only have a single monitor... I seem to be missing something.. Sorry if this is not enough info..

It shows on the now playing screen, you really need a dual screen really otherwise you have to have it showing the now playing screen.

No, is the video in a little box in the top right of the now playing screen?

It can be any of these formats as long as you have the right codec for it

mpg, mpeg, wmv, wma, wav, mkv, flv, mp4

all mine are MP4's cos MP3 gain levels the volume of all me videos
