40yearoldPinhead Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 I love this front end, thank you for a great product. i was wondering if it is possible to have the default setting of “Use DirectB2S in Front End” set to TRUE but override this on specific tables? For example, I have backglass videos recorded for a table, but if the DirectB2S file exists, it displays this instead. It’d like it to display this only if there is no video present, but when I have a video, display that instead. if I set this option to FALSE, the videos work fine. Thanks for any help or suggestions anyone can give. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike_da_Spike Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Maybe a stupid question. For vpx you always have a b2s file or not ? I don't know a table on my cab without a directb2s file 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scutters Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Best bet is to just have a backglass video for every table in the media folders! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know a table on my cab without a directb2s file Yeah but I use VP9 for some tables, and those have executables instead of the B2S. And the only thing I don’t like about the B2S files is it just lights up a little, so while I make videos I’d like to have something there. So for the most part, all tables will have something, but as I record tables, I can slowly replace them with videos. I am recording synchronized videos so the table, sounds, and backglass are in sync when the demo runs, so it takes some time to make a full set.

That’s the eventual goal, I was hoping to have a happy middle ground of the B2S file until I record the full video set Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinballx looks for videos first then images. Depends if you'd be happy with static images i guess, should be plenty on the FTP (as well as stock backglass videos of course, but they might be harder to identify as not your recordings later) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
