Hi Guys, so sorry to bother you again with this.

In the Theme that I'm making (and that I can't wait to finish and share)

I have personalized everything, trought Rocketlauncher I was able to set up Daphne and Singe with bezels that will reflect the cabinate artwork and also with scummvm and steam, plus some 80's movies.

all of it with marquees on second monitor via Marquue Masher.

When I enabled the option in theme.ini (AdvancedGFX=True)  like Tom said, I was finally able to get different videos background for the start page and for the mame page (witch I called "arcade games" in my custom menu).

Then I rendered some more videos for the other entries in my list,like "Laser Games" witch is just Rocketlauncher launching bat files and it works great, plus it's seen by gameex like an emulator (so I can run Marquee masher that treats it as a "system")

But when I try via Theme Editor to set a video for every custom menu Item, they show up the right way in Theme editor's video option screen, making copies of the videos in  the media folder with names like "Theme_Background_Laser Games" but then gameex will  always load emubak.mp4.

If I remove that, it goes to the bak screen from the default theme

I just tried a  clean install after the update but still no luck.

I tried to reinstall windows media player, nothing changes.

Studied every ini but couldn't see any solution.

I looked at my custommenu.in but the names are correct, Could the problem be that  the Items name  have multiple words?like "laser games" or "modern arcades"? I have no idea.

Even starting from scratch from another theme is not an option cause I'm doing something totally different and my menu Items are custom so just changing the files doesn't work.

ANY IDEA will be precious to me right now, I'm really stuck and I'm breaking stuff trying to fix this.

Thank you in advance for your time guys.

I can't really wait to give back to this awesome community and share my work with you.

But first _ gotta get it to work right, heheheh.
