[Resolved] Systems Videos

[MrGrynch]

I want to use a system video for Visual Pinball X and MAME.  My plan is to create my own, but wanted to ask the community if you know of any good preexisting system videos for PinballX.  I was going to try and make a mosaic of different tables/games in Shotcut or something.  If I can save the trouble in the near-term, that would be great!

Thanks!

There are also some on VPU https://vpuniverse.com/files/category/72-frontend-media-files/, but note that the playfield videos may need rotating for use in PinballX if made by a user of an alternate front end. Don't know if these are the kind of mosaic you had in mind? https://vpuniverse.com/files/file/9329-frontend-playfield-videos-looping/

The VPUniverse files are perfect!!  I just need to rotate them.  Thank you!

I'm sorry, I thought it would be obvious, but where do these videos go so that they are played when the system is selected?  I tried every media folder and looked through the documentation.  I didn't see what I was looking for.

Didn't read the pinballx manual?

Just in the system folder and call it '- system - .extension'

I did, but it wasn't clear. When you say system folder you mean MAME system (for MAME)?  I found an earlier thread asking this same question and I did that, but its not playing. I put it in MAME\table videos named "-system-.mp4"

Got it!  I missed the space after the '-'.  I also did a search in the documentation for "- system -" and didn't find it.  Thank you for your help!
