burno_sardine Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Hi all, Using PinballX Database Manager 24.03.04.0, there is an hourglass icon on the main screen titled as "Loading Media". It seems to only be looking for .gif files in PinballX\Media\Loading Images, and the icon changes green if one is found. I was assuming it might be looking for both images and videos. I'm using the "\Media\Loading Videos" directory and was wondering if there was a setting to have the hourglass Loading Media icon be green if a matching video is found in \media\loading videos. It would be helpful because, not only do I like "all green", a media audit reports I have no "Loading Media". Out of curiosity, I traced the launch of DB Manager with procmon and the \Loading Videos directory is not read at all. I've attached: DBManagerLog.txt, Screenshot.png, pinballx\config\pinballx.ini, pinballx\log\log.txt and pinballx\plugins\PBXLoadingImage_log.txt Thanks for any assistance! PS: When I was testing 'Loading Media" with a .gif placed in the \loading images directory, Right clicking on the Loading Media hourglass icon > Delete did not delete the .gif.

scutters Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 I think it might be because of an error reading the wrong default value for the loading media mode in PinballX. It looks like until you change the loading media mode in settings.exe there is no value saved in the pinballx.ini, and no value should be to use 'loading folders' not 'loading images'. It should be simple to test, can you open settings.exe and under General Settings, Table Loading Media Mode select to 'use playfield images' and then exit. Then go back in and change the setting to 'use loading folders', exit again to update pinballx.ini and then open database manager to see if the icon is then coloured correctly.

burno_sardine Posted March 4 Author Share Posted March 4 Resolved. That was it! Database Manager is now aware of my Loading Videos. I also see I now have a "UseTableLoadingMedia" setting in the pinballx.ini. I guess I've never had a need to change that particular setting. Much appreciated! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
