Just installed 4.95 and seem to be having a problem running video in attract mode. I have GameEx set to a 1/1 ratio for games and video (using commercials from the MAMEWAH pack). However, the videos are not playing, only games. This was not a problem in previous versions.

Odd thing is, I can play the videos fine when I choose to play them from the GameEx menu.

Oh, one more thing, when I set a video to play at startup -- I get a blank screen, but am able to hear the video playing.

All of this is quite wierd. Please help!

Only thing I can think of is reinstalling the latest version of DirectX. There were changes to the video playing code in latest versions of GameEx but I cant think why it would have the affect you mentioned.

I just uploaded 4.96. It might fix it for you. Give it a go.

Well, I downloaded 4.96 and reinstalled Direct X 9.0c and continue to have the same problems I originally mentioned. Not sure what the problem is....

Could you try replacing the file in the gameex directory with the ones in the attached zip.

bin.zip
