Atari 2600 Videos

[zhnujm]

Hello,

im new to Emumovies and i just downloaded Atari 2600 Video Snaps via Launchbox  for my rom files but all videos start witch a red screen reading Atatri 2600 and EmuMovies wich makes it really useless and ugly in the preview of the files in Launchbox.

Is it the same for every platform or a workaround to not show the first frame of the video ?

Oh thats not the first frame, thats metadata, assume your seeing that in some video player that displays metadata?  I have never heard of launchbox displaying a thumbnail.  Do you have a screenshot of it showing all this in the front end?

It's not used in many sets (experiment) but the only place you should ever see that is in file manager.

Yes, you are right its not the first frames or something, its seems its not in the video stream.

But it is also shown in windows eplorer as thumbnail for the video ?

Example:

Aware of that, it’s not something we use anymore but a few years back that was the thumbnail. That will actually go away next time 2600 gets a video update but it won’t affect anything negatively

Ok, i cleaned all tags from the mp4 files with Tagscanner and now Launchbox shows a real preview of the videos files.

Thanks.

Oh, I see, launchbox actually showing this is new.  Previously only bigbox supported videos. will clear that up this week, thanks for the heads up.
