Hmmm... I was hoping that the snap would remain the only thing showing for x seconds ... then the video would pop in... any way to have that fade start out VERY SLOW for like 3 seconds ... maybe taking the fade from 0% to like 5% in that 3 seconds...then snap it from 5% to 100% fade in like 1 second?

Definitely a step in the right direction however...

:)

EDIT: Thinking on it... as I am not familiar with the fade's functionality,  I have to ask... is it possible to show the snap 3 seconds... then fade to black for a half second...wait a quarter second then "unfade" (it's early here!) to the video over a quarter second?   Or something to that effect (I'm trying to be as (likely unnecessarily) precise as I can...

Let me preface by saying I am merely a hack and not even a good one... when it comes to programming.  Knowing that...

I am looking to be able to display a snap for a specific length of time... lets say 3 seconds... then either replace that snap with the movie file for that game OR simply start playing the movie over the top of the snap (hiding the snap) until either a game is selected or a control movement is made at which time the movie would stop playing and either the snap would be replaced OR (in the case of the movie playing over the snap) the movie would simply stop & disappear there by leaving the snap on screen...

The overall effect would be simply the snap showing for 3 seconds ... then the movie start playing.

Yes,  I can get the snap to appear.  Yes,  I can get the movie file to appear.   No,  I can't figure out how to get the snap ONLY to appear for a set time frame then have the movie to appear.

I am trying to mimic behavior that I used in an old MAMEWAH theme I made years ago and apply it to a modified version of the SDARCADE VERTICAL theme.

Any/all help is much appreciated!

EDIT: Oh,  by the way... the more I think about it,  the more I am convinced that the better way to do this (if it's possible) would be to overlay the video after running a timer on it... then removing it when a movement/button is sensed.  The way the layout works is that multiple snaps are on screen... and I can already replace all 3 snaps on screen (albeit immediately) with movies... but that's not what I need... I need just the MIDDLE "selected" snap to switch to the movie 3 seconds in...
