AFAIK MMAL is a Raspberry Pi specific thing so won't work on Win machine. MMAL > https://github.com/techyian/MMALSharp/wiki/What-is-MMAL%3F

Only thing which comes to mind is that videos are not properly encoded (and EmuMovies does have this problem with some system video-packs)

This doesn't make any sense. How can mmal be a specific thing for Rasp, when the XP version of Attract Mode has hardware support by ffmpeg 3.4?

this should not be happening... i mean well first is this on a home computer, is it dedicated to attract mode or what? second you might have other stuff running in the background. i spent over a year building my 4 player cab using win 7 and i have 0 issues. if your machine is dedicated to attract mode ill gladly share the info i have. (arcade,daphne,nes,snes,atari2600. is what im running.) also whats your hardware specs?

Nothing running on my background, I'm a msconfig maniac. Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 (Best Dual Core on the Market), it's running pretty much everything nowadays., 4 gb of 800Mhz ddr2, a Nvidia GPU special edition OC 2GB GDDR5 and two brand new components, a SSD of 120GB, and a 2 Tetra HHD.

I suppose you're using the Windows Xp version of Attract Mode, which has the mmal option (Hardware video decoder). Problem is, I don't have that option. DO I need to download and install ffmpeg to have this option show up in the video decoder setting?

By checking the forums, several people are having the same problem. Some of them solved it without mentioning the process, others simply left the front end.

Need some help. What do you have to do to get the mmal option for the video decoder on the Windows XP version of Attract Mode? Only got dxva2 and software.

Do I need to download anything?

Thanks for the help man.

I tried the windows XP version, without changing the folder name, only adding the video, rom and emulator. Only decoding options I have are dxva2 and software. dxva2 seems to reach 100% quite fast.

Is dxva2 the name of the decoder? I've read something about having another option called mmal, but I don't have it in the XP release.

Can you people help me out?

While using the cosmo's theme, my CPU tends to be at 100% usage. What's wrong? Pc User here.

Even with the default theme, the snap videos are leaving my CPU usage at 100%. To name a few things, I changed Attract Mode's main folder to simply Attract. Also I did some modifications to the theme per si, mainly replaced a system video.

Heard that conflict may appear if names have been changed or something. The front end loops searching and overloads resources.

Solution, reinstal windows 7 ultimate 64 + full drivers pack

Uhmm. I don't understand. What exactly did you do to solve the 100% cpu usage? Just install windows? What's the "full drivers pack"?

How do you activate the hardware support on XP? Do you have to turn on dxva2? I'm not on the Xp operating system, but I think it'll work.

Could you explain the end navigation trigger? How do you activate this?

I'm a computer user, yes. Right now, I'm using the cosmos theme. Thanks in advance.

I'm having serious problems with the cpu usage while displaying videos. Which video decoder should I use? dxva2 or software? Is there any bugged option I should turn off to improve cpu usage?

Just finished with the Sega collection, and I didn't notice the cpu usage. Videos start lagging after several minutes, even freezing the front end. What should I do?
