General / Smoothly playing video format in AM
« on: August 23, 2020, 08:03:21 PM »
I always facing a lag or jump frame issue in AM to play video. Some people said it is releated of video resolution. But I try to change it to small resolution, it is also not working. Finially, I got how to fix it. It is not related of resolution, it is related of fps of video.

The best format is 23.98 fps, if the video is higher it like as 29.9 fps. The lag or jump issue will be appeared. If you want to fix it, reencode the video to 23.98 fps, the resolution can keep it.

This is my experience. Thanks.

Scripting / Please help to complete the theme
« on: October 17, 2018, 05:54:05 AM »
Dear All,

http://forum.attractmode.org/index.php?topic=2473.0

About is my new theme that base on Grid theme. Now there is a issue when pressing select the game, then game names in grid will be shown incorrectly.

I think the issue is coming from as below line. It need to replace the  "m_art.index_offset" or rewrite script. Could you teach me how to fix it? Thank you very much.

local s = fe.game_info( Info.Title, m_art.index_offset );

Hope you like it :)

Using smaller size of thumb images can improve the grid movement performance :) 

The theme need to replace screensaver config file, please backup first
