I see what you mean. I put 4x4 and the performance was good (in screens with 100 games or so), I've not tried larger..., the video was changing really smooth between the frames. But as I am messing around, and I don't have a clue , I cannot get what I have in mind working...

Both themes are good though, so I'm just having a look every few days to see if I manage to configure it how I want to (out of luck more than anything else )

It seems that was the option that was there by default:
 

Code: [Select]

//Setup Art
        snap_t = fe.add_artwork("snap", 700, 55, 300, 300);
snap_t.trigger = Transition.EndNavigation;
Which is the one displaying the videos quite large...

There's a new layout, http://forum.attractmode.org/index.php?PHPSESSID=4c828i07srbmpo8j7q54r3be75&topic=1964.0, which allows us to do what we want (choose number of rows and columns per video) and the design is really good, but... moving between games is not smooth at present, hence that it's a compromise

I am trying to see if I can use that design, with the way you move between frames, as that would be ideal.

I'll let you guys know if I manage it...

Ah, I have not tried with lists so large... just with 100 games in one system, but I am not just talking about the video starting with 800ms, which might be fine, but if you move the cursor, stop in a cell for a split of a second and try to move the cursor again, it won't move. I think there's some kind of logic that is blocking the cursor for a little while so that it behaves in a strange way...

The design is awesome though. I don't have a clue about how to do templates yet, but as I don't have large lists, I'll see if I learn how to use the standard transition method at some point. That would be a really good setup for my needs.

Thank you mate!

This is really good indeed mate. But what you mentioned, transitioning between games is kind of slow, it seems the cursor stops and then the video takes a while to load.

I've seen done something similar in the theme of another forum user, AMGPS. You can see an example of that working on the default (where one can choose to display the flyers and transition to the video snaps), the transitioning of the video is really really good and fast, however, that one doesn't offer the possibility to choose X number of columns and rows, so yours seems more practical at the moment.

Could you have a look at that one to see if you can incorporate the transitions work in yours in a future release? Let me know if you make a new release and want me to give it a go, subscribing to the topic now.

Thanks for sharing!!!

I have thought your idea as before. But finally I decided not to add it. The reason is "Enough". Hope you can understand it.

Actually, you can change the nut file by you needs. Hope you can enjoy the theme 

Quick question, in that nut file. Could you please let me know what is the variable (or the section) that controls the height of the video?

If I put 4x4, flyers appear fine, but videos are appearing twice as big and they go off the screen...

Many thanks!

Thank you. Actually, you may change these settings in option. 

I don't seem to have that option...

If I go to the layouts, I can choose 2 options, AMGPS or AMGPS_Menu.

The possibility to change the grid rows and columns appears in the AMGPS_Menu layout, but if I do that... the layout will just display the wheel images when I exit, ie, no videos and not flyers, just the titles of the games.

If I choose AMGPS layout, then I can see videos and flyers, but in that case, the options for the AMGPS layout do not have the entries for row and columns.

Attaching the options I can see below. Is there a way to choose grid columns and rows for the AMGPS layout (not for the AMGPS_Menu layout)? or am I doing something wrong so that the AMGPS layout can read the settings we choose in AMGPS_Menu layout, if that's possible?

Hey, would it be possible to choose a different grid with flyers+videos, eg, 4x5 or 4x4? or if not, could you please see if this can be incorporated in a future release? It'd be pretty useful if we can configure that part...

Really good layout though!
