Title: Robospin Feature Request
Post by: strontium on February 14, 2017, 10:43:06 PM

@Omegaman

Hi, first things first thanks for the great theme.

I'm using what I think is your latest version V4. There is one thing that I think would enhance this theme and that would be the ability to mute the sounds of videos being played on the screen of the cabinet.

The reason I say this is that I prefer to have video to show the gameplay of the game but the sounds can be a little much if you have the cabinet or display on and your flicking through etc..

I hope you don't mind this suggestion,

Thanks again,

Strontium

if you start to read the layout.txt located in the AM root folder
you will be amazed on what you will find. it has inspired me.
line #1396

* `video_flags` - [image & artwork only] Get/set video flags for this
     object.  These flags allow you to override Attract-Mode's default video
     playback behaviour.  Can be set to any combination of none or more of the
     following (i.e. `Vid.NoAudio | Vid.NoLoop`):
      - `Vid.Default`
      - `Vid.ImagesOnly` (disable video playback, display images instead)
      - `Vid.NoAudio` (silence the audio track)
      - `Vid.NoAutoStart` (don't automatically start video playback)
      - `Vid.NoLoop` (don't loop video playback)

Code: [Select]

local cab2 = fe.add_image ("images/forgottn.mp4", flx*0.340, fly*0.348, flw*0.180, flh*0.169);
cab2.video_flags = Vid.NoAudio
hope this help you.

Change the volume of the snaps in the sound options in the configuration menu.
