Title: SOLVED: Videos only play in windowed mode
Post by: Slasher on Tue 05/03/2019 06:35:29

Hi,

AGS Editor .NET (Build 3.4.1.15)

1280 x 720

3d9

PlayVideo("NEWSINTRONEW.mp4", eVideoSkipEscKey,1);

I can only seem to get any videos to run in windowed mode.

From compiled run in widow mode ticked... plays ok

If I untick box video does not play.

I have tried m4 and ogv only plays music.

my windows media player does play ogv files ok.

Here it is in mp4 (YouTube)

SOLVED Put video into After fade in and set next room transition to Instant. (Thanks for reminder Cassiebsg)

You realize that just editing your post and write "SOLVED" in it doesn't help anyone that might have the same problem.
At least write what the problem was and how you solved. ;)

I think in the end the problem was that Slasher played the video in room_Load, before fade-in, and AGS apparently draws black fade effect on top of the video.

I am not sure what does it have to do with windowed/fullscreen differences though.

Well, I think it was morganw who've guessed about fade-out.
