Video Files

Video files are supported directly inside your custom game launchers.

Even though we support AVI, MP4 and many other formats, we highly suggest you convert your video to WMV (Windows Media Video) format. This is the easiest and most compatible format across all computers. Your users probably will not have the codecs installed for an MP4 file and some AVI codecs, whereas WMV is already installed with every copy of Windows by default.

Loop Video

Toggle this to ON to Loop the Video. If it is set to OFF, it will play once then stop.

Cloud Video

Toggle this ON or OFF. If ON, you will need to specify the full, absolute URL to the wmv file on your webserver. The permissions must be set to public.

Local Video

If the Cloud Video is toggled to OFF, you will need to select the video file from your launcher library.

Video Preview

Select the Refresh Video button to get a preview of what your video will look like. There is also an error string to report any errors. If there are errors with your cloud video after the refresh, you must check the URL is correct (copy and paste it into your web browser).

Video Actions (Global Event)

You can specify action(s) to happen when the video ends.
