      Set custom video loop for Emulationstation screensaver

I am looking to have a single video file loop as the screensaver in Emulationstation.

      I have looked around online and found some references to this issue, but most were from a time when Emulationstation video support in general was just being rolled out.

      I already have everything scraped, so my current two options are to have static images rotate thought the images folder, or to just have the video previews for the ROMs play.

      If there is a simple solution to this I am all ears!

      If no simple solution, is there a way to specify which systems the previews play from? I could direct it to a hidden game list that just has one entry with the custom video referenced.

      Thanks in advance for anyone that can help!
