      I think that depends on the theme used, there's a parameter of the video element which dictates the delay. What theme are you using ?

        @mitu oh I see! I already guessed kind of this because in some themes the parameter seems to be different compared to others. Now I'm at work so I will check it later and will tell you which theme I'm using at the moment. Anyway thank you for your reply!

          @mitu so it’s me again. The name of the theme I’m using is „EUDORA-CONCISE“. Now I try to find the location of the installed themes. Maybe there is a config file

          EDIT: I’ve found the location of the themes but don’t know where I can find the parameter for the preview video

            It's in common/templates/concise.xml , here. You can make a copy of the theme from /etc/emulationstation/themes to $HOME/.emulationstation/themes and modify the delay parameters to your liking, in the file I mentioned.
