Video Splash Screen

This is so cool! Just changed to a video splash. But the volume of it is so loud! Even though the menu and games SFX are normal levels. Any way to change this, or do I have to edit the video myself and lower the volume like that?

you can edit with sudo nano /etc/init.d/asplashscreen and find the omxplayer line and add --vol n / --amp n parameters. note any changes to this file will get overwritten on updating.

man omxplayer from terminal for help on options

Also animated a little video splash screen with the lovely PS1 boot sound :D

Nice. I'm digging the VHS vibe.

I altered the sound in Handbrake instead, but thanks anyways.

What is the music of the first video?

@Thiago1101 cool. Can you rename the title so people know what it is and can find it if they do a search for it?

[Hannssoni]

I made a very straightforward splash screen. I was having trouble finding something that fit the feel of the console and looked like an actual load screen.

Here is a splash screen I made to combine with the "Red Carbon" default theme:

@7heSandman very nice!

@herb_fargus

Wow, to get a "very nice!" out of herb means you did AMAZING! :D

[columboscoat]

@7heSandman Really cool stuff. Any chance you could stick some sound on it? 8 bit loading noises or gears or swoooshing? Some people love stuff like that. I'm not a fan myself but I know plenty of people who are.

@columboscoat Sure, I'll see about uploading a version with audio as well as some with altered colors and appearance. Thanks for the feedback

Good morning,

Does anyone know if you could have multiple video Splashsreens and each time you start Retropie will play a different one?

[herb_fargus]

@Deders14 that's what the randomiser is for
