      @lilbud I'll take a look but I still don't understand why are you using audio where must be a video.

          @lilbud I'll help you with this, I have white screnn in all systems.

          Also you need to set up the marquees, even if you doesn't want to use marquees in your theme, because it can show on top or other things if somebody have marquees.

          If you want marquees place it somewhere, if you don't want marquees, move out of the screen.

                    @lilbud I don't know how to do that, but if you want i can tell you what was the changes.

                    Here you have: http://www.mediafire.com/file/f9ts8gayc8n8r7c/es-theme-flat-with-video.zip

                    You need to place marquees better, i let that for you, but now are not on top of video, now are on upper right corner, anyway marquees are on top of nes logo, no space for marquees there.

                        @lilbud This is what I did to fix the theme.

                        • For every system, in theme.xml I replace:
                        <view name="basic, detailed">
                        

                        with:

                        <view name="basic, detailed, video">
                        
                        • On flat.xml replace:
                        <view name="basic, detailed, grid">
                        

                        with:

                        <view name="basic, detailed, grid, video">
                        
                        • and:
                        <view name="detailed">
                        

                        with:

                        <view name="detailed, video">
                        
                        • But video view doesn't need md_image so I deleted this from <view name="detailed, video">:
                        <image name="md_image">
                        			<pos>0.254 0.202</pos>
                        			<maxSize>0.185 0.327</maxSize>
                        			<origin>0 0</origin>
                        		</image>
                        
                        • And placed appart for detailed view only:
                        <view name="detailed">
                        		
                        		<image name="md_image">
                        			<pos>0.254 0.202</pos>
                        			<maxSize>0.185 0.327</maxSize>
                        			<origin>0 0</origin>
                        		</image>
                        	</view>
                        
                        • And changed the values of marquees because before was the same than video and that is because displaying on top of video.
                        <image name="md_marquee">
                        			<origin>0 0</origin>
                        			<pos>0.745 0.01</pos>
                        			<maxSize>0.25 0.14</maxSize>
                        		</image>
                        

                        You need to edit this and place it better.

                        I hope this helps on github.

                        Regards.

                                    @lilbud I'm sure you didn't edit your gamelist.xml to add videos and marquees tags are not??

                                      I assume that this whole video and grid stuff is not inside any official release yet right?

                                          Got it working, it turns out there still was a image tag in the gamelist.

                                            @lilbud Strabge because it's working for me and for greekmanx, something it's wrong, check if the paths for the videos are correct in gamelist.xml.

                                            The easy way is to edit gamelist.xml and the path for video:

                                            ./videos/my_video.mp4

                                            then create the folder videos inside your roms folder, with yor roms files, and place the video inside.
