      @edmaul69 shite, there has to be a way...! or @ruckage can you make video fade to black 1 second longer?

      The trouble with that solution is I could end up continually making videos of varying lengths as everyone's setup is slightly different. On my setup ES is already up and running when the video ends (I don't even need to disable the ES splash).

      If there is call for it then I may consider doing 2 or 3 variations of slightly different lengths - e.g 10, 12, and 14 seconds.

      You could also see if there are ways to speed up your boot time - disabling 'wait for network on boot' can help a lot. Also a faster SD Card is another option (I use sandisk ultra).

      wasnt aware, assumed boot time and setup without es logo was the same, they are on all my pies here.. am using fastest possible sandisk hardware, my boot time is fast as hell. i have no idea whats the issue, probably too fast thats why its showing up

          Well, if it was 'too fast' then the system select screen would already be running before the video even ended (boot time can never be too fast : ) ). As I said that is the case on my setup, the only thing I disabled was the 'check for network on boot' as that was causing a delay on mine.

          There are just too many variables though that could affect the boot time - Raspberry pi model, SD card, Retropie version, system setup, etc, etc.

            A little help if possible...
            1.where do I add the marquees?

            2.I have capcom games also in the neogeo folder however Im only getting the neo geo option system selector option on the theme. How do I see the capcom screen?

            3.Also once i select the neo geo system the images on the next page of the theme to choose a game aren't displaying.

              I got stuff figured out:
              first go to /etc/pam.d and edit login, comment out everything that says print, especially the stuff about MOTD

              then add the stuff below to cmdline.txt

              dwc_otg.lpm_enable=0 console=serial0,115200 console=null root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootfstype=ext4 elevator=deadline fsck.repair=yes rootwait quiet loglevel=3 vt.global_cursor_default=0 consoleblank=0 logo.nologo plymouth.enable=0
              then add this to config.txt

              disable_splash=1
              avoid_warnings=1

              also edit /etc/issue to remove "Raspbian GNU/Linux 8 raspberrypi tty1"
              delete the line: Raspbian GNU/Linux 8 \n \l

              this will bring you the closest you can get, there's still:

              raspberrypi login: pi (automatic login)

                    @flyingtomahawk all of the suff after the spashscreen before the emulationstation logo is not affected by those settings. I still see it occasionally with all that stuff set in the cmdline.txt

                      As you can see in my video there is nothing between the video splashscreen and the ES loading screen. At least not in my current setup.
                      I am sure you guys will figure it out though.

                        @flyingtomahawk when you have as much stuff as i have there is inconsistent load times. If you dont have too much stuff you wont generally see it.

                            @flyingtomahawk nope. I love all my roms. :) plus i dont scrape so i dont parse gamelists. So i just wait patiently for it to boot. Plus i boot roms off of hard drive so not sure if that makes a difference in load times.

                              I especially prepared everything for this theme.
                              I have 135 neogeo games, 81 cps games, 24 fba games and maybe max. 50 games for megadrive, snes and nes. The long black screen at the begining of my video is because of the WiFi dhcp thing loading. Deactivating WiFi would load it even faster.

                              I also use the es_system file changer by tmnt which helps me separate the systems and therefore reduce loading times.

                                          Oh you meant the game videos inside the system not the splashscreen video at the beginning. Sorry my bad.

                                            @tmntturtlguy i completely understand, also dont like how this forum works, am more familiar with a different forum setup and posting layout, more cleaner, as this is a bit of a chaotic format, but my post was directly attributed to this theme, am not sure where the theme wants the videos, and also cant get the scraped gamelist.xml to work with it...
