@Clyde Thanks Clyde I'll have a look. Cheers for the heads up.

Thanks @mitu @Efriim Apologies not to answer before. Turned off OMX and everything same with arcade game videos (some of them). Tried to convert with handbrake w/o any scrift (very easy to do...and tried some different configurations) but no luck. The only option was to download .mp4 from YouTube...and works and I dont know why. Its rare because the video was the same from the beginning I was made couple months ago and did work perfect, so its not a Skraper/XML problem...I think EmulationStaion is on the last build 2.8.3RP Anyway, many very thanks.

@kavin_steele Thanks for sharing your solution for others who might have the same problem.

@mitu Tested, confirmed working with Universal XML scraper

@mitu Now that sounds familiar. Will give it a try later today. Thanks alot.

@mitu That worked. Thank you!

Another nice feature would be to cycle different pictures, like screenshot / flyer / cabinet.

@slimbrick That's most likely some video codec that's not understood by omxplayer. It's also a common problem, there are a few topics on how to re-encode those videos to be compatible with omxplayer.

@brimby said in Video snaps became "blue-tinted" all of a sudden: This is probably going to sound insane because I can't find anyone else having this issue There have been at least 3 posts about this in the last few days. It's a known issue from the latest raspbian update Downgrade vlc or switch to omxplayer

@the_engineeer please post your sistem information as requested in the "read-me-first" topic referenced at the top of the forum.

i updated and my snaps turned blue... omxplayer is not an option for me because it forces the video to be infront of the background...

@pjft Thanks for all your help, I really appreciate it.

@mitu said in Background Music Compatible with Video Preview Audio?: @westleigh77 It depends on the script you're using. There's a version that stops/fades the music when it detects certain programs being run - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/347/background-music-continued-from-help-support/. Depending on the video player you're using, you can configure it to stop the music if it detects the video being played, but I don't think it can play the music just on the ES main screen since it cannot detect that. mitu always being super helpful :) Here is an updated list of emulators/background music apps (although for this specific case i think you only need to add "omplayer.bin"): emulatornames = ["retroarch","ags","uae4all2","uae4arm","capricerpi","linapple","hatari","stella","atari800","xroar","vice","daphne","reicast","pifba","osmose","gpsp","jzintv","basiliskll","mame","advmame","dgen","openmsx","mupen64plus","gngeo","dosbox","ppsspp","simcoupe","scummvm","snes9x","pisnes","frotz","fbzx","fuse","gemrb","cgenesis","zdoom","eduke32","lincity","love","kodi","alephone","micropolis","openbor","openttd","opentyrian","cannonball","tyrquake","ioquake3","residualvm","xrick","sdlpop","uqm","stratagus","wolf4sdl","solarus","drastic","coolcv","PPSSPPSDL","moonlight","Xorg","smw","omxplayer.bin"]
