Adding video scraps in Emulation Station

[edm203]

Hi everyone,

I noticed that emu staiton now supports video scraps with the carbon theme. Any documentation to get that working? I can't seem to find any on official docs and forums. Thanks!

Basicly you have to edit the gamelist.xml for each rom
Here is a example for a game entry in a gamelist.xml (using a video preview):

<game>
	<path>./1944.zip</path>
	<name>1944 - the loop master (000620 USA)</name>
	<desc>1944 - the loop master (000620 USA)</desc>
	<video>/home/pi/Games/config/videos/1944.xmv</video>
	<marquee>/home/pi/Games/config/marquees/1944.png</marquee>
	<rating>0.5</rating>
	<releasedate>20000101T000000</releasedate>
	<developer>Capcom / 8ing / Raizing</developer>
	<publisher>2000 Capcom / 8ing / Raizing</publisher>
	<genre>Shooter / Flying Vertical</genre>
	<players></players>
</game>

Basicly you have to edit/add the video tag! Insert the path to your video file into

<video>path/here</video>
