      In it's current state, RetroPie's Video Preview settings allow you to set a duration for how often the video previews are swapped.

      Problem: while most videos from most of the scraper sites (screenscraper in particular, since that's the most popular one) have a semi-standard video length of 40-45 seconds, plenty of exceptions DO exist (StarFox 2, for example, is 5 minutes). This often means that lots of games never actually reach the "title screen" part of the preview video.

      It would be preferable to have the "Swap Video Every X Seconds" option include a setting, a sub-setting, or an override button that would cause the video previews to be "swapped" automatically whenever a video preview ends.
