Need second monitor video keeping playing while playing a game

[Oroborus77]

Hi !

Is there a way to keep a video playing on the second monitor while playing a game on the first one monitor ?

This is the layouts settings for the scnd monitor i have :

Code: [Select]

<reloadableVideo type="backglass" mode="Layout" alpha="1" monitor="1" y="center" x="center" yOrigin="center" xOrigin="center" height="1920" width="1080" angle="0" layer="16">
  </video>
 
<reloadableImage type="logo" monitor="1" x="center" y="center" yOrigin="center" xOrigin="center" alpha="0" width="1920" maxHeight="1080" layer="15">
  <onGameEnter>
<set duration="0.25">
                <animate type="alpha" to="1" algorithm="easeinquadratic"/>
                <animate type="width" to="786" algorithm="easeinquadratic"/>
                <animate type="maxHeight" to="300" algorithm="easeinquadratic"/>
</set>
<set duration="0.25">
                <animate type="alpha" to="1" algorithm="easeinquadratic"/>
                <animate type="width" to="917" algorithm="easeinquadratic"/>
                <animate type="maxHeight" to="400" algorithm="easeinquadratic"/>
</set>
<set duration="0.25">
                <animate type="alpha" to="0.5" algorithm="easeinquadratic"/>
                <animate type="width" to="1048" algorithm="easeinquadratic"/>
                <animate type="maxHeight" to="500" algorithm="easeinquadratic"/>
</set>
<set duration="0.25">
                <animate type="alpha" to="0" algorithm="easeinquadratic"/>
                <animate type="width" to="1178" algorithm="easeinquadratic"/>
                <animate type="maxHeight" to="600" algorithm="easeinquadratic"/>
</set>
  </onGameEnter>
<onGameExit>
      <set duration="0.001">
                <animate type="alpha" to="0" algorithm="easeinquadratic"/>
                <animate type="width" to="655" algorithm="easeinquadratic"/>
                <animate type="maxHeight" to="249" algorithm="easeinquadratic"/>
      </set>
    </onGameExit >
</image>

Maybe with the "onGameEnter" action type i could be able to have this reloadable video still playing after launch a game ?

Sorry for the bad english, i hope its understandable...

Thanks in advance.

I'm sorry, but no. As soon as you launch a game, RetroFE is fully on hold until the game returns control back over to RetroFE. If you want to play a video on the second monitor, you'll have to do it from outside RetroFE.
