2 Preview Screens?
« on: November 30, 2004, 11:01:00 AM »

I've also been trying this same thing, with no luck so far.  I'd be interested to hear if this is possible.

2 Preview Screens?
« Reply #1 on: November 30, 2004, 11:27:00 AM »

This is how it works, UnleashX can only run 2 vidz at the same time.
1) the main background video
2) the game preview video

You can have multiple game preview windows, HOWEVER they can only play the same game preview video. You cant have 2 differant game preview vids running at the same time.

Why you ask? Cuz the xbox has limited resources, it only has 64mb of ram.

<Menu Align="Middle" ShowIcon="False" ShowArrows="False">
 <Preview EnableAudio="True" Top="116" Left="293" Width="357" Height="267" />
 <Preview EnableAudio="True" Top="20" Left="20" Width="357" Height="267" />
 <Font>Square-12.xpr</Font>
 </Menu>

BTW, ignore the rest, just dup the preview tag.

EDIT: I figured this out when I was coding UXArchitect, I was able to insert 3 videos and got it to work, but thats as many as a I tried. UXA is capped at 1. Maybe I will make the limit 2.

@snowman27, Yes I coded UXA, and thanks.

@Foolio187, I have done it before. Let me get my XBOX back (I lent it to a relative) and I will check it then. I tweaked the skin.xml soo much, I hope I can remember how I did it. It was over 7 months ago. I think UXA wrote the tag in 2 dfrnt places....I just cant remember exactly how. I will post the snippet if I can recreate it.
