[Mike Manley]

ok i did everything replaced those two files you sent and into the correct spots and i still dont get a video and when i try to enable splashscreen i get this and it skips

[Mike Manley]

lol same thing on the 2.6 image loading video error again like the same way

[Mike Manley]

ok downloading right now

[Mike Manley]

what verison u used that code for? because i have 2.4 on mine right now but i do have the image for 2.3 that i can try out depending what verison u have

[Mike Manley]

went step by step and still nothing ugh i dont know how many times i reformated my sd card now lol and started fresh

[Mike Manley]

lol about to give up god its so crazy

[Mike Manley]

and when i choose to enable/disable splashscreen it doesnt do anything expect go back to the first highlighted one that says configure audio setting 301

[Mike Manley]

yea video didnt come up it said
/home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/supplementary/splashscreens/video/mushberryintro.mp4 loading failed

[Mike Manley]

yea i figured it out how to rename in putty right now im installing omxplayer and then im done and just have to do retropie setup
then enable splashcreen in the setup script and then choose a the splashcreen you added “video”: and then see if it works
cross fingers

[Mike Manley]

hey how do u rename /etc/init.d/asplashscreen
-Rename to /etc/init.d/jsplashscreen
because i keep getting permission denied

[Mike Manley]

That last code to enable splash screen u gave me boot up to es but it said unable to load video if u can get that one to work that be awesome because I could change videos or photos without coding again

[Mike Manley]

I’m using b+ model with rp 2.4 with hdmi and ethernet cable instead of wireless

[Mike Manley]

yea that one didnt work either lol

[Mike Manley]

video i put my little 2 cents in that i wanted to play for my intro

[Mike Manley]

So this is what i have done because its still not working.
SSH
1) expanded my sd card
sudo apt-get install omxplayer (to install omxplayer)

2)made a file called video under here
/home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/supplementary/splashscreens/video
and I added mushberryintro.mp4 into it (i kept the same file name for the movie so i dont mess anything up)

3)I modified the asplashscreen file
sudo nano /etc/init.d/asplashscreen

#! /bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: asplashscreen
# Required-Start:
# Required-Stop:
# Default-Start: S
# Default-Stop:
# Short-Description: Show custom splashscreen
# Description: Show custom splashscreen
### END INIT INFO

do_start () {

/usr/bin/omxplayer -o hdmi /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/supplementary/splashscreens/video/mushberryintro.mp4 &

# line=$(head -n 1 /etc/splashscreen.list)
# isMovie=$(echo $line | grep -o “*.mpg”)
# if [ -z “$isMovie” ]; then
# /usr/bin/fbi -T 2 -once -t 20 -noverbose -a -l /etc/splashscreen.list &
#else
# mplayer $line &
#fi

exit 0
}

case “$1″ in
start|””)
do_start
;;
restart|reload|force-reload)
echo “Error: argument ‘$1’ not supported” >&2
exit 3
;;
stop)
# No-op
;;
status)
exit 0
;;
*)
echo “Usage: asplashscreen [start|stop]” >&2
exit 3
;;
esac

:

4)this time i left the cmdline alone so i can see what the text say

5)made the file executable
sudo chmod a+x /etc/init.d/asplashscreen

6)then i activated with
sudo insserv /etc/init.d/asplashscreen

and thats it and this what it keeps saying on boot text
“waiting for dbus address to appear”
and still no video
but it does go to emulationstation after a little bit but just no video :-(

[Mike Manley]

am i doing something wrong follow every step and i got a black screen with no video except the raspberry pi logo top upper left corner and then it just sits there and does nothing
