A downloadable plugin

This quick plugin allows you to videos which will playback on the titlescreen of your project after a set amount of time with no inputs from the player has passed.

You can set multiple videos to play, and decide if you want them to play in sequence, or at random, and whether or not there is a break in between them where it shows the title screen again before showing the next video.

Pressing arrow keys, or ok, or cancel, or clicking the mouse will immediately end playback of the video and return the player to the title screen.

If the player interrupts a video by clicking, or pressing any other input, the video queue is not cleared, so any videos that have not been played yet will be played before the video that was just skipped.

The 'Play Random' setting will only ever queue one video at a time, so it could play the same video multiple times in a row without playing any others. Use 'Play Random w/ No Repeats' to prevent this.

There are two versions of this plugin, one for MV and one for MZ. MZ handles video playback in a slightly different way than MV did, so I couldn't make one file that worked properly for both engines. Use the one for the engine you use.

Does any1 know if this still works? i did as instructed and tried a picture and movie n neither worked.

I haven't heard anyone say it hasn't worked for them since I originally released it. 

I recall the fields in the plugin parameters were quite touchy on what they needed to have in them for it to work.

All of the information needed to get it working is in the help documentation. It still works fine in my test project.

I think maybe its because i dont have it as a .webm I left it as .mp4 and then also tried .png and neither worked for me. Does it have to be .webm\

When I tested I was using webm files. I think you need both, one for mobile deployment and the other for desktop deployment, similar to how you need two of each sound effect in different formats for the same reason.

The still images should work fine if they're png files, but it's possible that trying to use them at the same time as the mp4 was causing some kind of hiccup where it was always trying to load the mp4 and never getting past that.

Check the console (f12) and see if there are any errors being reported there.

gotcha thanks

add so that you could have movies playing with audio as well.
