Random play on videos?

**Magma** · 02-26-2004, 06:46 AM

Hi,

I've been playing around with MediaEngine for the last week or so with my new carputer.. it seems to do everything I want it to do and very effectively (I'll make sure I donate some money when I've got everything in and working!).

One question, though.. is it possible to set a random play option while watching videos? I've got this option in for audio playback, but it doesn't appear when viewing videos. I've got a big directory full of music videos which I'd like to stick on random play to have a kind of mobile MTV for passengers, see

Tis possible to do, but right now we are working on the GPS section of the software, so you probably won't see this feature until then.

Here is a screenshot of some of the testing phase for GPS integration.

Just nice to know it's been noticed

Good stuff on the GPS and congrats on a great app so far!!

I've been using winamp for this. Works like a charm. I was told that the latest version of me support winamp so would it be possible to use this feature on me?

As far as I understand (which isn't a great deal!) ME uses Winamp for audio but still uses Media Player for videos?

I guess I could set it up as an external program or something, but I've always found Winamp a bit slow at playing videos.. especially big files.

so you can use windows media player to play videos in me? Is it stable?

erm, I just use whatever it uses as default.. I figured it was Media Player as it seems an awful lot quicker than Winamp (which it uses for music). I've got no clue really
