Rene, hlsl settings stop worked ! , glsl it's ok
try import my old hlsl settings and wonder why qmc2 report this :



and hlsl not work, i try with other HLSL settings floating in internet - not luck.
If remember right with previous qmc2 versions all ok.

That looks good, actually (unless the template check says something else meanwhile). There's been an update to the HLSL settings in MAME 0.163 / QMC2 0.53, and AFAICT 'pincushion' was removed in this update.

btw - i try with default mame hlsl - not luck again
[edit]
hmm, now try with command line too , hlsl not work, maybe problem is other , sorry Rene.

Still warm here ... anyway, I've just changed this so -config_path also supports relative paths now (SVN r6871). I hope it also works on Windows (should, but I haven't tested it yet).

Feature request: could you please include a "Side Art" tab in the Picture area too? This is the only type of artwork that doesn't have its own tab and there are tons of cool cabinet side arts that could be displayed into qmc2 as well. The folder could be named 'sa' into the data folder.

I've already started working on "additional artwork classes" that you could freely define yourself (#49). I'm basically open to add more "static" artwork classes when useful, but this approach is more flexible (and would include support for "side art" as well). I just need to complete this work ... no promise, but I'll try to do this in the next version.

I'm having a problem using a new feature (support for video snaps with system notes template) in Windows 8.1/10.
Videosnaps in a separate tab is working very fine for me (see image), but inside defaut template it's not.
I tried with my desktop and with my girlfriend's laptop too, but the same problem happens.
I haven't reported in bug tracker yet, because I don't know if this is a bug or some kind of configuration error (that's why I'm posting here first, and any help is welcome).
The test was done with official builds for 0.54 and 0.55 and using default example template (of course, I haven't implemented videosnaps support for alternative templates yet). If this information is relevant, I'm using K-Lite Codec Pack 11.3.3 for MP4 support.
Thanks

This looks like a Windows-specific limitation of QtWebKit in Qt 4.x.x.

I found a possible - but complicated - work around which I'm currently trying... if you're interested in the technical details see this archived blog post. I'll let you know if that works (I have my doubts), but even if it works I would provide the solution in the form of "alternative Qt DLLs", not as a replacement of the official ones .

While waiting for Qt to build... note that there's a better API for getting the video URLs than the macro used in the example template!
