Thanks DazzleHP. I thought that I had tried it like that last night (it was very late). I will give it another go, and put the full set of MP4's in there too. Any recommendations on a good skin? I did really like the visual aspect of Hyperspin, but everything else was a pain. Or do I really need to wait for Evo?

This is my first post (be nice!). Bit of background to how I arrived here: I have used Hyperspin in my custom built cabinet for a few years, and decided to re-vamp it, it has always been a little slow and has far to many games. I have a Hyperspin and Emu-Movies membership. I upgraded to MAME 0.160, and have started to use the HLSL filters, this makes the games look much more authentic on my 21" SONY CRT (1280x1024@85Hz). HLSL has been the tipping point for Hyperspin, and introduced crazy LAG, making games like Mortal Kombat 2 have shudder and be unplayable. Taking Hyperspin out of the equation and using MAME directly has a perfectly smooth game. I think that the flash based menu system of Hyperspin is just to taxing (even on a Core2Duo - 2.9Ghz!) I have the set of MP4 videos from Emu-Movies, but I am not sure where to place them to get them to show up in GameEx. Could someone tell me the path? Will the video's play in the Demo version (haven't paid for the app yet, still playing)? I have also upgraded the Host OS to Win8.1, shouldn't be an issue right? I think that I might stick with the Demo until the new GameEx-Evolution arrives, as I *assume* that it will be here soon, and I don't really want to pay twice. Keep up the great work, GameEx is MUCH more simple to configure than the nightmare that is Hyperspin. I look forward to Evo as the teaser video looks like it will equal Hyperspin for the eye candy menus.
