I was just wondering if there was a way to launch these movies in FCEU directly from the command line. I love watching these videos so much and i'd I think it'd be great to run random movies as screensavers for my arcade cab.

I've added such a mod to my Linux version. I don't know if that does any good for you though. It won't affect any other versions, and needs a C compiler.

Thanks for the replay. I guess i'm stuck for a while, but if anyone ever updates FCEU, consider command line movie playing a request :)

I just wrote a program which generates a md5 for every rom (zipped or uncompressed) in the directories you give it (stored in a SQLite db), and matches the checksum stored in the video file to the file that way... but... um, now I realize that FCEU does not support command line movie playing! Some one mind helping, I'm hoping I didn't write 300 lines for nothing :) It's writen in C#, so even you linux nuts may be able to use it via mono :P
