Is anyone else running into an issue running Nights into Dreams on MiSTer via Zaparoo? Getting the error "The System Memory is not ready for use." Tried several different BIOSes with no luck. Launching it directly from the core or via gamesmenu works fine.

let me know how you go! it should work but it's basically untested right now. did i post a build for it

it's using this project: https://github.com/kyx0r/nextfvp

so whatever ffmpeg supports, which is a lot. i can't say what is optimal for mister. i think h264 worked fine for me. 480p was ok. but not much bigger

you can use the keyboard keys on the page to control playback but there's no way to browse via this menu

it's more of a novelty thing rather than a full fledged video player
