Is there anyway that I can replace the GameGuru Loading Screen, (the very first thing you see before the menu), with a video file?

They can be changed in this folder before building your stand alone.

Thanks for the reply Myke; I am aware that the Jpeg can be changed but I wondered if there was anyway for the system to recognise a video file instead of this splash screen Jpeg - I want to play the company logo before I present the game options to the player.

look in titlesbank\default, find the script that loads the screen you want and add the video in there.

Hey smallg, tried this already but the issue there is that those scripts are not attached to an object as they are not 'in-game' and as there are no global commands for video at the moment I can only use PlayVideo(e,v) and as there is no 'e' I get a run time error in title

Very true, didn't think of that part
I guess the only other way is to use lua to directly execute a file you include using an external player.
os.execute() is the command but obviously this is not a perfect solution.
