How to add a splash video to be displayed on game startup (2 methods)


This tutorial shows you how to add a splash/logo video to be displayed when the game is launched. There are currently two methods available for adding a splash video. Personally I recommend using method 2 as it's a lot more flexible.

Quick note:We recommend using mkv (Matroska) with vp8 video codec & ogg (vorbis) audio codec because it's an open-container format & it also allows embedding of multiple language audio tracks & subtitles. For more information on Visionaire Studio & supported video formats, please check here.
