Custom Screen Saver Ignore CUSTOM VIDEO / path #875

Hey All, I thought the issue is related to Batocera, but I understood it is an EmulationStation related. So I refer to Batocera but I believe you will understand what I describe:


In Screen Saver Settings > I changed to custom video directory and I chose: //root/library

❌ I some random .mp4 video to test, It plays black screen... I also tried other videos from the Scraper and none worked, it showed Black Screen I got back to the Custom Video Directory to check if it saved it, and it did remember the path. I also tried other paths, because I wasn't sure if for some reason Batocera won't like this path.

βœ… When I put the same videos under //root/screenshots they all worked! but it's not the path I selected on the settings...

πŸ’’ I came back to the Video Settings again, it was on CUSTOM and remembered the path I restart Batocera (just in case, to try refresh if even needed..) but it didn't work.

❓ I'm not sure but maybe it's a Bug? or if I do something wrong, please let me know what is the solution to fix it?

Thanks ahead!
