I'm encountering a problem where tiles and events flicker seemingly randomly--even when the plugin is not being actively used (no gif/webm being displayed). This occurs even when this plugin is the only one turned on. Any idea what the cause of this might be?

Try with new update

Is there anyway to invert the gif?

Implemented in 1.3

I got this error as well. I don't know much about code, but I added // in front of line 1555 (i think) and that fixed it.

Sometimes webm I want to play freezes, its kinda random. The game still runs though, dialogue text etc still works.

Do you have any ideas how to avoid freezing? Tbh this has happened even with the standard play movie function, so it might be something on my end. Rpgmaker MV, windows 10.

It's RPG Maker MV only issue.

Thank you!

Use 0.48.4 version. It's the NW version which fixes the video play. And later updates I think add too many changes which can cause more issues. At least I tested my project with 0.48.4 and it runs fine.
But yeah, video play is bugged and it is not something anyone can fix. It's the engine issue for using old NW which has this issue (freeze, low video frames on some PC). The same happens to other video plugins as well or even the default "play movie" function.

Hello, can you do this to put the gif on the background of the battle?

Thank you!

Hey, this is a cool little plugin
I already found a salution thanks

Hi KageDesu, thank you for sharing your VPlayer plugin.

I wanted to share with you if you would be able to explore updating the plugin to include X and Y coordinates with negative values? Currently it is only accepting positive values which restricts the positioning of where the animation can be played (negative values required to play animations on the left side of the screen for X coordinates for example). Hope you would be able to look into this request, thank you!

My webms has black background when I convert them from gif to webm. How to remove that?

That means that his background is transparent

 

[Sieglinnde]

Is there something I am doing wrong? I've tried a thousand of things and nothing works... I have the webm file on the movies folder but it does not appear on the map

Here is the map

 

[ShadowDragon]

@Sieglinnde can you show us the event you used?
because it's hard to know if it's on parallel, autorun, action trigger etc.

so we cannot really help you with this low information though.
if you have the demo, you can see if it does work there.

Thanks for the concern man. I have already solved it. I mean, not with the plugin, but with another thing. Thanks anyway

Hey, I'm trying to use this to put in animated enemies for battles, and I don't know what to do.
I know nothing about coding, script editing, plugins, etc.

So I'm using MV.
I put in a webm file of the dude I want into the 'movies' folder, and I called the file itself Song
Song is the enemy's name.
So in the enemies system tab, I made Song's stats and crap, and I didn't select an image, but in the notes I wrote <GIF:Song>
When I go to do the battle with him though, it displays this error that says, TypeError, Cannot read property 'height' of undefined.

What, what do I do? His size should be the same as a standard default character sprite size, since he's the same as a human. I didn't make any custom sprites for the game.
Do I need to put in the dimensions of the movie somewhere? How do I do that? Do I just need to change the dimensions of the webm gif itself? I don't know what I'm doing or how to fix it.

I would appreciate some help because when it comes to this kind of stuff I'm about as knowledgeable as a newborn baby.

 

[TheAccordionMaster]

Okay, you know what, I just fixed my own problem. I don't know what I did, but it works now.

Yay!
