i used AsyncGetToFile to preload a video to the local file system, when i use the roVideoScreen object to play it it still shows the title screen with "retrieving" loader.
what exactly is this loader doing if the file is already local?
It would be loading the beginning of the file into the decoder. But I'm not sure I understand -- you're loading an entire video file into the local file system? How big is the file? I wouldn't expect there would be room in the file system to store more than a couple of minutes of video.
