MAME Attract Videos

Added the MAME attract video pack from http://www.darrensweb.org/mame_videos.php

Its a BIG download via bittorrent (over 1Gb) but well worth it.

They work really well in Mamewah too. Here is an example snippit from the mame.ini file (the Mamewah one not the MAME one) :

### Artwork Locations ###
artwork_1_image_path c:\mame\snap
artwork_2_image_path c:\mame\artwork
artwork_3_image_path c:\mame\cabinets
artwork_4_image_path c:\mame\flyers
artwork_5_image_path c:\mame\marquees
artwork_6_image_path c:\mame\cpanel
artwork_7_image_path
artwork_8_image_path
artwork_9_image_path
artwork_10_image_path
movie_preview_path c:\mame\videos
movie_artwork_no 1

##########################################################

So basically you tell mamewah to replace the artwork_1 images (or wherever you are displaying the snap images) with the videos. The video doesn't start for a couple of seconds so it doesn't pause when you are scrolling through your list of games.

Theres some other vids available for other emulators at http://www.emumovies.com/ but i've not tried them yet .....
