      Are your videos loading from the same drive?
      Is the drive HDD or SSD?

      It maybe that the data transfer capabilities of the drive is being maxed.
      All the codec types you list are large file formats (h264 / wmv is much smaller)
      That would explain the pause being caused by the preloader.
      What resolution are the videos?

        Yes, all files are played from my SSD-Drive. Its the only drive I have in my notebook. My resolution is 1280x720. I tryed H264, but it there is the same problem. You notice when there is a video loaded in the background. And sometimes it even causes crashes.

          but i also notice that using H264 semms to be more stable  when working with my original patch described in my first post. I will do further tests, so mybe I will not need any proloading of the videofile then.

            @niknaim - have you tried using a Video Mixer actor instead of the Selector? you could Trigger Values of 0 and 100 to switch between video streams.

              the switching between the two movieplayers is/was? not the problem, its the changing the input movie of one of the players in the background.

                I recreated the patch on a Mac machine - no problems with changing Mov numbers on background players. sounds like a Windows bug??

                  hard to say. Sometimes it happens, sometimes it works fine.

                    If you create support request / bug report, we can try to reproduce the issue on my test machine.

                    I would need your video files shared (dropbox or similar)

                      I will prepare the main extract of my patch and the fileupload and then do the request. But first I will do some more tests.
