Game video thumbnail fades to picture when video's playing

This is a pretty straight-forward/simple bug, but no one seems to be addressing it.

On games where there is a video in the thumbnail, the slideshow will automatically fade to the next picture, even when the video is playing.

Reproduction Steps

Here’s an example game:

  1. Play the thumbnail video

  2. Wait

The slideshow image will overlap the video while the video is playing

It works fine for me, I don’t have this problem

Sometimes, I will have this problem, sometimes not. Sometimes the video automatically plays, and sometimes not.

The typical ratio of which this problem occurs to me is probably a 1:3 (When the slideshow image overlaps: when the video works fine)

I don’t understand why this issue is not being properly addressed this happens to me for every single Roblox game that has a video in its thumbnail and this is a pretty big deal as its screwing up the trailers that the devs are trying to show

I can confirm that this is an issue.

Let’s pretend that your game has a 20 second video followed by a thumbnail. If the user’s mouse isn’t hovering over the video’s GUI frame, the slide-show will move on after ~10 seconds to the thumbnail while the video audio is still playing in the background.

Here is a video of the reproduction steps recreating the bug: https://youtu.be/xkBa-OH6kuw

Those were some REALLY complicated steps. :wink:

I hope this is helpful to anyone who sees this.

Could it be that the video has the game’s thumbnail inside of the video?

Hello! I am in the process of checking over bug reports and following up on some bugs that haven’t received any activity in a while. I am unable to reproduce the issue.
Is this issue still occurring or can you confirm that this bug has been resolved?
