Can we get more Events that are workable with for Videos?
Are there play video centric official event codes that do these things

1 - Video is playing in the background looping, there is a text conversation happening that you can read and confirm to continue the conversation with many texts
A video is playing, there are text dialogue going on that you can press enter to continue the conversation but the video keeps playing
=What the game has so far is you can get a video playing then only have one text dialogue, then the text disappears, then the video disappears, then a new text again appears and the video has to be event started again from the start
=Like for example, a video of a flying plane for example only, then you want people talking and has texts talking without the video being removed from the screen

2 - Choose Your Own Adventure but with videos
=

3 -

I didn't really touch the play video part WHEN I was using Bakin. To meit seems you're putting everything into 1 event maybe.. IF you are, then the event will run everything in list order.. you'll need to seperate the video and dialogue into two event if you want them to play at same time.

So going off your description, how i'd sort that out myself if there's no other option.. is to take a picture of the last frame on your video of the planes and save it.

in 1 event have 2 pages set 1st to parallel..
-Play video
-wait 1sec
-display picture (the one of the final video frame.
-switch ON to Page A.

That should play the video and then display the last final video frame as a picture once the video closes.

In 2nd event.. set it to run parallel (so it runs same time as your video)
Display chat dialogues you want to happen during the video and picture display.
-chat 1
-chat 2
-chat 3
etc.. until end of dialogue..
-erase picture (or fade out picture if they have that option)

NOT entirely sure that would work, not tested it but that's what I thought of as a workaround for what you described you want to happen. Test that, see if it work.

I'm sure someone else asked for more options for the video player to be added before.

Oh.. you want the video to play first, then dialogue to happen later...
so same with the picture of last frame if you want the last frame of the video to display still.

At the top of the 2nd event add in a <wait> and set the timer to how long the video is before the dialogue starts...??? maybe that'd work.

I've tried it all and there are no options to get this idea to work, the idea is there are no options to do this and want to tell devs I want this to be a feature

So far they did say they are planning to do a Cutscene editor, hopefully it includes Videos

Yeah, so you basically want to be able to play a video in the background and still be able to have control over text dialogue chat boxes, show pictures above the video playing and such.

I think you're gonna be waiting a while for that and I wouldn't get your hopes up with the cutscenes thing the devs have mentioned.

That will probably be just black bars at top and bottom of screen automation of sorts so you can do cutscenes with models rather than videos and animation. This you can do already but it takes a short time to set up and trying to move the black bars at same time, so it'll probably just be made easier. I think actually I seen someone do this via a script a while back to be fair.
