    Need help with simfile background code

    My song is 2:30, roughly.
    I have a 20-second .avi loop.
    I put my loop into Windows Movie Maker, and had a seemless loop for the duration.
    Issue is, the avi was then 26MB.

    Since Stepmania can loop too, I decided to make it use a 20-second version, and hope it loops properly.
    It does not.

    When the transition comes, it looks as if the new iteration is fading from black, instead of from the last iteration.

    I'm using the following code:
    0.000=loop.avi=1.000=0=0=1=====

    1) What could I do to solve this problem? Ideally, I'd like to use the 1.3MB, 20-second avi, for easy packaging.
    2) What do the 1.000=0=0=1 stand for? I'm familiar with programming, however am unsure which variable does what.

    Forget this entire thread, I've been a dumbass.
    When I used Windows Movie Maker to undo the loop copying, to get back to the original 20-second version, I forgot to uncheck "Fade In", and happened to use the very first iteration.

    In short, the avi itself was fading from black, and I'm an idiot.
    Sorry for taking up your time.
