This tutorial will show you on how to Add, Edit or Remove the Startup Video.

The Bink video format is supported on Source 2007 and later, except GoldSrc, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and Source 2

For previous version of Source (as well as WON/Retail version of GoldSrc): You can just put the .avi file instead, then edit the StartupVids.txt (only in ) then point that to .avi instead (example: media/valve.avi).

Adding

Set the file name then click "Bink it!" to convert a .mp4 or .avi file to Bink.

If you like to add a Startup Video, you need "RAD Video Tool" from Bink Tools and a MP4 (might require QuickTime, which can be downloaded here) or AVI movie.

Note:licenses information see later

1. You open your mod folder.
2. Go to media or create a folder with the name media.
