Re: idiot-proof endless video loops

ah, nice one, thanks! this particular video didn't require a seamless loop but i've worked with material before that does, i'll definitely give your method a shot.

I ended up just going with a bash script that would run omxplayer in a loop and executing it on boot.

Hi Ken,

The instructions contained in the manual in section 5.4 and 5.5 worked fine. Thank you.

What I'm actually after is for the video to run in a seamless loop. There seems to be a 25 second delay between the loop. any clues as to how to avoid this?

Re: seamless looping

Uh, I guess it technically doesn't have to loop, but if it doesn't, then when the video is done playing, it just dumps me back ... I'm not sure how I'd have it display an image between videos, and have it all seamless. The nice thing with the -L loop, is that it is seamless, so even if there's ...

Re: seamless looping

hi,
i just copied the folder "usr" you find in omxplayer-loop-multifile-bin.tar over the "usr"folder on your raspberry. so just paste and overwrite if asked .

also i regularly do:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo rpi-update

to have everything updated.

It would be trivial to change the looping script to lookup and loop whatever file is on the USB stick. You can still use RSYNC to put the media file on the SD card, or an assistant / ...

Re: seamless looping

sure - they'll play and loop, just follow the instructions here:
http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewt ... 37#p285237

(and use an HDMI -> vga adapter)

and feel free to PM me if you have any specific problems.
good luck.
