video looping with PiWall

[student050]

hello,

I have a problem.
I have 3 raspberry pi's, one raspberry pi is master en two of them are clients with PiWall.
If i send a video from the Pi master to the others it works fine.
Now i want to make it loop, so if the video stops that i stars over agian.
is this possible?
And is it maybe possible to make a playlist so I can play more then one video?

thanks

This should be 'doable' with a bit of programming

How are you 'sending' the video? I assume that you are typing something in to a terminal, or are you using 'drag and drop'

You first need to send one video using the command line, then put that command line into a program. Then add a loop, so it sends the video over and over again. Then add some code to read the playlist, select a video randomly, and send that one.

You may decide that you want some sort of selection screen, or other features. All possible with programming. Just take this step by step. Wait until you get each step to work before starting the next one. If it does not work, make sure that you have understood what you are doing and that you think that you have done it correctly. If you cannot solve your problem, post back here describing the problem clearly

Update: I have just checked what 'PiWall' is, and it seems that they supply some code. Although a lot of the site seems to be dated 2013, there is a recent update. I don't know what is possible with PiWall, but what I said above should be valid.
