I want looping video for digital signage #2
Comments
Yes, that is definitely in the pipeline. I suspect I will probably implement a way to pass arbitrary arguments to mpv, with video looping tied to its own special shortcut, or perhaps just enable it by default. time will tell... The best solution is to probably just edit the relevant S03Video* script to your liking with the "--loop-playlist" flag. Alternatively, (this is not a very good idea) you could simply create a new larger video that is just the old video on repeat a large number of times. The last thing I can think of (and this is probably a very, very bad idea) is to simply specify the same video multiple times to vobu with the -v option or by creating a folder full of identical videos/symlinks to one video. Some things to know however: Using "-v myvideo.mkv" at infinitum the maximum number of videos is probably limited by the max number of elements bash can store in an array... which is apparently an unlimited number? Now it is interesting that: "ISO 9660 filesystems can have up to 2 exp 32 blocks, i.e. 8 TiB" https://wiki.osdev.org/ISO_9660 So you could have (depending on the runtime/encoding/resolution of the video, your disk size, phase of the moon etc.) so many copies of the video on disk so as to be practically infinite. But again, this most certainly not a good way to do this, I would just edit the S03Video* scripts. hope that helps. |
I am dissatisfied by your suggested workarounds |

I am sure someone wants a linux distro that plays a video one time and then stops but I am not that person
