<div dir="ltr">Recently did something very similar for a conference using a script in the raspi's startup folder to load a video into omxplayer and run it on a loop. Works well, but you can't interrupt it once it starts, the pi doesn't respond to commands once the video starts looping.<div><br></div><div>Found this adafruit instructional post that might be useful:</div><div><a href="https://learn.adafruit.com/raspberry-pi-video-looper/overview">https://learn.adafruit.com/raspberry-pi-video-looper/overview</a><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>-stephan</div><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Aug 24, 2016 at 3:06 PM, Nathan W. <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:nathan@frcv.net" target="_blank">nathan@frcv.net</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Hi Steve!<div><br><div><div>I would be happy to help.

One of the goals of the group is to have static displays in addition to flight-worthy (and actively flying) military aircraft. An idea that some of our members have thought about would be to have a small, looping video discussing some of the bullet-points on our static displays (the history of the aircraft as a whole, of that individual one, etc). The immediate thing I thought of was to have a small display and speakers connected to a Raspberry Pi and just have it on an ffplayer or mplayer loop.<br><br></div>Would this be something that some of the makers would like to become involved with?<span><font color="#888888"><br><br></font></span></div><span><font color="#888888">Steve Boyer<br></font></span></div>
