    @ashishtank said in Video player -> would someone like to help me to write a program?:

    @Goldjunge_Chriz got it… will check if i can help you with it. Is it fine that background script is starting and stopping the player based on GPIO input ?

    the player should actually always run automatically. So boot up and automatically play the first random video from “placeholder 1”. once all steps have been processed, he should simply play a video from “placeholder 1” again until the button is pressed. And so on in a loop, until you shut down the raspberry. I would like to avoid one or more actions.

    Thank you in advance, I think it’s great that you want to help :)

      Yes, i can help. infect i have also seen few open source scripts/players where one or more things are controlled by GPIO. I have limited time so i can not commit any time line for this yet.

        OK. I had actually hoped for relatively quick help, but if it doesn’t work sooner I’ll have to live with it :) I’m happy if someone supports me at all :)

              that looks very, very interesting.

              Can you help adapt the code for my needs? :) that with the playlists seems like a really interesting approach.
