The "nothing to play"- Video runs in an endless loop
mplayer -idle -slave -input file=/tmp/mplayer-input -loop 0 idle_video.avi
When there's something to play, I send something like
echo "loadfile action1.avi" >/tmp/mplayer-input
That file plays again in a loop until the user is fed up with it, and the
"idle" video starts again, again in a loop.
If the video should play just once, I would have started it by a sequence
like
loop -1
loadfile action1.avi
loadfile idle_video.avi append
Then I would at regular intervals issue
get_file_name
to find out if the action1.avi was finished playing to then reset it to an
endless loop.
Good luck!
