Can we add seamless looping to the PlayVideo() stuff?

Here is a loop-able video for testing:

Just wanted to bump this request. Can we get seamless video looping?

I've tried doing it manually, but was unable to do so without the playback stuttering.

Sorry not aware of any commands that can help, have you tried a different format for the video? I myself am right now using WMV for windows but that may not be best...

This actually works for me, I get a completely seemless loop:



You could add controls like this:

can play outside the main loop and sleep gives it time to acess and play the file or it can exit before it sarts if it takes a second to play

Interesting, just putting PlayVideo() or PlayVideoToImage() in the loop does appear to make it loop seamlessly. And here I was trying to detect when the video had ended and playing again.

EDIT: Upon further testing, there is still a bit of a stutter.

However, is spamming PlayVideo() every frame really ideal? Will this not cause any issues?
