problem with video show: omxplayer with green screeen after first video / raspberry B

[Jörg W.]

Hello,

for presenting several art videos in a loop I would like to run
omxplayer several times in a loop. Unfortunately I got a green screen
after the first one:

If I use omxplayer several times from console without X, from the second
video on, the images of the video are replaced by a green screen.

I have a wheezy "Linux raspberrypi 4.1.13+ #826 PREEMPT Fri Nov 13
20:13:22 GMT 2015 armv6l" and a raspberry B.

After upgrading the system today, omxplayer with "--loop" works very
well, but a try with a second video fails. Any hints?

With kind regards

Jörg

Edit the videos you want to loop round into a single large video and loop
that?

I'd try doing the edit with avidemux but others may suggest better
programs to use.

I asked the omxplayer team to integrate --loop. Now we have that option
and it's working very well. Thanks to omxplayer developers for the great
work.

Now I'm not able to present two videos without reboot and I have no idea
how to fix that.

For anyone still searching that found this thread - try upping the GPU memory:

gpu_mem=128 in config.txt

Hi,

incase you are new to the comp.sys.raspberrypi news group, there are
three conventions that we follow to make it far easier for everyone
to read.

1) The reply you type should be after the previous message(s) text, or
interleaved with it. Not at the top, which is the default for some
badly designed online services such as google groups/mail, and poor
quality PC software such as Outlook and Outlook Express - these
particular programs can be fixed with a patches from:-

2) You should edit the previous message(s) to just the points directly
relevant to your reply, and not just include the entire thing.

3) Make sure all your lines are less than 76 characters wide, to
prevent unsightly spillage of odd words on to the next line, and to
make it easier for people replying.
