Seamless not working at all - script incomplete

Open foocp opened this issue 9 years ago • 2 comments

Hi, the new seamless option (from the March 10, 2015 version) isn't working. I think the script doesn't call it properly. It seems to look for a "seamless=1" option in /boot/looperconfig.txt. When you add that it acknowledges that (seamless isn't 0) but throws this error afterwards: startvideos.sh: line 25: /opt/vc/src/hello_pi/hello_video/hello_video.bin: No such file or directory I've installed the scripts from Github onto a brand new 2015-05-05-raspbian-wheezy.

I've tried the old .img file that I downloaded last year from Google docs (the link is now dead), and here the loops are seamless! I wish I understood more of this, so I could brew my own. Steven, if you read this, I love your script and have it running on 10 Raspis right now, I'd really appreciate if you looked into this! Others would be grateful too, I'd say.

The error you're getting is from the hello_video.bin demo program not being there, you can compile it using sh /opt/vc/src/hello_pi/rebuild.sh
