Hi, I am trying to find a solution for looping two videos on two seperate screens using Raspberry Pi 5 - It is for an art gallery and the videos will need to play automatically when the Raspberry is switched on. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Best wishes,

Corinna

Hi there @corinna212697 and welcome to the forum,

There’s definitely a few ways to go about doing that.

Do you know how you will be playing the video yet i.e. through a web browser or a program like VLC? Either way would slightly change the process of doing so (although not too much).

This tutorial for the Pi 4 shows how to make a video looper on the Pi 4.

Whereas this tutorial would show how to set up a Pi to boot automatically to a webpage, which would be very useful if you were playing a Youtube vid.

And although it is also for the Pi 4, this tutorial is probably closest to your needs.
