Video Looper key bindings help

Post by jdjuggler »

I'm using the "pre configured" video looper found here - https://learn.adafruit.com/raspberry-pi ... r/overview
I have it configured to use the omxplayer in the video_looper.ini. Unfortunately, none of the key bindings are working. I'm looking to be able to use the next track/next video key binding. I'm not sure how to correct this. Any ideas?

This page from the omxplayer Github repo discusses key bindings:

Looking at the basics, it appears that the keys are bound by default. My problem is that none of the keys work while the video is playing.
Thanks,

I found out that this is a project by Tony DiCola. I'm not sure how to get a message to him, but he may know something about the key bindings??
Thanks,
JD

What output do you get when you enter:

Code: Select all

omxplayer --keys
from the command line?

The key bindings show command shows me the keys that bound. There are many. If I hit one of the keys, such as "next" or any other control key, nothing happens. My keyboard is working as I can type at the command prompt.
Any idea why these keys do not work during playback?
Thanks,
JD
