| Is there a way to make movie playback loop?  Just using OpenMovie seems to play through once and then freeze on the last frame.  I need my movie playback to loop.  An obvious approach would be to simply call OpenMovie again whenever the movie has stopped playing but that is wasteful of CPU resources; is there some flag or something for looping a movie? |

| A work around could be to stored an animated gif and use that as a movie. You have control over the playback to. But drawback being poorer quality. There are tools to convert movies into gifs. |

| So there's no good way?  The animated gif workaround has a lot of drawbacks, including that there is no soundtrack. Which by the way brings up another question: how do you adjust the volume of a movie playing in Blitz? |

| i don't think you can :(. quite poor movie support. |

| movie support is currently poor in this regard. You can check if it's playing and open it again. |
