SUMMARY

This article describes how to play multiple video files in sequence.

DISCUSSION

In AutoPlay Media Studio 5.0, it is possible to play one video after another utilizing the On State event.

As an example, we will create a project with one button object and one video object. The user will click on the button, and load multiple videos into a table. The project will then play one video after another until each video has been played.

To accomplish this:

Insert the following code into your global functions (click project, global functions):
```
video_count = 1; --table index starts at 1
```

Insert the following code into the On Click event of your load button:

video = Dialog.FileBrowse(true, "Load Videos", "", "", "", "", true, true);


Video.Load("Video1", video[video_count], true, false);

Insert the following code into the On Finish event of your video object:

--Traverse the table


video_count = video_count + 1;





--ensures a valid file will be loaded


if video_count < Table.Count(video)+1 then


   --load the file


   Video.Load("Video1", video[video_count], true, false); 


end
