Hi! Friends,
I am trying to make a video clip run in a seamless loop which I can display from the CD/DVD drive or directly from the hard drive but every method I try ends up with a pause between the end of the clip and the restart (before I even burn it to a disk). Thinking that disk access time might be the problem, I have also tried running the loop from a USB flash drive but it did not help. Can anyone tell me what might be causing the problem and, more important, how it can be overcome?
So far I have experimented with using various screensaver makers, using an HTML file to make a looping call to the video clip residing on my hard drive and putting a looping link in a DVD timeline. Another possibility may be to buffer the data stream as is done in streaming technology but, unfortunately, I have not discovered how such buffers are set up so I haven't been able to try this. The task seems simple enough but nothing I have tried so far seems to work. I should add that I can run a seamless loop while in the Adobe Premiere Pro editing mode but that's the best I have been able to do until now. Also, I would like to maintain the original quality of the clip which is 640x480 DV from a camcorder.
Helpful advice would be greatly appreciated.
