Looping media, time out set

[Bruce Thew]

I play a 3 second media file and want to loop it for say 5 times and then have it stop. How?

So I play a yellow flag dropping form top to bottom of scene (filming live sports) I want it to drop 5 times and then stop.
I start it via Show 'Media Flag' (Hotkeys), but then have to tell it to Hide 'Media Flag' and sometimes it keeps dropping because I am paying
more attention to what is happening on the field.

So is there a method to tell it to stop showing the media clip?

Thank you for your time.

Add a VLC Video Source and then add the same video 5 times. You may have to add a different file and then edit the path.

Alternatively, if it's a MP4 file, you could just join 5 of them together with MP4Joiner , have it play once and show nothing.

Thank you will give this a try and let you know.
