How could I HOLD the last frame of the video?

[dfleming]

Hello,

Here is what is happening:
I have setup QLC+ to have a chaser with several videos set to "HOLD INFINITE", however on the last frame of the video instead of holding the last frame it just closes the video.

What I want to happen:
I want the last frame of each video to still be visible until I click NEXT on the cue list.

Ideas?
I am trying to avoid using OSC to connect with my existing powerpoint. I would like to just use QLC+ for my video, audio, and lighting cues.

A quick and dirty solution: capture the video's last frame and add these images in the next step to your chaser. Set the timing to infinite, and you will have control of the timing now.

Thanks! I couldn't easily import an image and don't want to use RGB Matrix to do so. I will try looping a short video with just the last frame repeated. Too bad we have to use workarounds. It feels like QLC+ is so close to being an all-in-one controller.

If you are editing the video yourself, I would copy the last frame, and extend that beyond where you think you need it. You won't be able to fade the video except at the end.

Good morning,
I used VLC launched by QLC+ in the past. In the VLC interface settings, check the box: pause on the last image of a video

Another possibility, set the step duration to the exact length of the video, and use the pause button to pause it near the end, then un-pause it when you're ready to continue.
