Can one button start a different video each time I press it?

Hi,

We need to setup a button so that it will play a different video each time it is pressed.

Explanation:

-Button #1 is linked to three different videos (A,B,C).

-First press of button #1 starts video A.

-Second press starts video B, and third press starts video C.

Then, on the next press of button #1, video A will play and then B, C, and so on.

Can this be done in BrightAuthor, and how?

Thanks.

    This shouldn't be to hard to do.

    More info needed.

    • What shows on the screen before the first button press? (during idle time)
    • What happens when video A is done, and there is no button press?

    Can you explain how this can be done in Bright Author?  I would like to have it start in the initial state (home).  Then press 3 on the keyboard to have it play 1.mp4 the first time, then return to initial state.  Second time pressing 3, plays 2.mp4 and then returns to initial state.  Third time pressing 3, plays 3.mp4 and then returns to initial state.

    How can I accomplish this?  Thanks!

    Video List in BrightAuthor can do that.

    https://brightsign.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DOC/pages/370671838/Media+List+Video+List+Image+List+Audio+List

     

    With "Play from beginning..." unchecked, every time the list is entered, the next item is played.
