How do you loop and embedded video?

[Olargee]

I have an embedded video. It ends when it finishes playing.

Is there anyway to set it so it loops continuously?

Thanks in advance

Is the video embeeded in a worksheet ? and if so, is it displayed as an Icon or otherwise ?

Also,what is the video file extension ?, AVI, WMV ect ...?

I have embedded the video, or rather a series of videos as a Window Media Player File

What I did was embed an .m3u playlist. It is mostly MP4 and ASF files

What I did in excel was

Developer -> Insert -> ActiveX Controls -> More Controls -> Windows Media Player

It did run the list but it gives me no option to set the playlist to repeat

Try this in the worksheet module:

Private Sub WindowsMediaPlayer1_PlayStateChange(ByVal NewState As Long)

    If NewState = 1 Then
        WindowsMediaPlayer1.Controls.Play
        WindowsMediaPlayer1.settings.setMode "loop", True
    End If

End Sub

I'm sorry. That does not seem to work

Can you provide more specific details ?

I have changed the VBA code on the embedded object but The embedded video just stops after going through the playlist

no looping

and I've tried it twice

Is there any other way?

perhaps a solution that is not Excel or VBA related?

Is there anything I can write in the .m3u to cause it to loop?
