Matthias,
It's very simple to do what you've described using smil. Here's an
example of two real media files played back-to-back, when one ends the
other starts, and they will continually loop.
<smil>
<head>
<layout>
<region id="videoRegion" left="5" top="5" width="400"
height="180"/>
</layout>
</head>
<body>
<seq repeat="indefinite">
<video id="Video1" region="videoRegion" src="url to 1st real media
file here"/>
<video id="Video2" region="videoRegion" src="url 2nd real media
file here"/>
</seq>
</body>
</smil>
If you want to play it embedded in a webpage, then include the following
html embed command:
<embed src="url to your smil file" type="video/x-pn-realvideo-plugin"
controls="ImageWindow" autostart="true">
Hope this helps.
