    Hi all

    I need to automatically start and loop one or more video at startup. I'm using https://videolooper.de/ for this at the moment, automatically playing off whatever h.264 file(s) placed on a thumbdrive, but it doesn't handle large files too well, whereas LibreELEC can indeed handle 1080p even on a pi2. So I read that to start autoplayback and loop a single file, I can just add this to Startup.xml

    <onload>PlayerControl(Repeat)</onload>
    <onload>PlayMedia(/path/to/file.ext)</onload>

    Fine, but I found that file in /usr/share/kodi/addons/skin.estuary/xml/, on the root filesystem, which is squashfs, which again is read-only.

    - Any idea how to fix this easily?
    - Also - even if it's fixable by "just" making a new filsystem with the correct xml file on it, I still need a way to change the filename to be played, at runtime.

    Thanks in advance for any help
