play-2-videos-insync-2hdmiout-raspi5:


useing x11 (wayland complained about qt, you can change the layout in raspi-config)
with vlcsync, helps a little, no framesync.

vlcsync ip-address needs to be enabled in vlc:
main interfaces, enable LUA
main interfaces -> RC, TCP 127.0.0.42

i made it with 3 autostart entries, like this >

doku for raspi5

https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/66169/auto-mount-usb-stick-on-plug-in-without-uuid

Requirements

    Install pmount if not installed sudo apt-get install pmount
    This script mounts drives to /media/usb*, so make sure those folders aren't occupied. If you want a cleaner look, don't create any folders.

Udev rule

    Create file /etc/udev/rules.d/usbstick.rules

    Insert:

    ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd[a-z][0-9]", TAG+="systemd", ENV{SYSTEMD_WANTS}="usbstick-handler@%k"

    Save and close

Systemd service

    Create file /lib/systemd/system/usbstick-handler@.service

    Insert:

    [Unit]
    Description=Mount USB sticks
    BindsTo=dev-%i.device
    After=dev-%i.device

    [Service]
    Type=oneshot
    RemainAfterExit=yes
    ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/cpmount /dev/%I
    ExecStop=/usr/bin/pumount /dev/%I

    Save and close

Mount script

    Create file /usr/local/bin/cpmount

    Insert:

    #!/bin/bash
    if mountpoint -q /media/usb1
    then
       if mountpoint -q /media/usb2
       then
          if mountpoint -q /media/usb3
          then
             if mountpoint -q /media/usb4
             then
                 echo "No mountpoints available!"
                 #You can add more if you need
             else
                 /usr/bin/pmount --umask 000 --noatime -w --sync $1 usb4
             fi
          else
             /usr/bin/pmount --umask 000 --noatime -w --sync $1 usb3
          fi
       else
          /usr/bin/pmount --umask 000 --noatime -w --sync $1 usb2
       fi
    else
       /usr/bin/pmount --umask 000 --noatime -w --sync $1 usb1
    fi

    Give execute permission to the (root) user: chmod u+x /usr/local/bin/cpmount

    Save and close
