I tried your first snippet and I'm not seeing the behaviour you've described. |

Unfortunately even on a freshly installed Raspian the described behaviour persists. Here is the error log for code snippet two (python-vlc repeat). For better readability I divided the log into four parts (Initialization, Playback, Repeat1, Repeat2). Initialization: Playback: Repeat1: Repeat2: |

I filled a ticket on the VLC bug tracker, which was just closed. They think the problem is the 'third party "mmal_xsplitter" plugin' (https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/22811). When using the prepacked GUI-VLC and Tools->Preferences->Video->Output is set to 'MMAL x11 splitter for Raspberry Pi' the behaviour shows. When Output is set to 'Automatic' it doesn't. Edit: |

If I use VLC through that python script, it doesn't use MMAL X11 splitter for me. But I'll pass the issue on, now that you've narrowed it down. Thank you. |

I see. Thank you both for having taken the time to tend to my problem. |
Doesn't quite fit my experience. It happens almost always for H.264 video it seems, even if the same file is played multiple times by the playlist. In contrast, it reliable does not happen between some H.265 videos of same resolution. So I would look into the differences between the H.264 and H.265 setup. |

When using python-vlc the player closes and reopens between playlist items. This occurs on Raspian but not on another computer with Ubuntu. Do you have an idea how to prevent this behaviour and have a seamless transition instead?
Example code:
This happens also when the playback is repeated (or looped).
I can also rule out that this is a python-vlc thing. The interruptions between the playlist items happen also when using libvlc. And again, when using Ubuntu/Gnome the playback window/fullscreen doesn't collapse before repeating the item or playing the next. So what are my options?
Where to look next? Is this a Raspian window manager thing? Why does this behaviour doesn't show in the GUI version?(see #4 (comment)).Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qP8mWpIcpg (downloaded with youtube-dl).
