What about starting a Letterboxd list for this?
Cool idea, at least might give some people ideas. Added my own thoughts as I'm currently 8 months in to running all the MCU movies. I have it timed to take about a month per movie so going to take some time.
So far my 2 favorite movies are:
Persepolis: Happens to be one of my favorite animation movie. The rendering on the e-Paper screen is stunningly beautiful.
Paperman: Short and cute animation movie. Renders very well on the e-Paper screen.
I played "Le Voyage dans la Lune" from 1902 on it. I think old silent movies are in general good to play them in super slow on the e-paper. Next I will try to play the monochrome version of Mad Max Fury Road.
Question - When using the random frame mode does it ever advance to the next file in the folder?
I have added Toy Story Back To The Future Space Odyssey Gravity
random-frames
will give you random frames within a single video file. If you also use random-file
you will get random frames and also pick a random file. You can see the code piece that controls this here. Thinking about it logically with random-frames
only the script will never reach the "end" of the video since it's just grabbing a random point in the video each time. It will never know that it needs to move on to the next one. By adding random-file
it will move between the files as well.
I've just set-up a 10.3 Waveshare screen and loving the images from the following B&W classics:
Citizen Kane Casablanca Brief Encounter Psycho
I also have gone for 2001 A Space Odyssey - colour so some images are not as impressive on the monochrome screen.
Thanks so much for this GitHub!
I've had my player going for about 2 years now. The only problem was an SD card that went bad. On mine I enjoy:
Doctor Strangelove - great scenes Back to the Future 2001 A Space Odyssey One of my own shorts from YouTube!
After about 1 year of playing my favorites so far are:
Lawrence of Arabia The Good , The Bad, The Ugly Monty Python - Holy Grail Who Framed Roger Rabbit?
My favorites are some B&W classics with great lighting:
Seven Samurai Bicycle Thieves Charulata
Also some scenes from cinema paradiso are powerful
Mine has been playing Highlander (my fav film) for a few years now.
