Video File with Gstreamer Ingestor (Multifilesrc)
-------------------------------------------------

**Note**\ :


* 
  If you don't want the video to loop with the multifilesrc element, set the ``loop`` property to ``FALSE``.

* 
  If one wants to play the video for specific number of iterations, set the ``loop`` property to ``FALSE`` and the ``stop-index`` property to the number of iteration starting with 0, which would play it once. Setting the ``loop`` property to ``TRUE`` will override the ``stop-index`` property.

* 
  The ``loop`` property of the ``multifilesrc`` plugin does not support video files of MP4 format. Hence, MP4 video files will not loop and the recommendation is to transcode the video file to AVI format.

* 
  If general stream errors with multifilesrc element are observed when certain video files are used, then transcode the video file to ``H264`` video with ``.avi`` container format to ensure compatibility.
