Displaying static image without looping

I googled and searched the knowledge base but I couldn’t find the answer for this.
The default looping time is 10s, so my image blinks every 10s, i think it’s less…
But someone mentioned lengthen the looping time would cause performance issues, which seems to be correct after i lengthen it to 1 min my lxc xibo crashed.
So how does one display static image with no looping?

Hi have you got anything else in your Layout or do you just have a static image?

Hi,
So i make layout A
then put a single image on layout A, stretch it to fill the layout.
there’s nothing else.

In the old version seems like the we can use region to disable looping but it doesn’t seem to exist anymore on 4.2

If you have a static image you want to show full screen you can schedule the image file directly form the Media Library using the row menu:

Using the form you can set a duration to use and then schedule, so you don’t have to first create a Layout which should be a better work flow for you. You can directly schedule Videos and Playlists in the same way!

With regards to the image blinking in the Layout, the image will refresh each time the Layout duration is reached so we would recommend that you input a higher duration to minimise the reload effect. It should not cause the Player to crash so can I ask what Player you are using so we can test our end?

It’s not the player that was crashing it’s the lxc container used to run odoo via docker compose.
I think I set the duration to 0 and then the web gui froze and the lxc shows increased cpu consumption almost 100%
So there’s absolutely no way to disable looping anymore other than increasing duration?
With your method it would still blink, but I’ll give it a try.
