How to use

This script works similarly to the integrated Play Video effect.

However, it keeps track of which videos in a folder it already played and will make sure that every video plays at least once.
Once no videos are left, it will clear the list and start over.

Additionally, this effect has effect outputs.
For now, it only has $effectOutput[videoLength] to get the length of the played video and use it in another effect, such as Show Text.

An added bonus is that it also supports a single video file so you can use the effect outputs for that, too.
