need to alter static picture to video file - mika - Feb-21-2018

HELLO FRIENDS,

In my program, a static picture (Start.png) on pir motion changes to video (Myvideo.mp4).

Could you advise how to program if I need to alter static picture to video file (Myvideo2.mp4)
which plays in the loop/
and if pir sensor is HIGH.Myvideo2.mp4 stops and plays Myvideo.mp4.

#!/usr/bin/python
import subprocess as sp
import time
import os
from pirDetect import *
import sys
video = ["omxplayer", "filename", "-o", "both", "--win", "0 0 1280 720", "--aspect-mode", "fill", "--no-osd", "--orientation" ,"180","--vol", "-600"]
scareFile = "/home/pi/Projects/Halloween/ScareMedia/{0}Myvideo.mp4".format(sys.argv[1])
print(scareFile)
def onMotion(currState):
 if currState:
        video[1] = scareFile
        subVideo = sp.Popen(video)
 while subVideo.poll() is None:
            time.sleep(.1)
def showImage():
    os.system("sudo fbi -T 1 -d /dev/fb0 -noverbose -once /home/pi/Projects/Halloween/ScareMedia/{0}Start.png".format(
        sys.argv[1]))
showImage()
objDetect = detector(7)
objDetect.subscribe(onMotion)
objDetect.start()
os.system("sudo killall -9 fbi")
