Paralys Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Ok, so this is really pointless, but still, it's going to be funny, though I need a bit of help since I'm not used to writing batch files. My friend sent me this video clip that she found on YouTube last night, and I thought it would be funny to set my computer up to play it while I was at school on repeat (hopefully even full screen) just to bug my parents while I was gone. It can be in any video format that you want if you help me write the batch file lol just figured it'd be a fun little prank. Video clip: http://youtube.com/watch?v=eaE9hvLvfbs (Don't flame, it's on my own box, I'm not screwing with anyone else's computer.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari6502 Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Can't help with the batch file, but if that was running continuously in my house, i'd turn it off with a baseball bat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
