Setting ffmpeg_source Settings/Data

[fbnpn]

Hey everyone!
I've written a script to help us implementing a lot of photos and videos to a number of scenes, automatically created with the files within a folder and a "template" scene to duplicate from.
With the help of your script I already managed to add images and videos in one script, depending on the file extension. But I'm stuck now setting a setting within the ffmpeg_source's Source Data.
Specifically, we need the video to loop and I just can't get the correct data type it seems. I believe, it should look something like this:
S.obs_data_set_bool(settings,'loop', true)
with, of course, the addition of
S.obs_source_update(source,settings)

even exchanging the "bool" with "string" and trying something like
S.obs_data_set_string(settings,'loop', 'true')
doesn't work.

Does someone have an idea which property I have to manipulate with the "data_set" to get this to work?
Thanks a lot already!

It is "looping" the setting name, not loop.

PD: don't forget to release settings with obs.obs_data_release(settings).

You should check the json file to know the name of the source settings. Also, you can make a code like this to print them in console:

import obspython as obs

def get_settings(source_name):
    source = obs.obs_get_source_by_name(source_name)
    sourceSettings = obs.obs_source_get_settings(source)
    newSettings = obs.obs_data_create()
    obs.obs_data_set_obj(newSettings, "sourceSettings", sourceSettings)
    obs.obs_source_release(source)
    print(obs.obs_data_get_json(newSettings))
    obs.obs_data_release(settings)

get_settings("source_example")

Remember that settings are in json or shown by the script if you first change its value. By hand or by code (if you know its name previously).

Thank you sooo much!
Took me a little to find the boolean value has to be written capitalized, not just in small letters. But it worked out at the end!
You really saved my day! :)

Oh, also that. It's Python.
