Video opening .bat

Hello,

My history teacher asked me to give a presentation, and I've decided to create a little batch program to launch videos. However, I would like the second video to start after the first one is closed, and the third to start after the second, and so on...
Unfortunately, I'm having trouble with this. I would also like to find a command to make the video full screen because the 'full' command only makes the MS-DOS window full screen and not the video.

    Good evening

    you can always try to play with "ping localhost -n XX >nul" where "xx" is the waiting time in seconds
    it would look something like this: 

    @echo off start video1.avi ping localhost -n30 >nul start video2.avi ...


    etc etc

    after that, does the ping depend on the length of your videos?

    Hello, maybe with: 

     Start /wait video1.avi Start /Wait video2.avi


    It seems to me that the Wait argument pauses as long as the called program is open. Check it out. ;)

      Thank you for your response, but I found it in the meantime.
      Unfortunately, not in time for my presentation.
      All I had to do was ping to pause and we can take as much time as we want afterward.
