Graphics, sound and multimedia • Auto Video Looper /w GPIO control

Hey Guys, I'm posting this to hopefully get some insight on what is the best CURRENT method for executing the functionality I'm after... Just for my own due diligence I have done a bunch of research but it seems most avenues of execution for the desired functionality are utilizing old software options within the R-Pi that have since been deprecated (OMXplayer)... and it seems as if VLC is the most current option for a looper unless I'm unaware of another option.

Hardware I'm using : Raspberry Pi 4B

Functionality I'm after: Autostart Video looper with two states(Two videos). (Auto starting/w GPIO control/interrupt

-Upon Boot up Video Looper Auto launches and plays "Video 1" continuously.
- When assigned GPIO "input" trigger event occurs; Video 1" stops and "Video 2" Plays momentarily then when "Video 2" is complete, it automatically reverts back to " Video 1" continuous loop UNTIL "GPIO Input" trigger event occurs again.
if at all possible I'm trying to execute this with as clean as possible in regards to transitioning from "Video 1" to "Video 2".. so it appears seamless and doesn't have an obvious " Hiccup"

I'm open to any advice in regards to executing this as efficient as possible.

Thanks in advance!
