[Trigger a program at the beginning of taxi phase]

Except now it is running over and over again.  I'm know this is probably a dumb question and I'm sorry for asking, but how do I get that function to stop running.  I've got it looking at a global variable, but it runs over and over anyways.

function vlc()

checkiftrue=1

math.randomseed(os.time())

math.random(); math.random(); math.random()

randomNumber = math.random(1,3)

 

print(randomNumber)

 

if randomNumber==1 then

os.execute [[""C:\\Program Files\\VideoLan\\VLC\\vlc.exe" "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_g2qU2pSzTY" "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OAUUrM87jg8" "--fullscreen" "--no-qt-fs-controller" "--qt-start-minimized" "--qt-fullscreen-screennumber=2" "--no-video-title-show" "vlc://quit""]]

elseif randomNumber==2 then

os.execute [[""C:\\Program Files\\VideoLan\\VLC\\vlc.exe" "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_g2qU2pSzTY" "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFnTXoKeWIE" "--fullscreen" "--no-qt-fs-controller" "--qt-start-minimized" "--qt-fullscreen-screennumber=2" "--no-video-title-show" "vlc://quit""]]

elseif randomNumber==3 then

os.execute [[""C:\\Program Files\\VideoLan\\VLC\\vlc.exe" "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_g2qU2pSzTY" "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTm1I5lBDrA" "--fullscreen" "--no-qt-fs-controller" "--qt-start-minimized" "--qt-fullscreen-screennumber=2" "--no-video-title-show" "vlc://quit""]]

end

return

end

 

 

function checkPushback()

if checkiftrue==0 then

 

event.control(66483,"vlc")

return

 

end

end

 

checkiftrue=0

checkPushback()

Success!   Thank you for your help!

 

function vlc()
checkiftrue=1
os.execute [[""C:\\Program Files\\VideoLan\\VLC\\vlc.exe" "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_g2qU2pSzTY" "--fullscreen" "--no-qt-fs-controller" "--qt-start-minimized" "--qt-fullscreen-screennumber=2" "vlc://quit""]]

end

 

function checkPushback()
if checkiftrue==0 then

event.control(66483,"vlc")

end
end

checkiftrue=0
checkPushback()

I use Self-Loading Cargo and I am trying to figure out if I can get FSUIPC to open a video (Aer Lingus Safety Announcement) using VLC media player when I start to push back from the gate.  Any help would be appreciated.  I have seen how to run a program when FSUIPC starts up, but not how to start a program when a condition is true.  Also, I'm not sure what Self Loading Cargo uses to determine the beginning of the taxi phase.
