How can i run multiple times this same code? For example 12 times?
sed -n 1,1p 00-02.txt | sed -e 's/^/<video length="-1" src="mp4:/' -e 's/$/" start="0"></video>/' >>playlist.txt echo -e "$(sed -e '1,1d' 00-02.txt)n" > 00-02.txt cat 00-02.txt | sed '/^$/d' >> 00-02a.txt rm 00-02.txt mv 00-02a.txt 00-02.txt sed -n 1,1p spot.txt | sed -e 's/^/<video length="-1" src="mp4:/' -e 's/$/" start="0"></video>/' >>playlist.txt echo -e "$(sed -e '1,1d' spot.txt)n" > spot.txt cat spot.txt | sed '/^$/d' >> spota.txt rm spot.txt mv spota.txt spot.txt
All the code belove must be replicated N times
something like
for n in {1..12}; **ALL THE COMMANDS BELOVE**; done
But it does not work for multiple lines of command.
Any issue?

Using a while
loop and a counter:
#!/bin/bash iterations=12 count=0 while [ "$count" -lt "$iterations" ] do sed -n 1,1p 00-02.txt | sed -e 's/^/<video length="-1" src="mp4:/' -e 's/$/" start="0"></video>/' >>playlist.txt echo -e "$(sed -e '1,1d' 00-02.txt)n" > 00-02.txt cat 00-02.txt | sed '/^$/d' >> 00-02a.txt rm 00-02.txt mv 00-02a.txt 00-02.txt sed -n 1,1p spot.txt | sed -e 's/^/<video length="-1" src="mp4:/' -e 's/$/" start="0"></video>/' >>playlist.txt echo -e "$(sed -e '1,1d' spot.txt)n" > spot.txt cat spot.txt | sed '/^$/d' >> spota.txt rm spot.txt mv spota.txt spot.txt count=$(( count + 1 )) done
