Need Help 1.7.8 xibo client

1

I’m wondering if someone could help me. I’m running 1.7.8 on a toshiba tablet running win 8.1.

I’ve followed the instructions for the regedit to use IE11 but the youtube stream i’m trying to run is still coming up with the can’t play html5 video error. Even though it plays fine through the browser.

Any Suggestions???

So if you have IE11 Installed on your tablet then when you installed 1.7.8 Xibo client it should make those registry changes for you.

You can check it in the registry as I assume you did (also make sure you have the correct entry for correct 32/64 bit workstation).

Now, assuming that your Xibo client knows it should use IE 11 - which you can further check by displaying this layout on your player - https://www.dropbox.com/s/t8mt0skh6a9hpr6/export_support-what-is-my-browser.zip?dl=1

So, for example, let say I want to display Sky news stream from youtube with autoplay script

I’d select the embedded html module in Xibo to do that

In HTML to embed

<iframe width="1770" height="1070" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/y60wDzZt8yg?autoplay=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

HEAD content to embed (including script tags)

<script>
      var tag = document.createElement('script');
      tag.src = "https://youtu.be/bcuc2Qwa3g8?";
      var firstScriptTag = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
      firstScriptTag.parentNode.insertBefore(tag, firstScriptTag);
      var player;
      function onYouTubeIframeAPIReady() {
        player = new YT.Player('player', {
          height: '1070',
          width: '1770',
          videoId: 'onldzSzdqlM',
          events: {
            'onReady': onPlayerReady
          }
        });
      }
      function onPlayerReady(event) {
        event.target.playVideo();
      }
</script>

Note, that will autoplay in layout designer as well.

what should the registry setting be 11001 or 11000?

Does it matter that i installed the player before updating the browser?

both should be fine, just make sure it’s in the right place 32/62 bit will have different paths.
