Linux player status and plans

no disrespect meant for your hard work here, but from perspective on regular user… When we speak about confusion, please address this abandonware link: Who knows how many people have went into this rabbit hole and tried to do following: download snapd system just to be able to use snap technology for Xibo linux player and have of course miserably failed, only to waste even more time from each of them to search for answer why it does not work, and just to finally find out that this Xibo snap …

Xibo Player on Ubuntu may not display media elements in the Webpage component due to limited browser support or missing dependencies.

Has anyone had issues with the Xibo Player on Ubuntu not displaying media elements within a Webpage component? Everything else seems fine, but embedded videos/images don’t load. Any suggestions?

Xibo Snap player is abandonware:

Xibo for Linux | Xibo Open Source Digital Signage

Some user reported for Xibo Snap player to try change to X11 instead of Wayland.
Also there is Xibo Snap player backend rendering engine problems being reported.

There is Arexibo, unofficial player here:

New (unofficial) player implementation for Linux

It is of course not quite as complete as the existing one, and covers what we need currently. You can have a look here: The main differences, apart from the implementation language, are: All content is shown from a single webview, with HTML generated from the XLF, and JS glue code Focus on automated deployment,…

Yes, this can happen if required browser dependencies or codecs are missing try installing chromium-codecs or switching the embedded browser engine in Xibo settings.
