Thanks for the prompt response!
I tried this: {"src":"http://localhost:1880/home/pi/Pictures/1.jpg"}
but still no luck
As a workaround, I find that "http://192.168.1.188/1.jpg" will work
For safety reasons it should not be possible to display files from your local folders. The ui-media node creates an API to make it possible, but the API points to a specific work directory and only medias in this directory can be shown.
If you want to display pictures and you don't want to upload the files one by one in the Node-RED interface, you can simply copy and paste the pictures to the work directory of the node (usually .node-red/lib/ui-media/CATEGORY or .node-red/project/PROJECT_NAME/lib/ui-media/CATEGORY as far as I remember), or you can also create a link to that workdir too.
The player is off as default how can I send a start message to start the video. The play boolean true dont work. I need to go on the pi and push space or the play icon on the screen.
I need it to auto start everytime. Also after reboot...
here it works pretty fine. Can you share your flow and also your enviroment?
Keep in mind that in the newest versions of Chrome, the user has to acknowledge on the video before starting, if the video has audio(please check here), there is no way to by-pass this "feature". What you can do is to enable the "mute" flag
