Ui control not work when showing video

[funhall]

Everytime a start this video it only show first time on the screen on the HDMI output. After first time it only shows when i open a new dasbord.
I hope there is a solution for this. Ask if you need more information.
Tanks in advance

I have made a little video to show the problem

Your video link (in the inject node) didn't work for me (nothing happens in dashboard, Forbidden Error 403 when testing with browser).

But with another one I tried, everything works just fine.

Right clicking on video brings up controls and I can play, pause, scroll through the movie, leave the tab and return starts the movie again, etc.

So far no issues that I have found... but I went a bit further and have multi videos running. Fun, if hard on the ears listening to all four audio tracks

[funhall]

Are you using rpi and hdmi to a screen??

[funhall]

Because the video is on My google cloud. Maybe that’s why I’d don’t work.
Are you usin rip with tv scene on hdmi??

[Gunner]

I was just testing your exported flow on my dashboard (on my PC) but my Node-Red is running on my RPi3, but not connected to any HDMI. I use VNC.

Connecting my RPi3 to a screen would not make any difference as the nodes are feeding the dashboard (unless I run the dashboard also on the RPi's browser, but then that may just overload the poor thing )

[funhall]

Have you seen the video.
Are you seeing it in browser like I am on the video?

[Gunner]

OK, I went through your video clip yet again... not the best way of describing the issue but I now see you seem to be trying to display the same clip from the same source node to multiple "dashboard users".

I was able to do that, at least with my posted example... using separate browser windows, seperate PCs and even the RPi browser, just a bit slowly there.

However, I did find it better to have a separate node for the URL and include an inject or "start" button for the dashboard for "individual user" control of starting the videos in their browsers.

[funhall]

Finally I got it to show the video.
Thanks a lot.
But how do we control the volume?
Do you have any idea of that???

[Gunner]

@funhall

But how do we control the volume?
Do you have any idea of that???

Programmatically... no idea if even possible via NR.

But manually, via the right-click controls
