Xibo

Multiple regions are all refreshed at the same time

Asked by Ryan Jen

Hello,
I am using Xibo 1.0.6 server with dotNet client. I modified default layout by creating three image regions and one video(wmv file) region.
The weird thing is that when every time the wmv file is finished, the whole layout (which means all other image regions) will be refreshed at the same time.

I will appreciate if there is any way to avoid this weird synchronizing problem. I want regions in the same layout will not be affected by each other.
Thank you very much.

It's because the video is the longest running region on the layout. When it completes, the client moves on to the next layout

As you only have one layout then the same layout is replayed.

Hi Alex,

I have one layout divided into two regions. In the upper region, it plays swf files of 15 seconds duration (20 swf files) in the lower region, it plays an RSS feed of 300 seconds duration (20x15=300), moving from right to left. When change occurs in the upper region of the content, the RSS feed stops moving for a little time, until the new content is displayed in the upper region. What can I do to fix this?

Thank you very much,

Lindomar

The windows client is single-threaded. It therefore can't do the two
jobs at once so it's not possible to prevent that pause.
