Video Player Module, question for Demopad

Post by starwarsmike » Sun Oct 05, 2014 3:01 pm

Hi Demopad

Do you have any plans for a Video Player Module for Demopad, that would give access to NAS files for playback?

Thanks

Possibly, though typically users will use a 3rd party player hardware/software to achieve this, rather than DemoPad, eg XBMC / Plex

Hi

I appreciate there are 3rd party software, but having integration within a page project would be so much better, wouldn't need to come out/In of Demopad app.

The reason I ask is, my friend who uses iRule, (Iv'e never used it) says he bought a Video Module, which enables him to play any chosen video on his network.

fingers crossed!!

Thanks

Michael

Mike,
I have iRule, bought it before Demopad and have never used it since I switched to Demopad, believe me the user interface design is not on the same level as Demopad. It would frustrate you.
Don't know what Video module your friend is refering to, but iRule does not show any video module on their website, and I couldn't find any reference on their forum.

What is it you want to accomplish with Video??? Where do you want the video to play????

Basically a media player to play movies over network (NAS), In Demopad we could create a movie catalogue, showing each movie cover/background, like XBMC, setup each cover with command, SMB or URL, just need the functionality to play Vob files or other formats.

I am aware Demopad functionality is far superior than iRule.

So you want to play the movie on the IOS device from the NAS???
