Flow reset

12 replies [Last post]

Hi
When you view flow on HTML 5 on the iPhone, when you click on a video, if you are half way through watching it, the only way to go back to the flow view is to reload the page, that is how it is on the examples on this website, so I am assuming that's how it's supposed to be, is there any way to go back to image flow view midway through a video without reloading the page?
Thanks Rob

Do you have a link?

I have the same problem. Have a look at:

Works fine on both desktop and iPad, but on the iPad I can no longer switch video once a video is running.

Regards,
Rene

This might be an issue with the Flow plugin on the iPad in general.

Does the same happen here? - http://www.longtailvideo.com/addons/plugins/121/Flow

Yes, it happens there as well.

Yes, this is just an issue with the plugin+ipad in html5 mode.

Where is the source for this flow plugin coming from? We don't have to download anything right? it looks like you just put 'plugins': 'flow-2' and it just magically appears.

I need to get this working yesterday. Is this built into jwplayer?

So we can't fix flow for you, or ourselves, than? flow is the coolest looking one that lets a user see more videos and works in html5... all the other playlists plugins say that html5 isn't supported.

Now flow needs to be tweaked to work on the ipad, as there are many forum posts about it's broken functionality, especially as we saw with Youtube videos in an xml playlist.

Is this able to happen shortly?

I can reach out the developer of the plugin about it. It isn't authored by us.

Well, it seems to be fixed on your site:

while I can't get it to work here:

The flow playlist just doesn't appear on stop / pause / end.

Maybe it doesn't work with Youtube feeds?

You have any idea why your's is workin and mine not?

Well it seams to be a problem connected to using Youtube links because when I use my amazon S3 hosted video files it works like on your site.

Does anybody (Ethan the cat probably ;-)) know how to get it to work with youtube files?

Yes, the plugin was indeed updated recently.

Regarding YouTube specifically, that I do not know why, sorry.
