Chapter 3-16: Using GUI Features of the Image Editor

Media Player Widget

Overview:

The text field should contain the pathname to a media file (avi, mp3, mp4, etc). The media file must be located on the desktop where the APPX Client is running. For non Windows clients, you will need the VLC Video player installed on the desktop in order for this option to work. You can download the viewer from http://www.videolan.org/vlc.

Design Usage:

Use the Image Editor to add a text field to your image and resize it to be the size that you would like for your Media Player Widget. Then edit the GUI Attributes of the field and select "MEDIA PLAYER" as the control.

Runtime Usage:

At runtime, the specified video will automatically run. The bottom of the widget includes playback controls.
