Is it possible to display a video in beas with the Ole Object

Phil Sparkes

Hi,

I've designed a screen in powerbuilder and would like to use an OLEObject to display an embedded video for the user. It works fine in preview in the IDE (screenshot attached) but in beas a border appears with no filename. Is it possible to display a video, and to change the filename at runtime with this control? Is there another way to do it?

    Hi Phil, 

    the beas framework don't support ole objects integrated in datawindow (or i didn't tried it before)
    It is possible to create an ole object with beas script and display it with overlapping.
    Ole Object is a very old technology. Better idea is to use the WEB object and display the Video with over this object. Beas use a chromium object.

    in open event you can initialize this, in resize event you can define the position, with setsource you can implement the HTML source

    Hi Martin, Thanks for the reply. I can't get it to work. WIth the code below, the browser displays but the video in the browser doesn't load or doesn't run. If I do exactly the same outside of beas it runs the video just fine.

    declare=ie=ue_ie
    ie.x=2500
    ie.y=600
    ie.width=1000
    ie.height=1000
    ie.navigate=C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\beas-Device Options.mp4

    Is there a limitation on what size of video, or what files it will load ?

    Ok cool, thanks. I also tried loading up a html page with the html5 video tag - it doesn't run the video either.

    declare=ie=ue_ie
    ie.x=2500
    ie.y=600
    ie.width=1000
    ie.height=1000
    ie.navigate=\\Win-a1c9fqifcln\b1_shr\beas software\Project\project\vision33\loadvideo.htm

    <video width="320" height="240" controls>
      <source src="C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\beas-Device Options.mp4" type="video/mp4">
    </video>

    Hi Phil Sparkes

    we checked this 

    destroy=ie
    declare=ie=ue_ie
    ie.x=200
    ie.y=600
    ie.width=2000
    ie.height=2000
    ie.visible=true
    ie.navigate=about:blank
    post=ie.setsource=<html><body><h1>My new Video</h1><video width='320' height='240' controls> <source src='https://www.w3schools.com/html/mov_bbb.mp4' type='video/mp4'>NOT SUPPORTED </video></body></html>

    the system display the player correct, but don't start the video. We will analyse this next time
    YouTube videos working fine.

    regards
    Martin
