Detecting video buffering.

  • I'm having some difficulty triggering an event when a video hangs due to buffering. In the past I've relied on the onvideopaused event being triggered but that doesn't seem to happen any more (not sure if that's a change to the web browser or krpano but I get the same results in Safari on iOs and Chrome using the flash player).

    As a work around I tried checking the videoplayer's iswaiting variable. However this returns false even when the video hangs for minutes at a time. Does anyone have any thoughts on a fix?

    Here's the panorama I've been using to test this:

    And here is the xml:

    Thanks!

  • Hi,

    it depends on the browser if there the video will be paused on buffering - I'm not fully sure yet, but I think the last time I've checked this only Firefox was doing this...

    But I will look into that topic again of course.

    Best regards,
    Klaus
