Quote from rocote on February 15, 2020, 11:13 pmIs it possible to use VisualNeo Web to play video on Facebook? It would be nice to control who can see it or not within VisualNeo Web. If anyone has a solution or an idea, I will appreciate very much hearing about it.
I wish to be able to open a Facebook video into a iFrame or Container.
Thanks!

Do you mean embedding a public video published in Facebook into a VisualNEO Web App? (easy)
Or embedding a VisualNEO Web app with a video into the Facebook timeline? (not sure if this is possible)Regards.

I always have this error: Unsupported video type or invalid file path
2 - Is it possible to do the same thing even if the Facebook video is not PUBLIC ex; Friends only etc...
3 - I did have success to do a local video application (6 videos for exemple) and compile the application as Standalone (.exe) without any problem. But when I try to run the application, this error always come up.
Runtime error 217 at 0046794C
I tried to run the application on two differents computers and the same error comes up again.

@rocote I don't know how you are doing the embed. Take a look at the attached sample using a IFrame object please.
2 - Is it possible to do the same thing even if the Facebook video is not PUBLIC ex; Friends only etc...
I don't see how. Those videos are protected by a Facebook privacy restriction policy.
Runtime error 217 at 0046794C
That's an Internet Explorer error. Hard to say what's happening.
Please consider using PWA (available on next release) instead of .exe files for distribution. Exe files (right now) use an embeded Internet Explorer instance (very old).Regards.

Quote from rocote on February 19, 2020, 4:43 amYou know, I don't use internet explorer at all.
I use Microsoft Edge and/or Google Chrome. I bought VisualNEO Web because you are advertising the software to be able to make .exe file or standalone file. I talk to you about the error 217 and you told me it was an old internet explorer error since ten years ago. You supply me with no solution except using PWA instead in the next version of VisualNEO Web.
I admit that I'm not such a good programmer, but I'm certainly not going to get better with software that doesn't work well. Even worse if I don't have solutions to the problems I face.
Now, what about PWA? This is not a solution to fix the VisualNEO Web compiler problem.
Lately, I have done with Xojo everything in a few days what I was trying to do with VisualNEO Web since two weeks. (see picture). I pass most of my time trying to find a solution for the compiler to make my application working. I was able to do the video application with VisualNEO Web but the standalone compiler stop me to be productive. After the application has been compile into an (.exe), it doesn't open at all.
Why with all the other softwares I tried, after compiling my application as standalone (.exe) the application was working very well. None of the VisualNeo line has a stable standalone compiler. Why?
I feel worried asking for help or saying something that I wish to see in the software later on or whatever. Again, this is my opinion. As a customer, I need something that is working.
Also, about the iFrame object, I was able to use it with any video (local) on my iMac. But like I told you, with public video on Facebook the error "This file format is not supported or can't find the path". The solution you supply me was the same programming technic I was using in my application. But why with the public Facebook video, the software refuse to display my videos? This I didn't find a solution so far.
I try different video file format (.mov) (.mp4) and none of them were working in Facebook.
Again, all my video locally were working good with iFrame but when I use them on Facebook (public) none of them were able to display in iFrame object or even inside a container.
I'm not talking about software that corrects my errors automatically, but I'm talking about a function of software that is supposed to do what it claims to do.
Thank you

Quote from luishp on February 19, 2020, 10:21 amHi @rocote,
I understand your frustration, but you should understand each tool has it's own strengths and weaknesses. Most of the problems you are facing not come from VisualNEO Web itself but from the technology it relies on. Although certainly you can compile to .exe, that compilation (yet) will wrap an Internet Explorer instance (similar for mobile compilation and PhoneGap hybrid apps).
In my humble opinion you expect VisualNEO Web to behave as VisualNEO Win, being both very different technologies.
VisualNEO Win (and XOJO) produce native apps while VisualNEO Web produces WebApps (therefore the "Web" suffix). Please take a look to this post to undertand why I insist so much about PWA's:https://love2dev.com/pwa/progressive-web-app-vs-native/
Anyway, please share an example reproducing the problem you are facing so I can take a look, understand whats happening and see if there is any possible solution.
Thank you!

Quote from rocote on February 20, 2020, 12:45 amHello Luis and thank you for your answer.
Like I said, VisualNEO Web allows me to create my application but once it compiles, it doesn't work.
I went to see the link you left me about PWA and I wonder how it will work.
I understand that there are no other programming languages to learn. But will it still be necessary to compile the application? How can we distribute it?
I understand that PWA is the best of both worlds (Web and native Application). I just can't wait to see how it all ends.
All the same, what I heard from PWA seems a good way towards the evolution of programming.
Anyway, if we can get rid of the compiler problem and get a better result, that's all I ask. To be able to operate as quickly as possible with interesting results.
Another situation that I face is that my application, once compiled, gives a very large file because of my videos. I am using Adobe Media Encoder to reduce the size of my files. It helps a lot. As far as audio is concerned, I use .mp3 format instead of .wav. It also helps a lot.
If you have another extra solution to offer me, (lowering the size of an application) I would be happy to hear about it.
Thank you and good continuity

https://visualneo.com/forum/topic/coming-soon-compile-as-pwa-progressive-web-appThere you will find the first PWA made with VisualNEO Web. You can install it directly from the web and it will work even offline.
About videos, I always use a Vimeo Plus account to host my videos (no Vimeo logo and domain protection).Best regards.
