local streaming via intranetwebsite to android tablets

Post by jojoe5731 »

I would like to stream product videos on android tablets via local lan.
there is a laravel website where the products are shown, but streaming the mp4 files ist very slow.
the streaming via the ums player works fine on the tablets

now i would like to integrate the videos to my local website.

but I can't find the correct link to the video ids in the ums player site?

If you have a local website on your intranet then you can just link the video locations in the webpage, you do not need to use UMS as a server as your web server can do this.
Just use UMS to share the folder those videos are located to have them available on the tablets too.

Also the IDs generated for the web player are dynamic so there is no guarantee they will be the same day to day, so you should not use any links taken from there.

If you are doing this for a store then you may want something specifically for this that can sync the videos over many displays. I saw a video on LTT where they did something like this.
