"VFX Avi player"

[chezinut]

i use in my presets "VFX Avi player" from http://goebish.free.fr/vfx

Decoder find it as
{
"type": "AVIPlayer",
"filePath": "video_file.avi",
"enabled": false
}
actually element was enabled and there was much more settings :)

While this looks like an actual bug in the detection of the decoder, I doubt AVI videos will play in the browser. Of course, IE might be an exception—but keep in mind that Webvs works in Chrome only.

Apart from that I'm not sure how video could work in Webvs at all. It will not work locally, since JavaScript cannot access your local file system. Uploading a video to a server isn't exactly practicable.

Anyway, I suggest you commit a bug fix for the decoder. As for Webvs, video is one of the features that will likely not get implemented.

Hi,
I implemented Goebish's AVI player APE only minimally. There is really only enable and the rest of the settings aren't there yet. Fully implementing this ape is not a priority since so few presets use it and as Jan said there's little hope of it being actually implemented in webvs.
The wrong recognition of the enable state is actually a bug, I will look into this...

also, before the question comes up: texer images are added as base64 encoded strings

I can comment a bit on video in Webvs. It is technically quite simple to get videos into Webvs. Webgl lets you map html5 video elements or even video from the webcam (this'd be a fun thing to try) onto textures (http://stemkoski.github.io/Three.js/Video.html). So its basically a question of codec support in the browser and how we can retrieve the file resources. The video can be streamed from external url, but as @idleberg mentioned it is not quite practical and unless we come up with some really clever stuff i dont think js can handle reasonably big videos encoded as strings in json.
