Folks: Two issues… #1. I've forever had difficulties in getting Auto Play / Rotate Once (or any choice) / Delay to work correctly—once the asset loads it immediately rotates, regardless of setting, speed setting does work. #2. Placing the uploaded asset (with an auto play / rotate once (speed .30, Delay 5.0) into an iFrame seems trumped by iFrame… the asset is motionless, does nothing, not a twitch.

Thoughts?

Here are the sample links

standalone index [Delay set at 5.0 (and many other numbered attempts), but immediately rotates, no delay]

same asset within an iFrame inside a layer slider (same settings as above, but remains motionless)

I have always been under the understanding that the delay really is for how long until it starts rotating AGAIN. I know that it doesn't read that way in the interface, but that is what it seems to do.

Wow… that NEVER occurred to me. I'll play with that. Have you worked with iFrames or web based sliders? I assume I may need some custom CSS to allow the performance designed into the VR asset.?

alright, if "Rotate-Once" is selected with a Delay time, and the initial rotation is immediate (as I've experienced), then there is no AGAIN, which renders the Delay time moot. I'd assume your referring to only "Ping-Pong" as "Rotate" is persistent.?

The only way I found to delay start of autorotation at start is with javascript. Have autorotation disabled at start. Call a javascript function with a timer which completes with enabling autorotation.
