Hi cbsmail,
I have just tried the with Safari, Firefox and Chrome on my Mac Book.
The animation playing in the browser is always playing regardless if the browser is in focus or not.
At the moment in time I have a different browser open with an animation playing in the background, I can just see the window behind Pano2VR and typing this on top, I'll do a screen shot of this.
Cheers,
Hopki

Hi Hopki,
Appreciate the reply, focus may have been the incorrect term.
In Chrome and Firefox (confirmed on Windows and Android), if the user navigates to a new tab or minimises the browser whilst an animation is playing the audio continues to play in the background, but the visual animation pauses. On MS Edge it somewhat plays correctly regardless of tabs, however the same behaviour is witnessed if the browser is minimised.
Unfortunately when this happens it means the visuals are out of sync with the audio narration. To be honest I don't mind if both the audio and visuals are paused when not active, or both continue to play. It would be great if there was consistency. Thanks.
Kind regards,
Chris

Hi Chris,
I'll have a play and but in any case I'll write up a bug report.
Before I do can you confirm which version of Pano2VR you are using.
