Hi there,

does anyone know if there is a way to play sound of a pinned video on pop out only?

So if the video is in "pinned mode" there is no sound, but the video plays. And only if I click it and it pops out, there is sound?

Thanks in advance and have a nice day,

Hi moxben,
Set the pined video loop to -1, this prevents starting of the video when you start interacting with the panorama.
Then give the video its popout action.

What will happen is the video will not play until you click on it showing the preview image, when it pops out it will start to play.
On the second click, the video will return back and be stopped.

We are looking at more functionality with this in the next major release (V7) but no dates available yet for relese.

Hi Martin,

thanks for your fast reply! That's not exactly what our client wants us to deliver, but i think he will be okay with a workaround.

We will implement 2 videos, one muted as a preview, and another one hosted on YouTube as a pop out opened via Hotspot on the video.

Am looking forward to updates for new Version 7! 🙌

All the best,
moxben
