If you watch this transition between two nodes you'll see the second pano has a video patch (not the first with the big green screen).

Unfortunately, the patch is not being transitioned. Is this a bug? Is there way to defer the load of the video until the transition is finished so I can at least include the first frame of the video in the pano?

Hi,
The pinned/embedded video is not part of the panorama so will not be included in the transition.
However, you can add a timer that can hide the pinned/embedded video and then fade it in after the node has changed.

Please see the attached project.
As long as all the pinned/embedded videos have the ID Element01, Element02, etc, the project will work as it is using a Regular Expression with the WildCard *, So it's looking for the word Element.

So how does this work?
The timer is set to manual so has no Activate or Deactivate state.
It has the action Before Node Change Set Value to 1 to self, so the timer starts so it is Active.
When Active the next action Hides all media elements.
After one second it is Deactivated which then shows all the media elements.

Regards,

Ok. Cool. So if my pano has the first frame within it I should be ok to show the media after a second. The autoplay will still work?

Thanks, Lee.

Hi Lee,
Don't forget the browser media policy, you have to first click in the panorama before media with sound will start to play.
But other than that it's all working as in the example project.
