It is difficult to support Facebook Live Streams. Under the hood, we are using livestreamer, so this software does not yet support Facebook live.

Here is the feature request for livestreamer:

https://github.com/chrippa/livestreamer/issues/1259

If they add it, we will update and it will be supported as well.

The duration of the black gap is not entirely under our control right now. Your request is reasonable though.

We are planning a major internal change to the Player’s software that will allow us finer control of the playback procedure. I will leave this request open so that I can update it if we get any update from the dev team if it is feasible or not.

Sounds reasonable, but it is difficult to implement this feature now. Uploaded zip packages are delivered directly to our cloud storage, not going through the application server. We would have to extract the JSON UI Schema file from the package. And this would also have other workflow issues (what happens if it is broken, etc).

I am leaving this feature here to see what traction it gets from other users.

Right now, the ticker is generated via a Python drawing library and the images are scrolled using the GPU. We plan to change this to HTML-based drawing of the ticker. We could then add an option for providing custom CSS styling for the text. I guess this should work fine for you.

Showing Playlist-level and item-level progress could be useful. Although not a high-priority, we will be adding this.

We are also adding native PDF support shortly, so this will be beneficial in case of text content.

This feature request has several implications.

First of all, it has little to do with CEC. The same request could be asking for USB IR remotes (which are internally handled by Linux as keyboard presses).

Right now, our playback engine is fully automated. This means that, you cannot affect the playback status of a playlist (move forward, backwards, etc). But, we plan to refactor the Player shortly to allow for different Playlist management.

So, while this is not a core-feature to add, it will probably be possible to add it via a Custom Widget. So, we will leave it here to check it out when the time comes.

One way to do this would be to use the Richtext Widget and paste your HTML. Right now, it is not so easy to do, but eventually it will be. Also, we do plan to provide some templates for fixed layouts (HTML templates) which you will be able to edit within the Widget. One of them could be a scheduling template.

There is also this idea: http://support.yodeck.com/forums/301815-general/suggestions/13087137-calendar-integration-ical-and-google-calendar-etc

Perhaps this is more close to the scheduling concept? Waiting for your feedback to dig in.

You can change to “Folder View” and massively change duration for all your slides.

But yes, this could be useful as an option for each User.

We are planning to provide a status page soon that will include a status reports on all service components and cloud vendors that we are using.

Indeed, provide metadata for Media would be really useful. Besides video duration, it would be really useful to also know video resolution, FPS, download size, average bitrate, etc.

Our encoding backend has been modified to provide all of this information to the Yodeck Portal. So, this will be provided soon.

It would be really interesting to provide this feature. We will look into it and let you know.
