HTML5 content freezing
« on: December 04, 2012, 06:36:10 PM »
Having a problem when I run more then 1 HTLM5 content on a player. Every time I add a weather radar to my player using html5 after a short time it freezes both html elements. I am running a display with a 5 minute long presentation. any one else having problems with this or have any suggestions on how to add a weather radar...

Intel core i3 3.30ghz, 2 gig ram and a GeForce gt430 w 1 gig. These are stand alone units that only run your player. I had the same problem with an older set of computers, thinking they were the problem I replaced them with these new units. I have IE installed as the browser. Would a different browser make a difference.

It seems like every time a add an HTML5 element that displays a weather radar in it I experience the freeze. My RSS feed still runs and the images work properly. The HTML elements are the only part being affected.

If I restart the computers they will run properly for a few hours and then experience the same problem.

Something else to add.

My timeline is 5 minutes long but runs 24 hours a day. Should I be making longer timelines?

Also reading some forums it seems like making multiple timelines to rotate between might also help. Any thoughts?

It could be related to the content...
If you show a different page, like CNN.com, all is well?

I have tried  multiple radars from different sites. They all make the display freeze after a couple hours.
