Xibo

Is there a webpage refresh interval?

Asked by Chris DG

Is there a default interval where webpages displayed are refreshed? I currently have an internal website being displayed but it doesn't seem to be updating on the xibo client until I close it and reopen it. I've left it for 16 hours so far with a client update interval of every minute (testing at the moment). If this type of feature is not available and think it would be a great addition to have. Thanks.

Just a sidenote here. This software is amazing. I can't believe something as great as this is open source. Great work.

I have just come across a previous question with the following information:

There is a known bug in the 1.0 Series of Xibo where the Xibo Client will not refresh its content if there is only 1 item per region scheduled when there is only one layout in the schedule.

If there is more than only layout in the rotation it is not a problem. It is also not a problem if there is one layout, but that layout has 2 or more items in each of its regions.

It is very similar to this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xibo/+bug/346260

As you can see we don't plan on fixing this for the .NET client in 1.0. It will be fixed in the Python client of 1.1+

Cheers
Dan

So I have included blank text at the end of the playlist for a couple of regions. I'll see how this works out and let you guys know.
