Site rendering on Apple devices

85 Replies, 15012 Views

I disabled the flashplayer and left only the Video embedding:

Code:
<video controls="controls" preload="none" loop="loop" width="600" height="400">
      <source src="https://www.likera.com/forum/mybb/attachment.php?aid=33548" type="video/mp4">
</video>

Same problem.

The bottom line so far:

o- Stay away from Apple
o- Browser playback is mostly broken on iDevices (lots of complaints on the web)
o- To make a video playable on stupid Apple boxes, the following must be used:

Format: MP4
Video encoder: libx264 (h264)
Profile: Baseline
Level: 3.0 (for maximum compatibility)
Audio codec: AAC

Additional option: -movflags +faststart (for quick web-loading)

Ok, question???
Why is it that when I click onto a picture with my iPhone, I can’t zoom in on the picture without the picture jumping back to its orinigal size. And also, when I try to go to the next picture using (>😉 or (<😉, the new picture just layers over the old picture?
And don’t tell me that my iPhone sucks.

It's the same for Android and iOS. You have to use a "3-finger gesture": you pinch-zoom-in, then touch the screen with a 3d finger, remove the first two fingers (while still touching with the 3d), then remove the 3d finger. And yes, I figured it out by myself 😊

To be added to FAQ.

You can swipe to the left, right, or up or down, you do not have to use the >< buttons.

Ha Ha...
Very funny
Did it work for you? 😉
How to play WEBM and other video files on iPhones:

The consensus is you need "PlayerXtreme Media Player" (there is a free version) or "Free HD Video Converter Factory"

Apple simply refuses to add new video formats.
Just modified the first post in the thread.
Well this is new.

Seen this when not logged. It's a general FancyBox (image viewer plugin) error:

Code:
MyBBFancyBox.setup({
        clickToEnlarge: "Click to enlarge",
        CLOSE: "Close",
        NEXT: "Next",
        PREV: "Previous",
        ERROR: "The requested content cannot be loaded.<br/>Please try again later.",
        PLAY_START: "Start slideshow",
        PLAY_STOP: "Pause slideshow",
        FULL_SCREEN: "Full screen",
        THUMBS: "Thumbnails",
        DOWNLOAD: "Download",
        SHARE: "Share",
        ZOOM: "Zoom",
        MINIMIZE: "Minimize",
    }

Page reload usually helps (if logged in and cookies are allowed, of course)
