Don't refresh repeat content on the frontend (Concerto #550) #38

Closed augustf closed 7 years ago

augustf commented 9 years ago

Per https://github.com/concerto/concerto/issues/550, content should not be re-loaded when it comes after itself in sequence.

Any progress on this one? We have some screens we'd like to only display a single web page (iframe)... the max 100s refresh is quite distracting.

mfrederickson commented 7 years ago

@smaddock is it fading in and out? I think you can change the two field transition settings to "replace" which would definitely make it much less noticable. https://github.com/concerto/concerto/wiki/Field-Configuration

smaddock commented 7 years ago

@mfrederickson Already done that... unfortunately the site we're framing has a slow, JS heavy dynamic load that refreshes each time.

mfrederickson commented 7 years ago

@smaddock this should be fixed when #74 gets merged. If you want to try it in the meantime, let me know how it works out for you.

mfrederickson commented 7 years ago

Currently, when a duplicate comes up, the system ignores it and waits the original content's duration before trying again. This change is not good when you have a single video (or audio) on a feed. So perhaps this feature should be enabled or disabled by a field parameter?

smaddock commented 7 years ago

@mfrederickson Sure... an iFrame or vid on loop doesn't have a duration.
