Green Layer/Hang/Load Issues observed with the iOS SDK #193

I found some issues when using the Google VR SDK.

  1. There is green layer on top of the GVRVideoView when loads high resolution videos. If would be very helpful if there are more specifications on the video assets for compatibility issues.

  2. High-resolution videos loads slowly. The VR view stops at different time points while playing and it looks like if the app is hanging.

  3. Video hangs occasionally within the first few seconds of play. The loaded video sometimes stops playing within the first few seconds and would only resume when a .play() signal is sent to the API.

  4. Cannot overlay another view on top of the GVRVideoView when the fullscreen mode is enabled. For example, if I would like to show a few UI components on top of the GVRVideoView, I cannot do so when the fullscreen mode is entered.

  5. Cannot hide info button. In one of the previous threads, there is a code segment that shows a hacky way to hide the info button. It would be helpful if the SDK has that option.

I am using version 1.10.1. Thanks.

The green issue doesnt seem apparent in version 1.0.1., some hanging though.

The info button is removal in version 1.10.0 and above.

You can add UI to the view if you instead make your own full screen view by just putting the GVR view inside another full screen view.
