By re-sizing the height and width in the code we provide, you can re-size the player to fit your page design as you wish. The player is also "Responsive" which means that if your web site is responsive designed and re-sizes to fit different screen sizes, then the player will resize too. Mouse over the live picture to bring up the pause, play and volume controls plus the full screen icon in the top right corner. Clicking in the live picture will pause or re-start the feed too. On the "Pro" account we can even put your site name on the players control bar for you.
Flash Player - Not Mobile Compatible.
Flash Player
This player must have Adobe Flash installed to operate. Some browsers and operating systems are starting to turn away from Flash in favour of HTML5, but many systems still embrace Flash too. The browsers in most Smart TV's are not HTML5 compatible but already have Flash installed when you buy them so if your intending to set up a display system using Smart TV's and other machines that are running Flash then this player can be used to great effect.
Although not so cross browser compatible and not compatible with mobile devices at all, for a Flash delivery system it is ideal an be used with the "Time Line" feature that is only compatible with Flash players. This allows you to use a slider in the player to move backwards and then forwards to real time again for up to 720 minutes (12 hours) and this is only available with the dedicated Flash player.
So if you want the most compatibility across all browsers and operating systems with the minmum of cross browser issues you should go for the HTML5 player. If you want a Flash delivery system with the instant time shift playback feature then the Flash only player would be the choice. You can also use your own 3rd party player if you prefer and we will provide you with the string details you need for the feed URL to input to your player code on request - although we cant provide technical support for other 3rd party players of course, for this you would need to contact the players technical support section.
If you need your stream to be broadcast in a particular format for a specific use e.g. the old Windows Media format, MPEG2-TS, or MS Smooth Streaming formats then just let us know and we will adjust the stream for you.
