screenPerfect

screenPerfect serves paired client-control video via a NodeJS server installation to Chrome on desktop, and Android 4.1+ devices.

For actual frameperfect alignment via node and a wifi connection, check testbuffer.js; this is where all demo packages relating to timing are stored.

screenPerfect Gotchas

HTML5 Video

• screenPerfect accepts any video format.
• Chrome, as of November 2013, does not support .mp4 or h.264 video. It supports webM.
• Safari will play webm, but iOS devices will not. Not even in Chrome.
• iOS devices generally force play in iOS' video app.
• The poster attribute has extremely uneven support across browsers.

screenPerfect ToDo

• Add graceful fail by supporting both webm and h.264 video with link files for each.
• further support graceful fail by adding poster support.
