The Video Element allows you to add either a video file or a video stream from HLS, DASH, UDP or a Live TV Passthrough.

Note: If you wish to use a YouTube video, Twitch stream, or other publicly available video source, you would want to use the YouTube element or the External URL element.

Adding a Video Element

When you add a Video Element, a window opens, allowing you to select an item from your Media Manager, Pixabay, or Pexels, you can also upload a new image by dragging the file on your computer to the dialog box.

You select Cancel if this Video Element is going to be used to bring in Video Streams like HLS, DASH, UDP, or Live TV

If you select a video file, it will fill the space and begin playing. You can use the Gear Icon in the upper right to open the Edit options.

	Loop: Toggles if the video loops its playback. Purple is Loop On
	Volume: allows you to set the relative volume the video will play at.
	Autoplay: Toggles if the video will auto-play. Purple is Autoplay on and should be the setting for Signage Layouts
	Controls: Toggles whether the video will show controls at the bottom. Generally, you would want the controls visible when making an interactive layout for a kiosk and invisible otherwise. Purple indicates that controls are set to show on the screen.

IPTV, Live TV, and Video Streams

Korbyt supports the display of a separate video source in the signage system through the Video Element. With all these options, the video will not be visible in the CMS; instead, a blue screen displaying the area where the video will play is shown.

Live TV / HDMI At the Media Player

Live TV is the insertion of an HDMI video input into the signage display at the screen/media player.

This requires the Media Player to have an HDMI input, to which the local device (cable box, decoder, Blu-ray player, etc.) is connected.
