The use of web browser resources in Pixera allows complete web pages such as Youtube or self-created web pages to be placed as a clip in the timeline and displayed via the Renderengine
This can be very advantageous for interactive installations to display the content dynamically over a pre-programmed webpage.
The following video explains this workflow. It also shows how it is possible to display the mouse in the render engine to interactively trigger buttons in a web page, for example.
NOTE:
Each server loads its own CEF instance independently. Because of this isolated behavior, true synchronization between multiple CEF instances is technically not possible. This cannot be solved via content mapping or perspectives either.
The only way to achieve consistent visual output across servers would be to abstract the content and distribute it as a single texture, e.g., via NDI.
While we can trigger simultaneous playback via JavaScript, this will not result in actual frame‑accurate sync.
