add video to shiny app

[Jerônimo Guasselli]

Can someone sujest me some code to add video to main panel, i tried iframe and video HTML tags, but it did not work well. I want to add a video tutorial about the app in the about tab.

Try an iframe:

<iframe width="640" height="375" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/e02LFmNysoM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

I have this in an Rmd file that is rendered in an app

Hello there is an example here: https://groups.google.com/d/topic/shiny-discuss/QjketNq6UII/discussion

Hello, both examples are great, but I used this example.

tabPanel("About", mainPanel(tags$video(src = "www.mp4", type = "video/mp4", autoplay = NA, controls = NA)))

However I just want to play when te user goes to the "About" tab, but when I start the app the video automaticaly starts.

How can I add some play button?

You could try this in ui.R:

tabPanel("About", mainPanel(uiOutput("video")))

and this in server.R:

output$video <- renderUI({

  tags$video(src = "www.mp4", type = "video/mp4", autoplay = NA, controls = NA)

})

Since the uiOutput("video") starts out hidden, Shiny won't send the video tag to the client until that tab is activated. I think. :)

Worked just fine, thank you very much.

Hi, I just want to know, is there any kind of mp4 that does not play on this function?

Because there is some videos that I cant make it play, because I made a tutorial as mp4, but it is not working, and with some other videos I used as an example to know if was working, it works just fine.

I just figured out, thanks.

Hey Jeronimo, can you let me know what was the problem that some of the mp4-videos played and some didn't. How did you solve the issue?
