Are you looking to enhance your website with dynamic and engaging content? Our website widget is the perfect solution to add a touch of interactivity to your online platform.

In this guide, we'll walk you through the steps to integrate and configure our widget seamlessly.

General note: Websites will be displayed in a iframe on the media player.

Widget Installation

  1. Create a clip using the "Own website" widget in our CMS 
  2. Copy the URL from the website you want to show

Please ensure that you have pasted the URL correctly: https://www.domain.com or http://domain.com

Testing and Troubleshooting

  1. Preview the widget in a creation station to ensure it looks and behaves as expected.
  2. Check the widget's performance and loading times to ensure a smooth experience.

Please be aware that some websites might have a conflict with the widget due to the settings/ design of the website.

We can't guarantee that all websites can be shown with the Own website widget. 

Best media players to use for websites:

  • XMP-7500 
  • XMP-8552

Important Notes

Incompatibility with Browser or WebView Version:
Android 7.1 uses WebView to render web content within apps. The media players are not using the most recent Chrome version, this can cause a conflict with the website.

Responsive content

Media players need 1920 x 1080 input. Responsive design of a website doesn't always show correctly.

Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) Issues:
If your website interacts with external resources (like APIs) that are on different domains, CORS policies may prevent proper communication. Ensure that your server is configured to handle CORS requests correctly.

Content Loading and Timing:
If your website relies on external resources, slow loading or timing issues can disrupt the user experience. Optimize your website's content loading strategy.

Network Connectivity:
Poor or unstable internet connections on the media player can lead to loading issues. Check the network connectivity and consider using content caching for improved performance.

Security Policies:
Security headers, such as Content Security Policy (CSP) or X-Content-Type-Options, can affect how content is loaded and displayed. Make sure your website's security policies are properly configured.

If you encounter any issues during testing, refer to our support documentation or contact our customer support team for assistance.
