Are there any ways to fiddle with the performance in EO? When it comes to lower spec hardware that generally struggles with playing back web content, I was curious if there are any EO or Chromium flags that can be changed to help improve playback, even if it's a trade off of sorts.

So far we've tried various things with mixing and matching content types, and toggling DisableGPU in the engine settings.

Thanks!

Hi,

If you are talking about video playing back, one of the most important things is to check whether you have enabled proprietary video/audio codecs as they are disabled by default:

We do have that call as well in our implementation.

Code: C#
EO.WebEngine.Engine.Default.Options.AllowProprietaryMediaFormats();


In this case we're using a simple HTML page for use as a display, which has a video embedded and some text overlaid on top of that. That said, the machine being used is low-spec, so this is mostly a shot in the dark just to see if there are any less commonly used options that might be available to tune the browser.

Thanks

I see. There isn't much else you can do --- the browser engine is extremely complex and it is already highly optimized. So there really isn't anything for you to fine tune with.
