Playing any type of video requires just one Scene Graph node class: Video.
For the most basic video playback, you only need to set the URL and StreamFormat field values on a ContentNode node, assign the ContentNode node to the content field of the Video node, then set the Video node control field value to play to start the video. For example:
videoContent = createObject("RoSGNode", "ContentNode")videoContent.url = "video_URI"videoContent.streamformat = "hls"m.video = m.top.findNode("video_node_ID")m.video.content = videoContentm.video.control = "play"
For more advanced video playback (for example, incorporating "trick play" DVD-like scene indexing functionality), there are fields in the Video node and the associated ContentNode node to provide this functionality.
