Introduction:

This wiki page explains the design changes to integrate content-player in mobile(with ionic 4 changes)

Issue ID:-  SB-14688 - Getting issue details... STATUS

Background: 

Mobile code is updating the code to Ionic 4. With this update, file system can't accessible directly while playing the content in content-player. This is causing image broken for images, audio,  PDF & video.

Problem Statement:

  1. How to access assets or files in content-player without using file system path?

Impacted ares:

  1. Question-set
  2. EMLC content assests Images, Audios & Video.
  3. PDF
  4. Video(Mp4 or webm)
  5. HTML

Solution 1: 

Removing Cordova checks & remove pre-fixing  "file://" to the asses/file path while playing in mobile.

Solution 2: 

Use window.parent.Ionic.WebView.convertFileSrc(url);

main.js

window.getLocalPath(path) {
	 window.Ionic.WebView.convertFileSrc(path);
}

Replace all the place where-ever we are referring "file://" by calling above function.
