Small patch to Charles Mangin's awesome web page that displays 4AM's Apple II crack movies.

MARCHintoshLogo

NEW for Marchintosh 2023: Now also has a version with 4AM's Mac boot videos! #MARCHintosh

Charles' orgiginal was hard-coded to use the smaller Ogg video files. Ogg video doesn't work in Safari or in the Mac WebViewScreenSaver (https://github.com/liquidx/webviewscreensaver). This version will use MPEG4.

Note One: Browsers have changed, and thankfully autoplaying videos with sound (which this relies upon) are generally no longer supported. If you want to use a non-Safari browser, use the silent versions of the HTML. Otherwise, you'll probably just see a black screen.

Note Two: Due to sandboxing, loading the HTML in the screensaver using a local file:// URL will likely not work. If you put the HTML on any old static web server you'll have better luck. You can try these links straight to the HTML files in this repository if you don't want to host them yourself. For the screensaver, you almost certainly want the URLs that end with "_silent.html"

Make sure you enter URLs exactly, with no leading or trailing spaces. The Screen Saver isn't tolerant of whitespace!

compatible-boot-theater's Issues

Problem with multiple monitors

When running as a screen saver on multiple monitors there's some bug that keeps it from playing on both screens. I expect some kind of race condition for the cache or maybe a namespace issue.
