Hello,

we are using SAP ME 15.4 and are displaying Work Instructions - is it possible to display Videos as WorkInstructions?

right now we only get it to work with pictures (JPG,JPEG,PNG,PDF,VDS,VDSL,GIF)

With videos we are getting the error (unsupported formats), tested with .mov and .avi

Thanks

Reinhard

OK, got some update. It worked in earlier releases which used ActiveX. When it got discontinued by browsers and SAP ME switched to HTML5, the viewer has not been extended to cover video files. So, this feature is not available at the moment.

Hello Sergiy,

thank you for your answer! SAP is refering to SAP Note 11 regarding Enhancement Requests, but you can't make any Requests at Customer Influence for SAP ME. so that's bad

Actually it depends, meaning it is negotiable. If it is critical for you, then you should get in touch with SAP ME Mgmt team, directly or via SAP ME Consultants. If you appear to be persuasive enough, it might happen 😉

Hello Sergiy,

thanks for your answer - i've tested it with quicktime (.mov) but get back an error with "unsupported file"

Do you have any idea or should i open an official ticket at sap?

Yes. You're right. System is trying to expect only specified formats : JPG,JPEG,PNG,PDF,VDS,VDSL .

I tried with Quicktime movie (.MOV) format, i'm also getting same error.

so, its better to open a SAP ticket on this case and also please update the resolution once you received a feedback from SAP!
