Problem: There is a 2-6 second delay between when I touch the monitor and when it transfers to the next image/video. Those who are used to touchscreens expect a near instantaneous response and so get impatient when using my touchscreen, and those who are not used to touchscreens either get bored very quickly waiting, or assume it is broken and leave. I would like to fix that.
Project: My project is composed of around 40 images (1920x1280 resolution), and 7 videos. I use touch events to connect the slides. Each slide will have around 15 interactive 'buttons' on it (if too many interactive buttons is a problem, it is not my problem, as slides with only one button are slow as well).
Equipment: - HD810 box - HP Compaq L2105tm touchscreen - Firmware 3.5.77
How I have tried to fix it:
1) Suggestion: use faster loading image files. I used both .jpeg and .png image files to no avail.
2) Suggestion: use video files instead of image files. I used .mp4 files and they still have 2-3 second delays. Would .mpg files be better, and, if so, what encoder should I use? (All the ones I have looked at butcher the resolution).
3) Suggestion: Change from a VGA cable to an HDMI cable so as to avoid image re-scaling. This change was just as slow (and now the screen shakes a bit). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
