I have:

- Shared Google Calendar

- Airport Arrivals

pages on my HD222. The URL are added into the HTML5. How can I set an automatic refresh of these two sites? When adding them into the data feeds and clicking the validate button, it fails to validate

    Web pages can be reloaded with a Timer event that goes back to the HTML5 object.

    If you'd like, you could share your presentation file here.

    Thanks @theCSIgroup (long username you got there)

    Following your comment I changed my presentation type to Interactive and then I was able to create the time event. Now my HTML5 web galleries are updating regularly.

    Just in case someone else is wondering....

    Thanks for the tip.

    CSI group. How long did you set up the timer? Did you have to put a jpg image in first? I am having a hard time with 3 each hd222 pointing to a single menu website that changes daily sometimes hourly. It freezes the player and sometimes only shows the graphics fields and blanks on the text fields. It should be so simple. Could you upload the file? It would be a huge help. Thank you, Todd

    Todd,

    - switch a playlist to interactive mode

    - go to Media Library > events

    - drag and drop "Timeout" event to HTML5 object in playlist

    - select "Transition to new state", choose the same HTML5 state, specify timeout value in seconds (how often you want a page to be refreshed), click OK
