DisplayVideo
What is it?
The DisplayVideo node simply displays video content in your workflow.
When would I use it?
Use the DisplayVideo node when:
- You need to display video results or information in your workflow
- You want to show video output from previous processing steps
- You need a placeholder for video content that will be updated during workflow execution
- You want to create readable labels or descriptions within your workflow
- You need to visualize video data at specific points in your process
How to use it
Basic Setup
- Add a DisplayVideo node to your workflow
- Set the initial video value if desired
- Connect inputs to the video parameter or manually select a video
- Connect the video output to other nodes that require video input
Parameters
- video: The video content to display (supports VideoArtifact and VideoUrlArtifact)
Outputs
- video: The same video content, available as output to connect to other nodes
Example
Imagine you're building a workflow that processes and displays video information:
- Add a DisplayVideo node to your workflow
- Connect the output from a LoadVideo node to the DisplayVideo node's video parameter
- When the workflow runs, the video content will be displayed in the node
Important Notes
- The DisplayVideo node is for visualization and doesn't modify the video content
- The node passes through video exactly as received, without any processing or formatting
- Supports common video formats (mp4, avi, mov, etc.)
- The video player controls allow you to play, pause, and scrub through the video
Common Issues
- No Video Showing: Make sure you've properly connected a video source to this node
- Video Won't Play: Check that your video file is in a supported format and not corrupted
