Hi Mark et al, Thanks for the replies, and apologies for the delay in responding (show date looms on one of the shows and learning songs has taken precedence over launching audio/video cleanly from my wiki). I have been playing around a bit more in firefox on the desktop and the indirect

I think what's happening is that AndTidWiki is using it's own internal base path, which is far away from your target path. Another thing to try is to change the base path. You can put in a tiddler tagged $:/tags/RawMarkup Save and reload. (Did I mention you should also have a backup, just

There are 3 macros here that relate to configurable image paths. They were derived from Tobia Bier's original work, but allow you to put different paths in tiddlers tagged as "Config" (I should have picked a different tag name) and then have that base bath applied to images, that are displayed

I'd love to see that Mark. I use the node version because I find it so much better to be able to look at and manipulate individual files. I upload/import the files the normal way into the tiddler directory then I have a script for when the server is restarted that moves files to their

My memory is kicking in. I realize now that I may never have actually used relative paths on AndTidWiki. I *suspect* hat it might work if you tried it on the real AndTidWiki directory, which is burried under something like Android/data/data/comantidwik/... The problem is that AndTidWiki

No, it doesn't show up in my plugin list either. I think it might be a macro that has aspirations to plugindom. If you look in the sidebar tabs > More > System then scroll down you should see a tiddler called plugin/TWaddle/richlinks/main and then several richlinks related tiddlers including

Hi Watt, Thanks for the reply, this looks interesting but... I seem to have trouble adding plugins. I drag and drop from the link in richlinks, and get a green bar at the top of the target tw5. I get an import tiddler pop-up and it appears to update ok. Save - refresh, but a review of plugins

Hi Mark, Thanks for the reply. "When you say "opens in an external window", is this some other app, or does it offer you a slate of apps to open it with?" This is a video tiddler. I get a separate window, almost like a pop-up that the video plays in. On completion, it drops back to the opened

This works for me on Android and desktop and does several other formats beside video which might be useful for your project. http://richlinks.tiddlyspot.com On android my filename looks something like this, but I think it works with relative paths too; <> Search the forum for 'richlinks'.

If you try your format or my format for the address on a desktop platform you'll probably find that it works. If it crashes on Android, it probably means that either AndTidWiki or the app it attempted to launch crashed, most likely due to a memory shortage. When you say "opens in an external

It's absolutely relevant, because Android poses some restrictions, especially starting at Android 4.4 Also, the AndTidWiki technology may not be able to serve up videos, and even it does it may choke on large files. This path: /storage/emulated/0/andtidwiki/... is an android path from and

You should be able to use relative paths rather than absolute paths, as long as the resource directories are below the TW directory. So possibly: src="./CalamityJane/DeadwoodStagevid.mp4 Might work. Then you should be able to copy the entire ShowWiki folder to some other platform and still
