roimagewidget etc rohtmlwidget graphics cannot be paused() and resumed() rohtmlwidget migration tips the chromium 87 to 120 upgrade is designed to be as transparent as possible for docid\ xljq5 yhdma2ssmpzimtk users however, you may need to make the following changes to your application code new trusted iframes enabled flag in security params to enhance security iframes are now denied access to brightscript javascript objects and node js by default the following example shows how to set this new parameter while keeping code backwards compatible expand for code example r = createobject("rorectangle”,0,0,1920,1080) config = { brightsign js objects enabled true inspector server { port 2999 } security params { trusted iframes enabled true } url "file ///index html" } ' create html widget h = createobject("rohtmlwidget",r,config) if h = invalid then ‘ backwards compatibility remove the trusted iframes enabled flag and create the object again config security params delete("trusted iframes enabled") h = createobject("rohtmlwidget",r,config) end if brightscript javascript objects resources several of the brightscript objects have a close method that will shut down the instance to prevent it from further consuming resources if this method is not called, garbage collection determines when the instance will be destroyed from this release onwards all brightscript javascript object have a close method and you should modify your application code to call this the following example shows how to call the new close method in bsmessageport and keep backwards compatiblity expand for code example messageport = new bsmessageport(); … if (typeof messageport close === "function") messageport close(); messageport = null; the timing of rohtmlwidget initialization has changed in chromium 120 compared to chromium 87 this affects how setuserdata and mapfilesfromassetpool behave when using constructor properties expand for additional information and code examples using setuserdata with constructor properties when creating an rohtmlwidget and setting user data after construction using setuserdata, the load started event may not include the user data due to timing changes however, the load finished event will to ensure all events include the user data, a new user data parameter has been added to the constructor properties example (backwards compatible) browserconfig = { &#x9;port msgport, &#x9;javascript enabled true, &#x9;security params { &#x9; websecurity false, &#x9; insecure https enabled false &#x9;}, &#x9;brightsign js objects enabled true, &#x9;nodejs enabled false, &#x9;storage path "/ /browsereventstest browserstorage", &#x9;url "file / /index html", &#x9;user data "example string user data" } browser = createobject("rohtmlwidget", rect, browserconfig) if browser = invalid then &#x9;browserconfig delete("user data") &#x9;browser = createobject("rohtmlwidget", rect, browserconfig) &#x9;browser setuserdata("example string user data") end if browser show() using mapfilesfromassetpool with constructor properties similarly, when calling mapfilesfromassetpool after constructing an rohtmlwidget, the mapping may not take effect before the page loads if the url points to content in the asset pool to avoid this issue, use the existing assets field in the constructor properties instead of calling mapfilesfromassetpool after construction 9 1 52 beta (june 18, 2025) this beta release supports all brightsign series 3, 4, 5, 6 (xs156) and lguv5n players this release enables partners to evaluate

changes the behaviour of the audio volume curve on series 4 players will be altered in the general availability release to align with that currently used on series 5 and 6 players series 4 has
