Broken image media tiles in Android
Referring to following topic though my post is only applicable to Android Chrome and Fully Kiosk browsers (both using android system webview version 111.0.5563.58) https://support.actiontiles.com/communities/12/topics/9592-images-on-media-tiles-are-not-loading-on-google-chrome-browser
It seems this problem started happening after the last android update (Samsung Tab A).
It seems http media tiles are no longer accepted in actiontiles. The (local network) http URLs display correctly if requested directly from the browsers, but seems to fail (broken link) when using actiontiles.
Is there a workaround for this? My ipcams unfortunately don't provide https interface :(.
The "Mixed Content Mode" switch in Fully Kiosk doesn't seem to help (this was also the recommendation from the Fully Support.
Any ideas welcome, I'd prefer to avoid having to set up an https reverse proxy.

I had the same problem. see my related post:

Thanks for getting back. I looked for AT app but didn't find it in the play store. That wouldn't truly solve my problem though as i use fully with motion activated screen.
I found the solution for fully kiosk browser which is system WebView based. The auto-update for Android system WebView was the problem as version 1111 doesn't allow for mixed content. The solution is uninstall the update, that reverts to an old version that usually works. It's possible to install a 110 version from an APK that you can find on uptodown for example.
This worked for me - just remember to disable the auto-update for system WebView in play store to avoid having to start over 🙄.

thanks for the info. I see that I am at Webview 111. The Samsung Tab A that I use is the only Andoid device I have. How do I roll back to the prior version of Webview?
uninstall system WebView in the play store. That will revert to an old version. If you want you can update to more recent version by downloading a 110 APK from uptodown for example.
that worked ... thanks!
