Okay, I understand the issue. Based on the code and the problem description, the most likely reason videos are not playing in Electron while working in the browser is related to **protocol handling and potentially mixed content issues within Electron's security context.**
Even though `webSecurity: false` is set in your `main.js`, Electron might still be more strict about certain types of content, especially when dealing with different protocols (like a secure HTTPS page trying to load HTTP video content, or issues with file protocols if videos are local).
Here's a breakdown of potential problems and a solution focused on ensuring video URLs are correctly handled in Electron, without changing the UI structure of your React component:
**Likely Cause:**
1. **Insecure Content (Mixed Content) in HTTPS context:** If your Electron app is served over `http://localhost:3000` during development or as a `file://` protocol in production, and your video URLs are `http://` (non-secure), Electron might be blocking these as mixed content, especially if the main application context is considered secure (even if `webSecurity: false` is intended to relax these restrictions, it doesn't always fully disable all security checks related to mixed content).
2. **Protocol Mismatch:** Electron's handling of different protocols (HTTP, HTTPS, file://, etc.) for video resources might be more sensitive than a regular browser.
**Solution:**
The most robust solution, without changing your UI code significantly, is to **ensure that your video URLs are using `https://` protocol if your application context is also considered secure (HTTPS or file:// in production).**
If your video server supports HTTPS, switch all your video URLs to use `https://`. If it only supports HTTP, you might need to configure your video server to support HTTPS or consider using a reverse proxy to serve the HTTP content over HTTPS for your Electron app.
**Updated Code (with a focus on ensuring HTTPS video URLs - you'll need to adapt this based on your actual video URL structure):**

**Key Change:**
* **Force HTTPS in `fetchCameraData`:**
```javascript
const secureRecordedVideo = recordedVideo.map(video => ({
...video,
video_url: video.video_url ? video.video_url.replace(/^http:\/\//i, 'https://') : video.video_url // Force HTTPS
}));
```
This line is added within the `fetchCameraData` function. It iterates through the `recordedVideo` array and, for each video object, it checks if `video_url` exists. If it does, it replaces any `http://` at the beginning of the URL with `https://`. This ensures that the video URLs used by the `<video>` element are always HTTPS if possible.
**Important Considerations and Debugging Steps:**
1. **Verify Video Server HTTPS Support:** Ensure your video server actually supports HTTPS. If it doesn't, forcing `https://` will break video loading. In that case, you'll need to either:
* **Enable HTTPS on your video server:** This is the best long-term solution.
* **Use a Reverse Proxy:** Set up a reverse proxy (like Nginx or Apache) in front of your video server to handle HTTPS and proxy requests to your HTTP video server. This allows you to serve HTTPS content to your Electron app even if the backend is HTTP.
* **Electron Configuration (Less Secure):** As a last resort (and less secure option), you might explore Electron's `app.commandLine.appendSwitch('ignore-certificate-errors')` or Content Security Policy (CSP) settings, but these are generally not recommended for production applications as they weaken security.
2. **Electron DevTools for Debugging:**
* **Open DevTools in Electron:** In your `main.js`, `mainWindow.webContents.openDevTools();` is already enabled, which is good.
* **Console Tab:** Check the console for any errors related to video loading, mixed content, or network requests.
* **Network Tab:** Inspect the network requests when you try to play a video. Look at the status codes, headers, and error messages for the video requests. This will tell you if the video URLs are being requested correctly and if there are any server-side issues or protocol problems.
* **Security Tab:** Electron's DevTools has a "Security" tab. Check if it reports any mixed content issues or certificate errors.
3. **Test with a Simple HTTPS Video URL:** To isolate the problem, try replacing your dynamic video URLs temporarily with a known working HTTPS video URL (you can find sample HTTPS video URLs online). If a simple HTTPS URL works in Electron, it strongly suggests the issue is with your original video URLs or protocol handling.
4. **Check `main.js` Certificate Verification:** Your `main.js` has certificate verification logic for `192.168.1.80`. If your video server is on a different domain or IP and uses HTTPS, ensure that the certificate is valid and trusted by Electron. If you are using self-signed certificates, you might need to adjust your certificate verification in `main.js` or consider using properly signed certificates. However, for initial debugging, you can temporarily comment out the `setCertificateVerifyProc` block to see if certificate issues are the cause.
**Title for your issue:**

Electron Video Playback Issue - Resolve Protocol or Mixed Content Problem
```
By focusing on ensuring HTTPS video URLs and using Electron's DevTools for debugging, you should be able to pinpoint and resolve the video playback issue in your Electron application without making significant UI changes to your React component. Remember to verify HTTPS support on your video server and adjust your approach accordingly.
