You might be curious how to pause video.js player when user switches browser's TAB and resume playback when user's back to your website page. This is what you can find on most of our website demo and examples page.

This is not complicated task using document "visibilitychange" event through javascript.

Certainly many of you have seen Banner Ad centered over video player when you pause playback. This is a simple but effective technique to increase Ads revenue. Unfortunately, such solution cannot be set through player or plugin code. Banner Ad is usually generated by Ad Company on the fly through javascript or iframe object and shows once website HTML interpreted by the browser. So the Ad Banner code must be a part of HTML, not generated by a player.

Still, it is possible to interact with player events and manipulate independent HTML content in any way you want, including Advertising Banner display.
