Control the playlist programmatically




Playlist developed and designed by Nuevodevel.com features several public functions that allow you to manage playlist media items programmatically via javascript. You can navigate between media items (next or previous), start playback from the first index, or jump to the last. You can append a new media item to the end of the playlist, insert it before or after the existing item index, remove a playlist item, or even replace the existing playlist with a new one.

Playlist media item definition

There are many ways to define playlist media. The minimum required information is the media source(s) url. However, you should also include the thumb image, media title, and duration at a minimum, e.g.
Code snippet
var mediaItem = {src://www.domain.com/video.mp4, type:"video/mp4", thumb: //www.domain.com/thumb.jpg", title:"media title", duration: "03:20"}
Of course the media source can be also "m3u8" or "mpd" playlist URL and appropriate media type. Can be also a list of multiple mp4 media files, with different resolution, e.g.
Code snippet
var mediaItem={
sources:[
{ src:"//www.domain.com/video_720.mp4",type:"video/mp4",label:"720p",res:"720"},
{ src:"//www.domain.com/video_360.mp4",type:"video/mp4",label:"360p",res:"360",default:1},
{ src:"//www.domain.com/video_240.mp4",type:"video/mp4",label:"240p",res:"240"}
],
thumb:"www.domain.com/thumb.jpg",,title:'media title',duration:"03:20" }
You can include even more information for a media item, like the poster image, subtitle tracks, chapters track, media title, and description, e.g.
Code snippet
var mediaItem = {
src://www.domain.com/video.m3u8, type:"application/x-mpegURL",
tracks:[
{ kind:"captions",src:"//domain.com/en.vtt",srclang:"en",label:"English" },
{ kind:"captions",src:"//domain.com/de.vtt",srclang:"de",label:"Deutsch" },
{ kind:"chapters",src:"//domain.com/chapters.vtt",srclang:"en" }
],
thumb: //www.domain.com/thumb.jpg",
title:"media title",
duration: "03:20",
poster: "//domain.com/poster.jpg",
metaDescription: "media description"
}
Single track can be defined as follow:
Code snippet
track:{ kind:"chapters",src:"//domain.com/chapters.vtt",srclang:"en" }
