I am working on a personal YouTube video player project and am looking at cookpete's react-player. Here is the link to the file I am referencing: https://github.com/cookpete/react-player/blob/master/src/demo/App.js.
Here's the actual player as well: https://cookpete.com/react-player/.
I'm trying to figure out how to render the playback rate on the page. cookpete's includes three buttons (1x, 1.5x, 2x) that changes the playback rate displayed, but if you use a YouTube link as the URL and change the speed with the built-in YouTube bar, the speed rendered doesn't change.
Would it be possible to render the current playback rate on the page that updates with the built-in bar? I believe there a function in the YouTube iFrame API (player.getPlaybackRate()), but since I am not using iFrame, how would I integrate this (maybe event.target.getPlaybackRate())? I've also seen some things about React refs but not sure how I'd use here.
Thank you for your time. I am new to React/API calls, so any help is greatly appreciated.

How can I create a fast video consumption feature like Instagram Reels, I have created a simple video player with the help of react-native-video but after every video, it takes time to load that video.
How can I do something like prefetch the video before displaying that video? Also, it should take care of the user's mobile data consumption.
Is there any way to implement this feature in react native?
You can use the mobile storage to store the next videos into the queue.
I have a web page that consist a video and a label that shows a series of data about certain parts of the video. for example while the video is played, in 10'th and 18'th second of the video , the label must be updated automatically. i can not use a separate timer because some parameters such as slow internet connection can make synchronization. Is there any way/ any component that can solve this issue?
I have a site where I need to show two different videos on it and I need to be able to do some actions with the videogular API.
The thing is that when I share the $API from the view to the controller using vgPlayerReady($API) the method I call to one video is applied in both! For example I want to mute one video but when I call setVolume() with the API returned, both videos get muted.
Is this a known issue?
Is there other way to mute just one video?
The workaround I found to fix this was to setVolume(0) when the video that I want to be muted is ready to be played, and setVolume(1) when the video I want with volume is ready to be played.
The volume property didn't work for me.
In my Angular app, I want to use a youtube player to play videos, and then add custom external buttons to control playback. I need a directive that can control all aspects of the video, including seek and progress. The most complete directive I have found is youtube-player-embed, but I don't see any options for seek and progress. Is this possible to do?
According to the Youtube API, it is indeed possible to seek and get the player progress. Since the directive youtube-player-embed is just a wrapper over the youtube video player object, then you should be able to use the exact same functions calls to control it.
In the page for advanced examples for youtube-player-embed you can see how they built a player with custom controls, in this case only Play and Pause, but it should be trivial to follow that example and add a Seek button as well.
Good luck!
Some questions for playing youtube videos in webBrowser component.
I played youtube video in webBrowser component. But it keeps playing when the form is backed as well. It only stops playing when the app is removed. I tried webBrowser.stop() and webBrowser.destroy() method etc in the back command but with no success.
String getVideoUrl = "https://www.youtube.com/embed/" + videoId + "?autoplay=1";
WebBrowser player = new WebBrowser();
player.setURL(getVideoUrl);
f.addComponent(BorderLayout.CENTER, player);
However webBrowser.reload() solves the problem on android phones but not on Android Tablets.
While viewing the video, if the mobile is set to sleep by the user, the display goes out while watching the video. So how to disable the sleep mode?
Mobile screen display out problem.
When the video completes, the youtube video gives video link of the related videos & they can be played too, how can I disable that. I don't want to make other videos play from the app
The video doesn't play in android icecream sandwich and below.
Try: webBrowser.setPage("<html><head></head><body></body></html>", null);
You can use Display.getInstance().setScreenSaverEnabled(false);.
That's a setting on youtube for embedded links. You can select to disallow it.
That's a limitation of the html embed code from google. Not much we can do here.
