Full media src structure

{
  name: "", // The video name. Used on playlists
  poster: "", // A video specific poster. Overrides poster attribute
  ads: [
    {
      play_at_percent: 0,
      sources: [
        {
          src: "https://domain.test/ad_example.mp4",
          type: "video/mp4",
        },
        // You can define additional fallback sources here
      ],
      tracks: [
        {
          src: "https://domain.test/ad_example_en-US.vtt",
          kind: "captions",
          srclang: "en-US",
          default: true,
        },
        // You can define additional language tracks here
      ],
    },
  ],
  sources: [
    {
      src: "https://domain.test/example.mp4",
      type: "video/mp4",
    },
    // You can define additional fallback sources here
  ],
  tracks: [
    {
      src: "https://domain.test/example_en-US.vtt",
      kind: "captions",
      srclang: "en-US",
      default: true,
    },
    // You can define additional language tracks here
  ],
}

The src attribute

The bare minimum,

src: {
  sources: [
    {
      src: "https://cdn3-d.mindedgeonline.com/videos/how-we-help-video.mp4",
      type: "video/mp4",
    },
  ],
}

<VuetifyPlayer :src="src" />

See Full media src structure

The playlist attribute

This accepts an array of media sources to play in a playlist format. Eg:

playlist: [
  { sources: [{ src: "first.mp4", type: "..."}], tracks: [...] },
  { name: "", sources: [{ src: "second.mp4", type: "..."}], tracks: [...] },
  { poster: "", sources: [{ src: "third.mp4", type: "..."}], tracks: [...] },
  // Additional media source objects
]

<VuetifyPlayer :playlist="playlist" />

When passing this attribute a playlist menu will appear and media will auto-advance from one source to the next on completion. Both of these can be adjusted with playlistmenu and playlistautoadvance. See Supported <VuetifyPlayer> Attributes for more information

For more informationm about media sources see Full media src structure

The ads array

The <VuetifyPlayer> supports video injection via the ads array. This can be used to inject any other media source at any time during playback.

For example:

• For preroll set play_at_percent to 0
• For midroll set play_at_percent to 50
• For postroll set play_at_percent to 100

For multiple ads simply define multiple objects in the ads array.

ads: [
    {
        play_at_percent: 0,
        sources: [
            {
                src: 'https://domain.test/ad1_example.mp4',
                type: 'video/mp4',
            },
            // You can define additional fallback sources here
        ],
        tracks: [
            {
                src: 'https://domain.test/ad1_example_en-US.vtt',
                kind: 'captions',
                srclang: 'en-US',
                default: true,
            },
            // You can define additional language tracks here
        ],
    },
    // You add additional ad objects here
]

See Full media src structure for where the ads array is placed

Captions

The player supports .vtt captions as defined in the tracks array explained above.

Additionally we support the tag <c.transcript> ... </c> inline with your captions text. This tag will omit the enclosed text from the video player captions overlay but show the text in the separate interactive captions panel. This allows you to include additional information that you want to appear in the transcript that might not be appropriate to display in the video player itself.

Below is a sample.vtt on how to use the <c.transcript> tag.

WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.999
This text will show. <c.transcript>This text is hidden from the player.</c> This is some more text to show.
This text will show up on a new line in the player.

00:00:03.000 --> 00:00:5.999
