Autoplay ('doPlay') video on entryReady

[Mindgames]

Is this possible? Have spent day's trying to figure this out but can't get my head around it. Think it would be good with some hands on API documentation for the Reference App

[MichalRadwantzor]

Yes it is possible. You just have to wait for "jsCallbackReady" first.
Let's say mPlayerView is an instance of PlayerViewController, you should do the following:

    mPlayerView.registerJsCallbackReady( new KPlayerJsCallbackReadyListener() {
        @Override
        public void jsCallbackReady() {
                mPlayerView.play();
        }

    });

Should i put that in https://github.com/kaltura/player-sdk-native-android/blob/master/PlayerSDK/src/com/kaltura/playersdk/PlayerViewController.java ?

Am a bit lost right now

[MichalRadwantzor]

no need to change playerSDK code. You should add that code to where you keep reference to PlayerViewController. for instance, in the demo app it would be around:

AndroidReferenceApp/DemoApplication/src/com/kaltura/activity/Info.java

Line 216 in 780a07e

PlayerViewController playerView = (PlayerViewController) findViewById( R.id.custom_player );

[Mindgames]

Could you show me an example how to this in exactly the android reference app. I just can't get it to work.

[MichalRadwantzor]

Take a look at my first comment, this is the exact code you need. If it doesn't work please paste your code.

[Mindgames]

Probably am doing some simple mistake, First Android project, Not flawing on java so it's hard to see where am screwing this up. I will pick it up insanely fast if i just can connect the dots and see a working example. Have been using the "AndroidReferenceApp" as my starter plate, made much changes but the PlayerSDK functions is more or less intact ( If my code ( against all odds ) would be correct, Then let me know where you think i could have screwed up.

Okay i got it finally. I was way wrong. This is what i did to get it work

 private void updateData() {
        SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("mm:ss");
        PlayerViewController playerView = (PlayerViewController) findViewById( R.id.custom_player );
        final PlayerViewController  mPlayerView = (PlayerViewController) findViewById( R.id.custom_player );
        mPlayerHelper = new PlayerHelper( playerView, this, mIsLargeScreen );
        Point size = new Point();

        //calculate player size
        getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getRealSize(size);
        //list of items to hide when opening fullscreen
        List<View> comps = new ArrayList<View>();
        mPlayerHelper.showPlayer(entryId, partnerId, size.x, size.y, comps);

        // Autoplay video
        mPlayerView.registerJsCallbackReady( new KPlayerJsCallbackReadyListener() {
            @Override
            public void jsCallbackReady() {
                mPlayerView.play();
            }

        });

    }

[Mindgames]

Have one more question. Have built my own UI on top of video view and want to make it VISIBLE upon player onStateChanged for PAUS / END and make it invisible on PLAY

Trying to put something like this in the same spot where i did put JsCallbackReady.

 mPlayerStateListener.onStateChanged(new PlayerStates.PAUSE() {

image = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageViewback);
image.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);

        });

Not doing so well with this.

[MichalRadwantzor]

I'm not clear how do you add mPlayerStateListener to PlayerViewController.

In general, the best way would be to add a listener to "playerPaused" and "playerPlayed".
for example:

    playerView.addKPlayerEventListener( "playerPaused", new KPlayerEventListener() {
        @Override
        public void onKPlayerEvent(Object body) {
            // TODO display the image here

        }

        @Override
        public String getCallbackName() {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            return "onPlayerPaused";
        }       
    });

    playerView.addKPlayerEventListener( "playerPlayed", new KPlayerEventListener() {
        @Override
        public void onKPlayerEvent(Object body) {
            // TODO hide the image here

        }

        @Override
        public String getCallbackName() {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            return "onPlayerPlayed";
        }       
    });

[Mindgames]

So just did try with this without any success

 @TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN_MR1)
    private void updateData() {

        SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("mm:ss");
        final PlayerViewController playerView = (PlayerViewController) findViewById(R.id.custom_player);
        mPlayerHelper = new PlayerHelper(playerView, this, mIsLargeScreen);
        Point size = new Point();

        //calculate player size
        getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getRealSize(size);

        //list of items to hide when opening fullscreen
        List<View> comps = new ArrayList<View>();
        mPlayerHelper.showPlayer(entryId, partnerId, size.x, size.y, comps);


        // Autoplay video
        playerView.registerJsCallbackReady(new KPlayerJsCallbackReadyListener() {
            @Override
            public void jsCallbackReady() {
                playerView.play();
            }
        });

        // Hide show controllers 
        playerView.addKPlayerEventListener("playerPaused", new KPlayerEventListener() {
            @Override
            public void onKPlayerEvent(Object body) {
                // TODO display the image here
                image = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageViewHeart);
                image.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
            }

            @Override
            public String getCallbackName() {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                return "onPlayerPaused";
            }

        });


        playerView.addKPlayerEventListener("playerPlayed", new KPlayerEventListener() {
            @Override
            public void onKPlayerEvent(Object body) {
                // TODO hide the image here
                image = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageViewHeart);
                image.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);

            }

            @Override
            public String getCallbackName() {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                return "onPlayerPlayed";
            }
        });



    }

[Mindgames]

@MichalRadwantzor Would really appreciate if you could take a look at the code above.

[MichalRadwantzor]

@Mindgames please try to call addKPlayerEventListener only after jsCallbackReady has been sent.

[Mindgames]

@MichalRadwantzor That did work much better.

Now am trying to do something when the video have loaded and are starting to play. This is what i come up with, Not doing the job really

 PlayerView.registerPlayerStateChange(new OnPlayerStateChangeListener() {
   @Override
   public boolean onStateChanged(PlayerStates Playing) {
    // Do something
  return(true);
    }
  }); 

Any suggestions ?

[Mindgames]

Nvm, Now it got it :)

     playerView.addKPlayerEventListener("playerPlayEnd", new KPlayerEventListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onKPlayerEvent(Object body) {
                        // Do something
                    }

                    @Override
                    public String getCallbackName() {
                        return "onPlayerPlayEnd";
                    }
                });
