I will have a look at the issue but not sure if I myself can fix that... </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/self-hosted-video-pre-loading-time-autoplay#post-21556 Sat, 25 Jun 2011 19:14:30 +0000 GriffinGraffix 21556@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Thank you Dude,</p> <p>Let's see what Kriesi finds.</p> <p>Meanwhile I found this here: <a href="http://www.projekktor.com/docs/playlists?DokuWiki=5de50a4615d617f433f9381956ea268a#projekktor_playlist_format" rel="nofollow">http://www.projekktor.com/docs/playlists?DokuWiki=5de50a4615d617f433f9381956ea268a#projekktor_playlist_format</a></p> <p>In order to prevent skipping and pausing of the first clip you can set config.disablePause and config.disallowSkip to TRUE like that:<br /> [ 1. projekktor('#player_a', {<br /> 2. controls: true,<br /> 3. volume: 0.5,<br /> 4. playlist: [<br /> 5. {<br /> 6. 0:{src:'advertisement.mp4', type: 'video/mp4'},<br /> 7. 1:{src:'advertisement.ogv', type: 'video/ogv'},<br /> 8. config: {<br /> 9. disablePause: true,<br /> 10. disallowSkip: true<br /> 11. }<br /> 12. },<br /> 13. {<br /> 14. 0:{src:'myvideo.mp4', type: 'video/mp4'},<br /> 15. 1:{src:'myvideo.ogv', type: 'video/ogv'}<br /> 16. }<br /> 17. ]<br /> 18. });]</p> <p>If I understand this right, by changing this to false, the vid should start playing when I click play and pause when I pause it even while loading.<br /> 9. disablePause: false,<br /> But, it's not giving me a pre-load time so the video will most likely stutter unless I pause it long enough to load part of it myself.<br /> Maybe there's another parameter that can be added to this like: autoPlayAfter: 30 (as in after 30seconds) or something of the kind.</p> <p>Or maybe I'm just totally wrong and this isn't where the var should go if there is one to add for pre-load time. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/self-hosted-video-pre-loading-time-autoplay#post-21544 Sat, 25 Jun 2011 14:07:28 +0000 Dude 21544@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey,<br /> I searched the docs for a parameter to control the preloading time but couldn't find any: <a href="http://www.projekktor.com/docs/configuration" rel="nofollow">http://www.projekktor.com/docs/configuration</a> - I'l ask Kriesi if he knows one though. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/self-hosted-video-pre-loading-time-autoplay#post-21532 Sat, 25 Jun 2011 04:43:34 +0000 GriffinGraffix 21532@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>When the video is self hosted, the video has to load completely before you can start watching it.<br /> This is much too long.<br /> Any way we can set a pre-load time of say 15secs &amp; the have video start even if it's not finished loading? </p>
