Autoplay next item without a playlist

[Solved]

Foliovision › Forums › FV Player › How to … › Autoplay next item without a playlist

  • miksmusic 3 years, 9 months ago

    Hi!
    Say there are 5 or 10 players on the page.
    Is this possible to auto-play the next player on this page without a playlist?
    I wasn’t able to find a setting for that.
    If there’s no setting I suppose it’s possible to capture the ‘finished’ event via the api and then start the next player.
    Not sure how to get the index of the player that finished the video, though. So if I could get something like flowplayer(x) from the api (where x is the index of the currently active player) that would be great but I don’t really see an obvious way to do that. Any help? Thanks!!

    Hello miksmusic,

    I’m not sure how we could introduce this as a new player function. Perhaps it could act on the shortcode level, so you would post the players like this:

    [fvplayer id="1" group="my-group-name"]
    
    [fvplayer id="2" group="my-group-name"]
    

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Thank you
    That sounds great but I understand it’s not available yet?
    In the meantime I was trying to implement my own solution using this JS logic:
    1. load ids of all players on the page into an array
    2. on ‘finished’ event get the id of the active player
    3. get the id of the next player from the array in #1
    4. start playback

    Seems to be stuck at #4. Can’t load the api using the player’s id. Always get ‘api is undefined’..
    Even using something like var api = flowplayer(0) still throws ‘undefined’ error. Something I’m missing? Tnx
