I write this after spending the day before trying all the solutions that I have found without success (Some solutions are more than seven years old).
The real problem is getting the state of the video to stop the slide change in a slider.
So I have narrowed down the problem using the example from the documentation to just know what I am doing wrong.
I am not using an empty div but the iframe.
In the example, the video should play in onPlayerReady, but it doesn't.
I hope you can help me. Thank you.
The API documentation: https://developers.google.com/youtube/iframe_api_reference
The code (https://jsfiddle.net/migrad/xa8vdyn1/5/):
HTML:
<iframe id="player" width="100%" height="87%" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/M7lc1UVf-VE?rel=0&enabledjsapi=1" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Javascript:
var player;
var tag = document.createElement('script');
tag.src = "https://www.youtube.com/iframe_api";
var firstScriptTag = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
firstScriptTag.parentNode.insertBefore(tag, firstScriptTag);
function onYouTubeIframeAPIReady() {
player = new YT.Player('player', {
events: {
'onReady': onPlayerReady,
'onStateChange': onPlayerStateChange
}
});
}
function onPlayerReady(event) {
event.target.playVideo();
}
// 5. The API calls this function when the player's state changes.
// The function indicates that when playing a video (state=1),
// the player should play for six seconds and then stop.
var done = false;
function onPlayerStateChange(event) {
if (event.data == YT.PlayerState.PLAYING && !done) {
setTimeout(stopVideo, 6000);
done = true;
}
}
function stopVideo() {
player.stopVideo();
}
