Playing public media:

The playback-id allows for easy video playback by linking directly to the media file. Playback is available as soon as the media status is "ready".

For on-demand videos:

<fastpix-player playback-id="playback-id" />

Here, the stream-type is set to on-demand by default.

For live-stream videos:

<fastpix-player playback-id="playback-id" stream-type="live-stream" />

Here, the stream-type is set to live-stream to play live streams.

Securing your playback:

Secure your video playback with a signed playback using a playback-id and token.

• On-Demand Videos : Use the playback-id and token to control access to the video. The token ensures only authorized users can play the video.

<fastpix-player 
  playback-id="your-playback-id" 
  stream-type="on-demand" 
  token="your-secure-token"
></fastpix-player>

• Live-Stream Videos : Similarly, for live streams, provide the playback-id and token to secure access.

<fastpix-player 
  playback-id="your-live-playback-id"
  stream-type="live-stream" 
  token="your-secure-token">
</fastpix-player>

The token ensures authorized access, securing both on-demand and live-stream content.

<fastpix-player playback-id="playback-id" thumbnail-time={8}></fastpix-player>

Keyboard Navigation and Accessibility:

Customize keyboard shortcuts with hot-keys for efficient video control and use disable-keyboard-controls to disable keyboard interactions for enhanced accessibility or specific use cases.

• hot-keys: The hot-keys attribute specifies custom keyboard shortcuts (e.g., KeyK, KeyC), but when set, control for these specific keys will be disabled within the .

<fastpix-player playback-id="your-playback-id" hot-keys="KeyK KeyC" ></fastpix-player> 

The available keys are - KeyK, KeyC, KeyF, KeyM, ArrowLeft, ArrowRight, ArrowUp, ArrowDown, Space;

• disable-keyboard-controls: The disable-keyboard-controls attribute disables all keyboard interactions for video playback within the , preventing any keyboard shortcuts from being used.

<fastpix-player playback-id="your-playback-id" hot-keys="KeyK KeyC" ></fastpix-player> 

Adding Chapters to Player and Event Listening:

Chapters and Event Listeners:

The chapters feature lets you divide your video into sections, making navigation easier for users. Each chapter has a startTime, optional endTime, and a title. This is useful for allowing users to jump to specific parts of a video quickly.

Below is a simple example of how to add chapters to the and listen for events like timeupdate and chapterchange:

<script>
  document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {
    const fpPlayerElement = document.querySelector('fastpix-player');

    fpPlayerElement.addEventListener('timeupdate', (event) => {
      const currentTime = fpPlayerElement.currentTime;
      console.log('Current Time:', currentTime);
    });

    const chapters = [
      { startTime: 0, endTime: 2, value: 'chapter-1' },
      {
        startTime: 4,
        value: 'Chapter 2'
      },
      {
        startTime: 5,
        endTime: 6,
        value: 'Chapter 3'
      },
    ];

    function addChaptersToPlayer() {
      if (fpPlayerElement && typeof fpPlayerElement.addChapters === 'function') {
        fpPlayerElement.addChapters(chapters);
      } else {
        console.error('addChapters method not found on fpPlayerElement');
      }
    }

    console.log("Source URL:", fpPlayerElement.currentSrc);
    console.log("readyState:", fpPlayerElement.readyState);
    console.log("buffered:", fpPlayerElement.buffered);

    // Wait until the player has loaded some data to associate chapters
    if (fpPlayerElement && fpPlayerElement.readyState >= 1) {
      addChaptersToPlayer();
    } else {
      if (fpPlayerElement) {
        fpPlayerElement.addEventListener('loadedmetadata', addChaptersToPlayer, { once: true });
      } else {
        console.error('fpPlayerElement not found');
      }
    }

    if (fpPlayerElement) {
      fpPlayerElement.addEventListener('chapterchange', () => {
        console.log('Chapter change event detected');
        console.log("Active Chapter:", fpPlayerElement.activeChapter());
        console.log("Chapters:", fpPlayerElement.chapters);
      });

      fpPlayerElement.addEventListener('error', () => {
        console.log('Error detected');
        console.log("Active Chapter:", fpPlayerElement.activeChapter());
      });
    } else {
      console.error('fpPlayerElement not found');
    }
  });
</script>

With convertOpenAIChapters Method:

If your chapters are generated by OpenAI, you can use the convertOpenAIChapters method to easily format them for the player:

<script>
  document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {
    const fpPlayerElement = document.querySelector('fastpix-player');

    // Assuming OpenAI returns chapter data
    const openAIchapters = [
      { startTime: 0, value: 'Chapter 1' },
      { startTime: 4, value: 'Chapter 2' },
      { startTime: 5, value: 'Chapter 3' },
    ];

    // Convert OpenAI chapters to the right format
    const chapters = convertOpenAIChapters(openAIchapters);

    function addChaptersToPlayer() {
      if (fpPlayerElement && typeof fpPlayerElement.addChapters === 'function') {
        fpPlayerElement.addChapters(chapters);
      } else {
        console.error('addChapters method not found');
      }
    }

    if (fpPlayerElement && fpPlayerElement.readyState >= 1) {
      addChaptersToPlayer();
    } else {
      fpPlayerElement.addEventListener('loadedmetadata', addChaptersToPlayer);
    }
  });
</script>

• Key Steps in the Code :

• Chapter Definition: Chapters are defined in an array, with each chapter having a startTime, endTime, and value.

• Event Listeners: The code listens for timeupdate to monitor playback, and loadedmetadata to ensure the player is ready before adding chapters.

• Adding Chapters: The chapters are added to the player with the addChapters method, which should be supported by the element.

• Handling Events: The code handles chapterchange and error events to track chapter changes and errors during playback.

• Without convertOpenAIChapters : You manually format and add the chapters.

• With convertOpenAIChapters: You automatically convert OpenAI's chapter data into the proper format for the player.

This simplifies adding chapters to the player, especially when dealing with large sets of data from external sources.

The --backdrop-color CSS variable allows you to customize the background color of the player controls, enabling you to match the player’s appearance with your application's theme and design.

fastpix-player {
  --backdrop-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.6); /* Semi-transparent dark background */
}

Each of these features is designed to enhance both flexibility and user experience, providing complete control over video playback, appearance, and user interactions in FastPix-player.
