I want to let audio play in the background, but I don't want it to start while
the page loads. Can I delay it with CSS or JS? Is this possible?
I now got this, but it still doesn't work. I think it is supposed to work.
Google Chrome shouldn't matter either right?
<audio id="audioID"
src="spraakbericht.m4a"
style="display:none/*or you can use visibility:hidden*/"></audio>
<script>
var myAudio = document.getElementById("audioID");
window.onload = function() {
setTimeout(function(){
myAudio.play();
}, 3000); // you can change this... whatever you want //
}
</script>
Hope you can help!
Yes. You can easily achieve the same using some JS.
Place audio div tag somewhere in your page. ex- div id="audio"
Execute code when you want like on button click or automatically after 30 sec or 2 minutes using setTimeout.
setTimeout( () => {
document.getElementById('song').innerHTML = 'audio id="audio-player" controls="controls" style="display: none" src="media/Blue Browne.mp3" type="audio/mpeg"';
}, (millisecond));
Note to add markup tag as I removed in the example as it's not supporting here.
Yes this is possible. You can use setTimeout function like this:
<audio controls="controls" onloadeddata="var audioPlayer = this; setTimeout(function() { audioPlayer.play(); }, 3000)">
<source src="music.mp3" type="audio/mp3" />
</audio>
For background audio:
var myAudio = document.getElementById("audioID");
window.onload = function() {
setTimeout(function(){
myAudio.play();
}, 3000);
}
EDIT Here is a working example for you:
<audio id="audioID"
src="http://a.tumblr.com/tumblr_leltkjNwWL1qf32t9o1.mp3"
style="display:none/*or you can use visibility:hidden*/"></audio>
<script>
var myAudio = document.getElementById("audioID");
window.onload = function() {
setTimeout(function(){
myAudio.play();
}, 3000); // you can change this... whatever you want //
}
</script>

I have a video the being played. How can I call a function 5 seconds before the end of the video?
I thought to put a timer when I start the video, the problem is that the user can control the video, and stop it and play again how many times he wants, so the timer is getting ineffective.
Examples would be very nice!
-----EDIT-----
this is an example to a code i'm using:
video = document.createElement("video");
video.setAttribute("id", id);
video.src = url;
video.onended = function(e) {
var playlistName = getPlaylistName();
findNextSongToPlay(playlistName, playNextSong);
};
I want the "onended" event to be called not in the end, but 5 seconds before..
So I need to change it a little bit..
Again, Thanks a lot!
Here is a demo for you
Edit: Updated Demo.
window.onload=function(){
video = document.createElement("video");
video.setAttribute("id", "Myvideo");
video.setAttribute("controls", "controls");
video.src = "http://www.w3schools.com/html/mov_bbb.mp4";
video.addEventListener("timeupdate", myfunc,false);
document.body.appendChild(video);
}
function myfunc(){
if(this.currentTime > this.duration-5){
//Less than 5 seconds to go. Do something here.
//---- For Demo display purposes
document.getElementById('Example').innerHTML="Less than 5 seconds to go!";
//---------
} //End Of If condition.
//---- For Demo display purposes
else{document.getElementById('Example').innerHTML="";}
//---------
}
<div id="Example"></div>
Since your player is dynamically created you can use:
video = document.createElement("video");
video.setAttribute("id", id);
video.src = url;
//Add the event Listener
video.addEventListener("timeupdate", myfunc,false);
video.onended = function(e) {
var playlistName = getPlaylistName();
findNextSongToPlay(playlistName, playNextSong);
};
and that should call this function
function myfunc(){
if(this.currentTime > this.duration-5){
//Do something here..
}
}
If you have any questions please leave a comment below and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
I hope this helps. Happy coding!
Sample with HTML5 player.
At most 100 milliseconds of difference can occur, not exactly 5 seconds.
But you can tune the script.
You can paste this code here to try it:
http://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml5_video_all
<html>
<body>
<video id="vid" width="320" height="240" controls>
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg">
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
<script>
var callOnce = true;
function monitorVideo() {
if ((vid.duration - vid.currentTime) < 5)
if (callOnce) {
myFunction();
callOnce = false;
}
}
function myFunction() {
console.log('5 seconds');
}
setInterval(monitorVideo, 100);
</script>
</body>
</html>
Tell us what video player you are using.
If it is custom put an id on part that says how far in to the video you are and say
if (document.getElementById("bla").innerhtml === whatever 5 seconds before the end of the video is)
function();
I need a video to start at a specific time and I need that time to be determined by the value written into the page's URL.
I have this video element:
<video id="vid1" width="auto" height="auto" controls autoplay>
<source src="video1.mp4" type="video/mp4">
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
This function successfully cues the video to 50 seconds:
<script>
document.getElementById('vid1').addEventListener('loadedmetadata', function() {
this.currentTime = 50;
}, false);
</script>
Let's say my URL is http://www.mywebaddress.com/video1.html?50
I want to grab the value "50" from the URL and pass it into my function so that I can dynamically change the time to which the video cues.
I've got this function to grab the value from the URL:
<script>
function GetUrlValue(VarSearch){
var TimeCode = window.location.search.substring(1);
}
</script>
How do I rewrite the cue function now so that it sets the value to whatever value chosen in the URL?
Thanks in advance.
You could try this :
<script>
var TimeCode;
function GetUrlValue(){
TimeCode = parseInt(window.location.href.split("?")[1]);
}
</script>
And then :
GetUrlValue();
document.getElementById('vid1').addEventListener('loadedmetadata', function() {
this.currentTime = TimeCode;
}, false);
You can either change the call of this.currentTime to
document.getElementById('vid1').addEventListener('loadedmetadata', function() {
this.currentTime = window.location.search.substring(1);
}, false);
or in sticking to your variable mechanism you could do
var TimeCode = window.location.search.substring(1);
document.getElementById('vid1').addEventListener('loadedmetadata', function() {
this.currentTime = TimeCode;
}, false);
I have a small jQuery function to play audio when a user clicks the link. I don't need any controls, they are short samples. I just want to play anytime a user clicks. Here is the html for the section that should play;
</div class="classicalRecordings">
Open song
</div>
Then this is the jQuery to play the sound;
function playMusic(){
var audioElement = document.createElement('audio');
var audioElementSrc = $(this).attr('data-audio-src');
audioElement.setAttribute('src', audioElementSrc);
$.get();
audioElement.addEventListener("load", function(){
audioElement.play();
}, true);
}
$(function(){
$('.play').click(playMusic);
});
It doesn't seem to work. I think it has to do with the src variable, I am not sure I am passing it to the audioElement correctly. I have tested using an alert to be sure I am grabbing the data-audio-src correctly. Any help is appreciated.
I think that the event you're looking for is the loadeddata event.
function playMusic(){
var audioElement = document.createElement('audio');
var audioElementSrc = $(this).attr('data-audio-src');
audioElement.setAttribute('src', audioElementSrc);
$.get();
// changed "load" t0 "loadeddata"
audioElement.addEventListener("loadeddata", function(){
audioElement.play();
}, true);
}
$(function(){
$('.play').click(playMusic);
});
Although you could probably be better off having a static audio element and changing the src attribute on user clicks rather than creating a new audio element.
// example
var audio = document.getElementsByTagName('audio')[0];
audio.addEventListener('loadeddata', function() {
this.play();
}, true);
function playMusic() {
var audioElementSrc = $(this).attr('data-audio-src');
audio.setAttribute('src', audioElementSrc);
};
$('.play').click(playMusic);
There is a framework for this that is worth checking out. ListenJS. I wrote it :)
Try something like this:
<audio id="sound">
<source src="music/classical/open.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
</audio>
And from code:
$(function(){
$('#sound').get(0).play();
});
I'm trying to make a video player which contains vimeo and local video but I'm dont know how to switch the video source to local video if the vimeo video fails to play.Im using video.js.any help please :)
here is my coding:
HTML
<video id="vid1" src="" class="video-js vjs-default-skin" controls preload="auto" width="640" height="360">
Javascript:
videojs('vid1', { "techOrder": ["vimeo"], "src": "https://vimeo.com/63186969" }).ready(function() {
// You can use the video.js events even though we use the vimeo controls
// As you can see here, we change the background to red when the video is paused and set it back when unpaused
this.on('pause', function() {
document.body.style.backgroundColor = 'red';
});
this.on('play', function() {
document.body.style.backgroundColor = '';
});
// You can also change the video when you want
// Here we cue a second video once the first is done
this.one('ended', function() {
this.src('http://video-js.zencoder.com/oceans-clip.mp4');
this.play();
});
i make some changes to my js but still unable to change.im new to javascript..please help me :)
Javascript:
videojs('vid2', { "techOrder": ["vimeo"], "src": "https://vimeo.com/63186969" }).ready(function() {
// You can use the video.js events even though we use the vimeo controls
// As you can see here, we change the background to red when the video is paused and set it back when unpaused
this.on('pause', function() {
document.body.style.backgroundColor = 'red';
});
this.on('play', function() {
document.body.style.backgroundColor = '';
});
// You can also change the video when you want
// Here we cue a second video once the first is done
this.one('ended', function() {
this.src('http://vimeo.com/79380715');
this.play();
});
myPlayer.src("http://video-js.zencoder.com/oceans-clip.mp4");
var myPlayer = videojs('vid2');
myPlayer.ready(function(){ /*Video is ready*/ });
myPlayer.error(function(){ /*An error happened*/ });
mpPlayer.play();
]);
So there are the 2 events:
var myPlayer = videojs('example_video_1');
myPlayer.ready(function(){ /*Video is ready*/ });
myPlayer.error(function(){ /*An error happened*/ });

This question already has answers here:
How to tell if a <video> element is currently playing?
(7 answers)
Closed 1 year ago.
I've looked through a couple of questions to find out if an HTML5 element is playing, but can't find the answer. I've looked at the W3 documentation and it has an event named "playing" but I can't seem to get it to work.
This is my current code:
var stream = document.getElementsByTagName('video');
function pauseStream() {
if (stream.playing) {
for (var i = 0; i < stream.length; i++) {
stream[i].pause();
$("body > header").addClass("paused_note");
$(".paused_note").text("Stream Paused");
$('.paused_note').css("opacity", "1");
}
}
}
It seems to me like you could just check for !stream.paused.
Check my answer at How to tell if a <video> element is currently playing?: MediaElement does not have a property that tells if it is playing or not. But you could define a custom property for it.
Object.defineProperty(HTMLMediaElement.prototype, 'playing', {
get: function(){
return !!(this.currentTime > 0 && !this.paused && !this.ended && this.readyState > 2);
}
})
Now you can use it on video or audio elements like this:
if(document.querySelector('video').playing){
// Do anything you want to
}
Note : This answer was given in 2011. Please check the updated documentation on HTML5 video before proceeding.
If you just want to know whether the video is paused, use the flag stream.paused.
There is no property for a video element in getting its playing status. But there is one event "playing" which will be triggered when it starts to play. An Event called "ended" is also triggered when it stops playing.
So the solution is:
Declare one variable videoStatus.
Add event handlers for different events of video.
Update videoStatus using the event handlers.
Use videoStatus to identify the status of the video.
This page will give you a better idea about video events. Play the video on this page and see how the events are triggered.
http://www.w3.org/2010/05/video/mediaevents.html
jQuery(document).on('click', 'video', function(){
if (this.paused) {
this.play();
} else {
this.pause();
}
});
Add eventlisteners to your media element. Possible events that can be triggered are: Audio and video media events

Best approach:
function playPauseThisVideo(this_video_id) {
var this_video = document.getElementById(this_video_id);
if (this_video.paused) {
console.log("VIDEO IS PAUSED");
} else {
console.log("VIDEO IS PLAYING");
}
}
I encountered a similar problem where I was not able to add event listeners to the player until after it had already started playing, so #Diode's method unfortunately would not work. My solution was check if the player's "paused" property was set to true or not. This works because "paused" is set to true even before the video ever starts playing and after it ends, not just when a user has clicked "pause".
You can use 'playing' event listener =>
const video = document.querySelector('#myVideo');
video.addEventListener("playing", function () {
// Write Your Code
});
Here is what we are using at http://www.develop.com/webcasts to keep people from accidentally leaving the page while a video is playing or paused.
$(document).ready(function() {
var video = $("video#webcast_video");
if (video.length <= 0) {
return;
}
window.onbeforeunload = function () {
var htmlVideo = video[0];
if (htmlVideo.currentTime < 0.01 || htmlVideo.ended) {
return null;
}
return "Leaving this page will stop your video.";
};
}
a bit example
var audio = new Audio('https://www.soundhelix.com/examples/mp3/SoundHelix-Song-1.mp3')
if (audio.paused) {
audio.play()
} else {
audio.pause()
}
I just looked at the link #tracevipin added (http://www.w3.org/2010/05/video/mediaevents.html), and I saw a property named "paused".
I have ust tested it and it works just fine.
This is my code - by calling the function play() the video plays or pauses and the button image is changed.
By calling the function volume() the volume is turned on/off and the button image also changes.
function play() {
var video = document.getElementById('slidevideo');
if (video.paused) {
video.play()
play_img.src = 'img/pause.png';
}
else {
video.pause()
play_img.src = 'img/play.png';
}
}
function volume() {
var video = document.getElementById('slidevideo');
var img = document.getElementById('volume_img');
if (video.volume > 0) {
video.volume = 0
volume_img.src = 'img/volume_off.png';
}
else {
video.volume = 1
volume_img.src = 'img/volume_on.png';
}
}
I just did it very simply using onpause and onplay properties of the html video tag. Create some javascript function to toggle a global variable so that the page knows the status of the video for other functions.
Javascript below:
// onPause function
function videoPause() {
videoPlaying = 0;
}
// onPause function
function videoPlay() {
videoPlaying = 1;
}
Html video tag:
<video id="mainVideo" width="660" controls onplay="videoPlay();" onpause="videoPause();" >
<source src="video/myvideo.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>
than you can use onclick javascript to do something depending on the status variable in this case videoPlaying.
hope this helps...
My requirement was to click on the video and pause if it was playing or play if it was paused. This worked for me.
<video id="myVideo" #elem width="320" height="176" autoplay (click)="playIfPaused(elem)">
<source src="your source" type="video/mp4">
</video>
inside app.component.ts
playIfPaused(file){
file.paused ? file.play(): file.pause();
}
var video_switch = 0;
function play() {
var media = document.getElementById('video');
if (video_switch == 0)
{
media.play();
video_switch = 1;
}
else if (video_switch == 1)
{
media.pause();
video_switch = 0;
}
}
I just added that to the media object manually
let media = document.querySelector('.my-video');
media.isplaying = false;
...
if(media.isplaying) //do something
Then just toggle it when i hit play or pause.
a bit example when playing video
let v = document.getElementById('video-plan');
v.onplay = function() {
console.log('Start video')
};
