videojs-smooth-slider-plugin

Enhance your Video.js player with smooth seeking capabilities using videojs-smooth-slider-plugin. This plugin provides an improved scrubbing experience, making the seek bar interactions more responsive and precise. It achieves this by customizing the handleMouseMove and getPercent methods of the Video.js SeekBar component.

Installation

Install the plugin into your project with npm:

npm install @kokotree-inc/videojs-smooth-slider-plugin

Usage

To integrate the plugin with your Video.js player:

import videojs from "video.js";
import "@kokotree-inc/videojs-smooth-slider-plugin";

const player = videojs("my-video");

// Activate the smooth seek plugin with default settings
player.smoothSeek();

// Optionally, activate the plugin with custom settings
player.smoothSeek({
  timeBuffer: 10, // time in seconds
});

Options

• timeBuffer: (number) Specifies the time in seconds to buffer from the end of the video when seeking. This prevents the seek slider from reaching the very end of the video, which could inadvertently trigger the end of the video. Default is 5 seconds.

Features

• Smooth Scrubbing: Offers a smoother and more intuitive seeking experience.
• Video.js Compatibility: Seamlessly integrates with the Video.js ecosystem.
• Easy Integration: Simple setup process with existing Video.js players.
