Usage

// Within your render function, assuming you have a file called
// "background.mp4" in your project. You can include multiple videos
// on a single screen if you like.

<Video source={{uri: "background"}}   // Can be a URL or a local file.
       ref={(ref) => {
         this.player = ref
       }}                             // Store reference
       rate={1.0}                     // 0 is paused, 1 is normal.
       volume={1.0}                   // 0 is muted, 1 is normal.
       muted={false}                  // Mutes the audio entirely.
       paused={false}                 // Pauses playback entirely.
       resizeMode="cover"             // Fill the whole screen at aspect ratio.
       repeat={true}                  // Repeat forever.
       playInBackground={false}       // Audio continues to play when app entering background.
       playWhenInactive={false}       // [iOS] Video continues to play when control or notification center are shown.
       progressUpdateInterval={250.0} // [iOS] Interval to fire onProgress (default to ~250ms)
       onLoadStart={this.loadStart}   // Callback when video starts to load
       onLoad={this.setDuration}      // Callback when video loads
       onProgress={this.setTime}      // Callback every ~250ms with currentTime
       onEnd={this.onEnd}             // Callback when playback finishes
       onError={this.videoError}      // Callback when video cannot be loaded
       onBuffer={this.onBuffer} // Callback when remote video is buffering
       style={styles.backgroundVideo} />

// Later to trigger fullscreen
this.player.presentFullscreenPlayer()

// To set video position in seconds (seek)
this.player.seek(0)

// Later on in your styles..
var styles = StyleSheet.create({
  backgroundVideo: {
    position: 'absolute',
    top: 0,
    left: 0,
    bottom: 0,
    right: 0,
  },
});

Android Expansion File Usage

// Within your render function, assuming you have a file called
// "background.mp4" in your expansion file. Just add your main and (if applicable) patch version
<Video source={{uri: "background", mainVer: 1, patchVer: 0}} // Looks for .mp4 file (background.mp4) in the given expansion version.
       rate={1.0}                   // 0 is paused, 1 is normal.
       volume={1.0}                 // 0 is muted, 1 is normal.
       muted={false}                // Mutes the audio entirely.
       paused={false}               // Pauses playback entirely.
       resizeMode="cover"           // Fill the whole screen at aspect ratio.
       repeat={true}                // Repeat forever.
       onLoadStart={this.loadStart} // Callback when video starts to load
       onLoad={this.setDuration}    // Callback when video loads
       onProgress={this.setTime}    // Callback every ~250ms with currentTime
       onEnd={this.onEnd}           // Callback when playback finishes
       onError={this.videoError}    // Callback when video cannot be loaded
       style={styles.backgroundVideo} />

// Later on in your styles..
var styles = Stylesheet.create({
  backgroundVideo: {
    position: 'absolute',
    top: 0,
    left: 0,
    bottom: 0,
    right: 0,
  },
