Music playing continuously with name - javascript

I was actually able to make music play continuously throughout the pages without reloading, using frames (I know music playing continuously is not a good idea but the client really requested it, so I had no choice). Here is what I used for the frame with the music playing:
<body>
<div id="player">
<audio id="audio" controls="controls" autoplay="autoplay" loop="loop" style="width:150px;">
<source src="martnalia05namoracomigo.ogg" type="audio/ogg" />
<source src="martnalia05namoracomigo.mp3" type="audio/mp3" />
<embed src="martnalia05namoracomigo.mp3" hidden="true" loop="TRUE" autostart="TRUE"></embed>
</audio>
</div>
</body>
I inserted this music just to test, and I would like to know if it is possible to make a play list and if it is possible to inform the music which is currently playing with a link in it and a button to skip a music, for example:
[player]
| button previous | button to play/pause | button next
| name of the music (link to the page of the Album) |
[end of player]
Any suggestions?

You are wanting to make a small media player perhaps, if thats the case there are plenty of ready made script available to help you accomplish this. (Google is your friend).
If you do decide to go about it on your own here are my thoughts, they may help you in the right direction.
var data = [{audiourl: "filename1.mp3", artisturl:"http://example.com",name:"Song name"},
{audiourl: "filename1.mp3", artisturl:"http://example.com",name:"Song name"}];
Some sort of data structure to store the details of your tracks.
var audio = document.getElementById("audio");
audio.addEventListener('ended', playNext);
Finally some sort of function to handle the switching of tracks
var currentTrack = 0;
function playNext(options){
currentTrack++;
if (currentTrack > data.length){
currentTrack = 0;
}
var audiosrc = document.getElementById('embed_element_id') // or some other selector method
audiosrc.src = data[currentTrack].audiourl;
audiosrc.play();
}
Im not totally sure on the HTML5 audio specification but i would assume its along these lines.
Hope this helps

You're probably going to have to use a media player plugin. Try LeanBack Player:
http://leanbackplayer.com/ + http://leanbackplayer.com/player_extensions.html (XSPF Audio Playlist extension)
It's HTML5/CSS/JS with a Flash fallback option so you should be able to style it to suit your needs easily enough.

How to click the video to change video source in html

I'm sorry that my english is not very good, I searched for many methods I could find on the Internet, but they were all unsuccessful.
My idea: When the website is opened, a video will be automatically played (A). When the mouse clicks on the video (rather than some buttons), video A will be replaced with video B, and keep the same size and format, and be on the same web page. And when the mouse is clicked again, video B is changed to video A again.
This is the code I tried but it failed:
function setVideo() {
document.getElementById("video-01").src="demo/2.mp4";
}
<div class="video" id="video-one" οnclick="setVideo()">
<video id="video-01">
<source src="demo/1.mp4" type="video/mp4"/>
</video>
</div>
I haven't learned how to program, so I don't know how to do it. I have tried to use in HTML to link to another video, but this will change the style of the page.
Can you help me please?
Like this?
const videoA = 'https://media.istockphoto.com/videos/attractive-woman-blogger-speaks-about-professional-voice-over-and-video-id1253606799'
const videoB = 'https://media.istockphoto.com/videos/aerial-shot-flying-along-road-with-driving-vehicles-trucks-and-cars-video-id1251170644'
document.querySelector('video').addEventListener('click', (evt) => {
const currentVideo = evt.target.getAttribute('src')
if (currentVideo === videoA) {
evt.target.setAttribute('src', videoB)
} else {
evt.target.setAttribute('src', videoA)
}
})
<video autoplay muted width="480" height="320" src="https://media.istockphoto.com/videos/attractive-woman-blogger-speaks-about-professional-voice-over-and-video-id1253606799"></video>

Don't preload video, but still show "thumbnail"

I'm trying to display many video thumbnails/posters without actually loading the video...
Bascially what I've got is the following:
<div class="col-sm-3" style="padding: 20px;" onclick='location.href="/videoDetails/{{ #video.ID }}"'>
<video width="100%" style="cursor:pointer;"
<source src="/{{ #video.path }}">
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
</div>
That hole thing is in a foreach loop and with that, it loads up to 100 videos on one page...
My problem now is that this gets super slow, the more videos there are load at once..
Now I found this answer on a StackOverflow thread, where it says to use the attribute preload="none" on the video tag... That seems to speed up the loading (because it doesn't preload the videos), however, it doesn't display any image (preview) at all..
In my case, there's no reason to load the hole video though, because (as you can see in the code), the actual video is then displayed on another page, when clicking on the div.
Also, just to make sure you got me right, I want to display the auto generated preview of the first frame of the video. I can't upload a seperate image to display it with the poster attribute, it has to be the default image..
Is there any way I can achieve this? I'm also open to Javascript/jQuery solutions...
You can get video frames in different time periods with append #t in the video source url. But with the attribute preload none value you cannot get the video frames. So You need to use the metadata value in the preload attribute.
These are the three values you can use in the preload attribute:
none - Hints to the browser that the user likely will not watch the video, or that minimizing unnecessary traffic is desirable.
metadata - Hints to the browser that the user is not expected to need the video, but that fetching its metadata (dimensions, first frame, tracklist, duration, and so on) is desirable.
auto - Hints to the browser that optimistically downloading the entire video is considered desirable. - Hints to the browser that optimistically downloading the entire video are considered desirable.
You can check the below results with these three values.
<p>metadata</p>
<video width="300" height="150" controls="controls" preload="metadata">
<source src="http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/gtv-videos-bucket/sample/ElephantsDream.mp4#t=2" type="video/mp4" />
</video>
<p>none</p>
<video width="300" height="150" controls="controls" preload="none">
<source src="http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/gtv-videos-bucket/sample/ElephantsDream.mp4#t=2" type="video/mp4" />
</video>
<p>auto</p>
<video width="300" height="150" controls="controls" preload="auto">
<source src="http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/gtv-videos-bucket/sample/ElephantsDream.mp4#t=2" type="video/mp4" />
</video>
I would say that creating so many video HTML elements will affect performance anyhow, loading or not, since the DOM is under quite heavy pressure.
A different (and more advance) approach I would recommend is the following.
If you want that one image will load when the user clicks on it, you can "create" a video in that specific moment, triggering only the video requested.
So:
instead of the video tag, load an image with onclick listener, that will pass an ID to a JS function
when the user clicks it will create the video element.
at the same time, hide the image (or maybe a gif?)
Try to run the snippet here below :)
function myFunction(id) {
var element = document.getElementById(id);
var videlem = document.createElement("video");
element.innerHTML = '';
source = 'https://file-examples-com.github.io/uploads/2017/04/file_example_MP4_480_1_5MG.mp4';
var sourceMP4 = document.createElement("source");
sourceMP4.type = "video/mp4";
sourceMP4.src = source;
videlem.appendChild(sourceMP4);
videlem.autoplay = true;
element.appendChild(videlem);
}
<p>Click on the image</p>
<div id="img242">
<img onclick="myFunction('img242')" src="https://blog.majestic.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/Video-Icon-crop.png">
</div>

Volume Control in Video Element using Twilio Rooms

I'm using Twilio Rooms to do a webrtc video/audio conference call..
When receiving the tracks (video + audio) I attach them to an element:
participant.tracks.forEach(track => {
document.getElementById('video-feeds').appendChild(track.attach());
});
This effectively creates two HTML elements:
<div id="video-feeds" style="height:calc(100% - 50px)">
<audio autoplay="" id="c22e4dfd-e0da-4ae4-a6ce-00b2d1b7ab5b" height="100%" controls="controls"></audio>
<video autoplay="" id="bb11c320-c2e7-44d8-95c2-3d647cee4c7e" controls="controls" height="100%"></video>
</div>
Each of those HTML element has its own control
In previous webrtc libraries I used you were able to add both as one element (a video object with sounds) but it seems like twilio splits them...
Can they be added together using twilio? I couldnt find anything in the documentation or here in stack overflow.

Implement site with text reader

I have decided to start a new project.
This project is a spell checker to help children and send the report on how well the child is performing to the teacher.
I have already set up where the teacher can place the word, and what I now need to do is that when the pupil clicks the button, the word gets read out loud.
Is there any plugin that I could use?
I'm not worried about how the pupil will access the word but how to make the word be read out.
Any language will be fine.
Thank you all for your time.
I guess the easiest thing would be to use html5 audio to play the according word from the webserver whenever it is clicked:
<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function main() {
var path = "/sndz"; //folder on the webserver for all your sound files
var Hello = document.getElementById("Hello");
Hello.onclick = readWrd(path + "Hello.mp3");
return false;
}
function readWrd(String audioSrc) {
var wrd = new Audio(audioSrc);
wrd.play();
}
</script>
<!--and later in make link or sth-->
<a id="Hello" href="#">Hello</a>
<!--leave the 'href' empty if you want the link to be destroyed after you click it-->
</body>
</html>
All you need to do is add the word at the end of the link below, and then you can style it as much as you want e.g. autoplay when you click a button.
<audio controls="controls">
<source src="http://translate.google.com/translate_tts?tl=en&q=wordgoeshere" type="audio/mpeg">
</audio>

HTML 5 Video playstate overlay

You are going to have to use a combination of the canvas tag and javascript to get what you want.
Try taking a look at these two articles for a start:
