Can your player interact with javascript?

Last updated on March 22, 2010

The player included with our system is the widely used JW Player. This player indeed features a complete javascript API. You can learn more about this in our player API section. We also have a few tutorials on player javascript interaction.

Beware that there are various ways to hook up the videoplayer with javascript (e.g. hardcoding the ID of the player or traversing the DOM for an embed tag). While various methods may work, we only support connecting the player through a global playerReady function.
