audio and video in HTML5

HMTL5 includes a standard way to embed audio and video tags, without the use of flash.

Playing audio and video on the web is now easy and opens up a lot of possibilities audio-visual interaction and manipulation.


video sources

Simple example

first, preparing your video files

To be certain that your videos will play in all current browsers, you need to have videos in .mp4 format.

There are several solutions to convert video files to mp4 and audio to mp3.


in Miro

  • Select the file you want to convert to .ogv and .mp4
  • Choose the Format menu:
    • For a .mp4 video Video > MP4
  • Press the large button: "Convert to ..."

Conversion will start. When it is done the new file will be saved.

video tag

See code in action in codepen 

<video controls>
  <source src="http://publicationstation.wdka.hro.nl/go-student/Andre-Castro/videos/tour.mp4"  type="video/mp4">
</video>

This is the simplest a web video player you can get.

A <video> tag encapsulating 1 <source> tag, that contains the same video mp4 file</nowiki>.

The argument controls make sure the video players has controls.

audio tag

If you want to create an audio player, it is similar to video:

See code in action in codepen 

<audio controls>
  <source src="https://ia802608.us.archive.org/15/items/OTRR_X_Minus_One_Singles/XMinusOne55-04-24001NoContact.mp3"  type="audio/mp3">
</audio>

video / audio tag attributes

Besides controls the <video> and <audio> has a number of other attributes.

More on video attributes: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/video

  • controls - if present, show player's controls
  • autoplay - if present, automatically start player as page loads.
  • loop - if present,
  • poster - presents a poster image while the video is stopped as
  • height
  • width

See code in action in codepen 

<video controls loop width=800 poster="http://static.ddmcdn.com/gif/tour-de-france-top-ways-the-race-has-changed-picnic-130619.jpg">

Audio & Video in Public Spaces

homework assignment

#1 - video

Build a web page with a video player, where:
  • video plays automatically, loops and has a posts


Interaction

media events

Using Javascript and jQuery is possible to interactively control the audio/video events.

Here are a few examples[1]:

play / pause with mouseover

See code in action in codepen 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.3.min.js"></script>
<style>
    body {text-align:center;}
    div.videowrap {display: inline-block;}
</style>
 </head>
  <body>
<div class="videowrap">
<video id="testvideo" autoplay loop width=800 poster="http://static.ddmcdn.com/gif/tour-de-france-top-ways-the-race-has-changed-picnic-130619.jpg">
  <source src="http://publicationstation.wdka.hro.nl/go-student/Andre-Castro/videos/tour.mp4"  type="video/mp4">
</video>
</div>
<script>
  $(document).ready(
  function(){
  video = $('video#testvideo')[0]; //video player on to variable

      $('div.videowrap').mouseover(
          function(){
              video.play()
          })
          .mouseout(
          function(){
              video.pause()
          })

})
</script>
  </body>
</html>


move forward / back in currentTime

See code in action in codepen

Left and right arrow keys change video's currenttime. 

<script>
  $(document).ready(
  function(){
  video = $('video#testvideo')[0]; //video player on to variable
$( 'body').keydown(function( event ) {
  console.log(event);
  if ( event.key == 'ArrowLeft' ){ video.currentTime=video.currentTime-1;}
  if ( event.key == 'ArrowRight' ){ video.currentTime=video.currentTime+1;}
   })
})
</script>

instead of interacting with .currentTime it is possible to interact with

  • playbackRate
playbackRate=1; // original playback rate 
playbackRate=0.1; // very slow playback rate
playbackRate-=0.1; // decrease playback rate
playbackRate+=0.1; // increase playback rate
  • volume
playBackRate-=0.1; // 
playBackRate+=0.1


event listeners

It is also possible to write scripts to react to certain media events, such as play, pause, ended, etc.

The way it works is by adding and event listener to the video tag, that waits for an event to happen. When it does happen it executes the function

video.addEventListener('event', function(e){ do something here})

events

Here is a list of media events that can be listened to:

  • playing - The MediaController is no longer a blocked media controller.
  • ended - The MediaController has reached the end of all the slaved media elements.
  • durationchange - The duration attribute has just been updated.
  • timeupdate - The media controller position changed.
  • play Event - The paused attribute is newly false.
  • pause - The paused attribute is newly true.
  • ratechange - Either the defaultPlaybackRate attribute or the playbackRate attribute has just been updated.
  • volumechange - Either the volume attribute or the muted attribute has just been updated.

more interaction

Here is example with video interaction, using JS : http://publicationstation.wdka.hro.nl/go-student/Andre-Castro/skies/


playing

[[1]] CODE pen is not responding

In these example, while playing change the body's background to black and when paused to white. 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.3.min.js"></script>
<style>
    body{text-align:center;}
    div.videowrap {display: inline-block;}
</style>

 </head>
  <body>
<div class="videowrap">
<video id="testvideo" controls width=800 poster="http://static.ddmcdn.com/gif/tour-de-france-top-ways-the-race-has-changed-picnic-130619.jpg">
  <source src="http://publicationstation.wdka.hro.nl/go-student/Andre-Castro/videos/tour.mp4"  type="video/mp4">
  <source src="http://publicationstation.wdka.hro.nl/go-student/Andre-Castro/videos/tour.ogv"  type="video/ogg">
</video>
</div>
<script>
  $(document).ready(
  function(){
  video = $('video#testvideo')[0]; //video player on to variable

      video.addEventListener('play',  function(event){
          $('body').css('background', 'black');
      })

      video.addEventListener('pause',  function(event){
          $('body').css('background', 'white');
      })

  })

</script>
  </body>
</html>

#2 video

Once you learn JS

  • includes an event listener that changes something on your page or the video
  • the user can interact with video events, without using the video player's controls.
