mediaelement.js play/pause on click controls don't work
- by iKode
I need to play and pause the video player if any part of the video is clicked, so I implemented something like:
$("#promoPlayer").click(function() {
$("#promoPlayer").click(function() {
if(this.paused){
this.play();
} else {
this.pause();
}
});
...but now the controls of the video won't pause/play.
You can see it in action here(http://175.107.134.113:8080/). The video is the second slide on the main carousel at the top.
I suspect I'm now getting 2 onclick events one from my code above and a second on the actual pause/play button.
I don't understand how the actual video controls work, because when I inspect the element, I just see a tag. If I could differentiate the controls, then perhaps I might have figured out a solution by now.
Anyone know how I should have done this, or is my solution ok. If my solutions ok, how do I intercept a click on the control, so that I only have one click event to pause / play?
If you look on the media element home page, they have a big play button, complete with mouseOver, but I can't see how they have done that? Can someone else help?
