I am using VideoJs player 4.2
When i open a videojs player in safari browser in ios device , it works on native controls by default . When i pause the player, i display overlay buttons (links to go for other page) on video . If i click buttons it does not fire in ios . It works well in desktop browsers . If i set nativeControlsForTouch to false it displays custom controls . Here overlay buttons and custom controls works but it will be sluggish and i am not able scroll over video and it will be not smooth as compared with native controls . Please suggest me any idea
- If i use native controls , then overlay buttons has to work
- If i use custom controls , then video player will be as smooth as compared with native controls
Here is my code
videojs("ex_video",{"controls":true, "preload":"metadata","width":"auto", "height":"auto",
"poster":"/images/test.png"},function(){
var current_player=this;
current_player.imageOverlay({
opacity: 0.5,
height: '100%',
width: '50%'
});
current_player.on("pause", function(){
current_player.bigPlayButton.show();
});
current_player.on("play", function(){
current_player.bigPlayButton.hide();
});
});
