you might say this is a duplicate of
Adding Quality Selector to plyr when using HLS Stream
but its not. my idea is different
what i want to do is when you touch a quality of your preference it will change the source of the player and i want it to be in the player preferably in the menu\settings.
i tried
html
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/hls.js"></script>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/plyr@3"></script>
<script src="./script.js"></script>
<div class="container">
Try adjust different video quality to see it yourself
<video controls crossorigin playsinline >
<source
type="application/x-mpegURL"
src="https://bitdash-a.akamaihd.net/content/sintel/hls/playlist.m3u8"
>
</video>
</div>
js
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", () => {
const video = document.querySelector("video");
const source = video.getElementsByTagName("source")[0].src;
// For more options see: https://github.com/sampotts/plyr/#options
// captions.update is required for captions to work with hls.js
const defaultOptions = {};
if (Hls.isSupported()) {
// For more Hls.js options, see https://github.com/dailymotion/hls.js
const hls = new Hls();
hls.loadSource(source);
// From the m3u8 playlist, hls parses the manifest and returns
// all available video qualities. This is important, in this approach,
// we will have one source on the Plyr player.
hls.on(Hls.Events.MANIFEST_PARSED, function (event, data) {
// Transform available levels into an array of integers (height values).
const availableQualities = hls.levels.map((l) => l.height)
// Add new qualities to option
defaultOptions.quality = {
default: availableQualities[0],
options: availableQualities,
// this ensures Plyr to use Hls to update quality level
forced: true,
onChange: (e) => updateQuality(e),
}
// Initialize here
const player = new Plyr(video, defaultOptions);
});
hls.attachMedia(video);
window.hls = hls;
} else {
// default options with no quality update in case Hls is not supported
const player = new Plyr(video, defaultOptions);
}
function updateQuality(newQuality) {
window.hls.levels.forEach((level, levelIndex) => {
if (level.height === newQuality) {
console.log("Found quality match with " + newQuality);
window.hls.currentLevel = levelIndex;
}
});
}
});
css
.container {
padding-top: 18vh;
margin: 20px auto;
width: 600px;
}
video {
width: 100%;
}
but this is different it doesn't work on some URLs
