Is it possible to start a video programatically? #37

Is there a way to start a video programatically? I tried to access the player with getVimeoPlayer, but it doesn't seem to work.

Hi @MoSattler, currently you can put an auto play flag on the params prop: &autoplay=1

What you can do is play with this prop on you app and when you want to trigger the play of the player change the params sent to the video.

@Marcoo09 Wouldn't that reload the whole web view?

@Marcoo09 changing the params prop to have '&autoplay=1' throws the following warning: Changes to property mediaPlaybackRequiresUserAction do nothing after initial render
