Examples for accessing youtube and slideshare details

[kracekumar]

All the examples in directory are for auto changing slides w.r.t video, can you show an example how to use get current youtube video timing and current slide no.

[ffissore]

timing is driven by slides. to split a video while showing the same slide, you have to duplicate that slide with a different timing

If a video is currently running I would like to get the current time e.g 1.30. So I tried

presentz = new Presentz(".video169", $('.video169').width() + "x" + $('.video169').height(), ".video43", $('.video43').width() + "x" + $(".video43").height());
presentz.Youtube(presentz, ".video169", $('.video169').width(), $('.video169').height()) 
//also tried
presentz.Youtube(this, ".video169", $('.video169').width(), $('.video169').height())

TypeError: Object #<Object> has no method 'newElementName'

My main motive is to get current time of playing youttube video. Couldn't find any comments in the source code.

Edit:

presentz.availableVideoPlugins is undefined.

Sorry, source code is lacking proper documentation. To get the current time, you need to call presentz.presentation.chapters[presentz.currentChapterIndex].video._plugin.currentTime() I should add a getCurrentTime() method to the presentz obj.

Seems currentTime is trying to access undefined ?

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'getCurrentTime' of undefined presentz-1.2.0.min.js:19
t.currentTime presentz-1.2.0.min.js:19

@player object is created only when I call changeVideo in https://github.com/ffissore/presentz.js/blob/master/src/Youtube.coffee#L29.

Then tried

var t = presentz.presentation.chapters[0].video._plugin;
t.changeVideo({url: presentz.presentation.chapters[0].video.url});
console.log(presentz.presentation.chapters[0].video._plugin.currentTime()); // or
console.log(t.presentation.chapters[0].video._plugin.currentTime());

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'getCurrentTime' of undefined

I've just pushed 1.2.1 with a null check on @player. You should call that function once the player is set up: that depends on the player and its backend (youtube may sometimes be slow)

BTW: I sugget you to avoid using the minified version while developing, as it reports useless code lines

[kracekumar]

function youtube() {
            var t = presentz.presentation.chapters[0].video._plugin;
            t.changeVideo({url: presentz.presentation.chapters[0].video.url});
            /*for (var item in t){
              console.log(item);
            }*/
            console.log(t.player);
            console.log(t.currentTime());            
          }
presentz.presentation.chapters[0].video._plugin.ensureYoutubeIframeAPILoaded(youtube);

Error: Uncaught ReferenceError: YT is not defined presentz-1.2.1.js:326

[ffissore]

you are manually calling functions that presentz calls on its own, when it knows it can call them: you should know what you're doing

btw, I've just recall presentz emit a "timechange" event

presentz.on("timechange", function(currentTime) { ... });

[kracekumar]

Thanks, that makes clear.
