Feature Request: data-cycle-youtube-timeout to provide a different timeout for videos and images

[nick0]

So that you can set a different timeout for videos (eg data-cycle-youtube-timeout=0) and images (eg data-cycle-timeout=5000) in the one Cycle2 slideshow.

This way videos will play for the full length before proceeding to the next slide - and images can change after a specified amount of time.

At the moment in a slideshow containing both images and videos:

• if I set data-cycle-timeout=0, videos work great (they play their full length and then progress to the next slide) but images only progress to the next slide on clicking the pagination or next/prev arrows
• if I set data-cycle-timeout=5000, images work great (they play for 5 seconds before progressing to the next slide) but videos only show for the 5 seconds before progressing to the next slide

Maybe something like this is currently possible or I am missing something? I couldn't see any documentation about it.

I posted a query related to this on Stack Exchange: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/34650242/jquery-cycle2-handling-images-and-videos-differently-in-the-same-slideshow

Thanks for the awesome slideshow Malsup.

Just letting you know here as well, I answered your Stack Exchange question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/34650242/jquery-cycle2-handling-images-and-videos-differently-in-the-same-slideshow/34774886#34774886

Thanks Ryan. That sounds like a good plan. It is beyond my limited javascript / programming skills unfortunately. Thanks anyway.

Another implementation could perhaps be an option to set a timeout per slide. <img src="#" data-title="test img1" data-cycle-solo-timeout="7000"> <a href="#" data-title="test vid1" data-cycle-solo-timeout="0"></a> <img src="#" data-title="test img2"> If not specified like on img2 above, it should take the std data-cycle-timeout setting from the slideshow call. Anyone know how to implement something like this?

An idea should be to add an event listener to embed video and call pause and resume function when video switch state. I tried this : function onYouTubePlayerReady(){ console.log("ready"); var players = $('.cycle-youtube embed').each(function(){ if(this.addEventListener) { this.addEventListener('onStateChange', 'handlePlayerStateChange'); }else{ this.attachEvent('onStateChange', 'handlePlayerStateChange'); } }); } function handlePlayerStateChange(state) { switch(state) { case 1: case 3: // Video has begun playing/buffering $('.cycle-slideshow').cycle('pause'); break; case 2: case 0: // Video has been paused/ended $('.cycle-slideshow').cycle('resume'); break; } } not working for now

any help ?
