how to control the video play or pause by html5media?

[DevinCarl]

I want to control the video to play or pause, and listen the event when finished playing.
how can I do these just by html5media?

is there any methods like html5media.play()?

Unfortunately, because html5media will be implemented either using a flash player or the HTML5 MediaElement (depending on browser support), there’s no way to consistently call methods on the element.

html5media is designed to be small, fast and minimal. If you need this level of control, I’d look at a more advanced video player.

You can easily add controls as you need. Just need to create for both flowplayer and standard HTML5. I have used jQuery for the HTML5 example, but the events are available in plain javascript.

For on finish, you can do something like this:

Flowplayer:

html5media.configureFlowplayer = function(element, config) {        
    config.clip.onFinish = function(clip) {
        //do something when finished
    }           
    return config;
}

HTML5

$('video').on('ended',function(){
      //do something when finished
});

If you want to manually play videos:

Flowplayer:
$f('videoId').play();

HTML5:
$('#videoId').get(0).play();
