Note: On iOS platform, due to the platform limitations, the CLICKED event can't be fired when VideoPlayer is in fullscreen mode. If you want to let the Video played in fullscreen and also fire the CLICKED event properly, you should use a Widget component to hack the VideoPlayer's size.

Detailed Explanation

Currently this component is only available on Web(Both PC and Mobile), iOS and Android. You can't use it on Mac or Windows which means if you preview VideoPlayer on these platforms, there is nothing to show.

The supported video types are determined by the supported OS, in order to make it works across all the supported platforms, we suggest to use mp4 format.

Add a callback via script

Method one

This method uses the same API that editor uses to add an event callback on Button component. You need to construct a cc.Component.EventHandler object first, and then set the corresponding target, component, handler and customEventData parameters.

var videoPlayerEventHandler = new cc.Component.EventHandler();
videoPlayerEventHandler.target = this.node; //这个 node 节点是你的事件处理代码组件所属的节点
videoPlayerEventHandler.component = "cc.MyComponent"
videoPlayerEventHandler.handler = "callback";
videoPlayerEventHandler.customEventData = "foobar";

videoPlayer.videoPlayerEvent.push(videoPlayerEventHandler);

// here is your component file
cc.Class({
    name: 'cc.MyComponent'
    extends: cc.Component,

    properties: {
    },

    //the order of parameters should not change
    callback: function(videoplayer, eventType, customEventData) {
        //videoplayer is a VideoPlayer component instance
        //eventType is typed as cc.VideoPlayer.EventType 
        //customEventData is "foobar"
    }
});

Method two

Add event callback with videoplayer.node.on('ready-to-play', ...)

// Suppose we add event handling callbacks in the onLoad method of a component and perform event handling in the callback function:

cc.Class({
    extends: cc.Component,


    properties: {
       videoplayer: cc.VideoPlayer
    },

    onLoad: function () {
       this.videoplayer.node.on('ready-to-play', this.callback, this);
    },

    callback: function (event) {
       //event is EventCustom, you can use event.detail to get VideoPlayer component
       var videoplayer = event.detail;
       //do whatever you want with videoplayer
       //you can't pass customEventData in this way
    }
});

Likewise, you can also register 'meta-loaded', 'clicked' , 'playing' events, and the parameters of the callback function for these events are consistent with the 'read-to-play' parameters.
