This plugin allows you to stream audio and video in a fullscreen, native player on iOS and Android.
- Works with PhoneGap >= 3.0.
- Uses the MPMoviePlayerController.
- Tested on iOS 7. (If someone has an iOS 6 device, please report back to me how it does.)
- Uses VideoView and MediaPlayer.
- Creates two activities in your AndroidManifest.xml file.
- Tested on Android 4.0+. (If someone has a Gingerbread device, please report back to me how it does.)
var videoUrl = STREAMING_VIDEO_URL;
// Just play a video
window.plugins.streamingMedia.playVideo(videoUrl);
// Play a video with callbacks
var options = {
successCallback: function() {
console.log("Video was closed without error.");
},
errorCallback: function(errMsg) {
console.log("Error! " + errMsg);
}
};
window.plugins.streamingMedia.playVideo(videoUrl, options);
var audioUrl = STREAMING_AUDIO_URL;
// Play an audio file (not recommended, since the screen will be plain black)
window.plugins.streamingMedia.playAudio(audioUrl);
// Play an audio file with options (all options optional)
var options = {
bgColor: "#FFFFFF",
bgImage: "<SWEET_BACKGROUND_IMAGE>",
bgImageScale: "fit",
successCallback: function() {
console.log("Player closed without error.");
},

window.plugins.streamingMedia.playAudio(audioUrl, options);
