Restarting or restoring after chromecast session (VMAP)

[jbreemhaar]

Hi all,

I'm trying to find a way to restart, pause or restore after a chromecast session (e.g. playing in videojs, then chromecasting, then back to playing in browser) within the same videojs player session.

I've tried

• https://developers.google.com/interactive-media-ads/docs/sdks/html5/client-side/faq#8 (calling destroy() on AdsManager and contentComplete() on AdsLoader) and then calling player.ima.changeAdTag with an updated AdTagUrl (to make it unique for IMA).
• (re) calling player.ima() with an updated AdTagUrl
  but no cigar.

Is there any way to temporarily pause videojs-ima (during the cast session) or restart this plugin?
Thanks!

Solved. For reference:

player.ima.getAdsManager?.().destroy();
adsLoader?.contentComplete();
player.ima.changeAdTag(updatedAdTagUrl);
player.ima.requestAds();

Is the way to go.
