In 6.0, we changed the way that Menu Buttons were being created by
wrapping an actual button with a menu sibling in a container. The
playback rate menu also had a rate value display. In 6.x, this rate
value display ended up coming on top of the button itself and capturing
it's clicks. So, we want to remove pointer-events from the rate-value
display and resize the actual button to be the size of the control.
We added a feature so that remote text tracks can auto-removed when a source changes. However, in 6.x we changed the source behavior to be asynchronous meaning that some text tracks were accidentally being removed when they weren't supposed to be.
For example:
```js
var player = videojs('my-player');
player.src({src: 'video.mp4', type: 'video/mp4'});
// set second arg to false so that they get auto-removed on source change
player.addRemoteTextTrack({kind: 'captions', src: 'text.vtt', srclang: 'en'}, false);
```
Now when the player loads, this captions track is actually missing because it was removed.
Instead of adding auto-removal tracks immediately to the list, wait until we've selected a source before adding them in.
Fixes#4403 and #4315.
player.duration() currently returns 0 if the duration is not known, when it should return NaN. The problem is that if NaN is passed to player.duration() as an argument, we set the duration to 0. If player.cache_.duration was set to NaN by other means, player.duration() would still return 0.
Modify the player duration() method so that it will 1.) set the cached duration to NaN if it is passed in as an argument, and 2.) return the proper value when called without an argument.
When picture-in-picture mode is entered on Safari, `webkitbeginfullscreen` is triggered which results in a proxied `fullscreenchange` event and adding the fullscreen class to the player. That causes the tech element to collapse to zero height so that the "this video is playing in picture in picture" placeholder is not visible.
On `webkitbeginfullscreen` check whether the presentation mode is `picture-in-picture` before proxying `fullscreenchange` event.
These are a few performance improvements.
* Use textContent instead of innerHTML for text content.
* Construct TextTrackSettings content with HTML strings where possible because it's a bit faster than manual DOM construction.
* Do minimal DOM updates to time controls. This reduces our timeupdate footprint from ~2-2.5ms to ~1ms!
Video.js players can accept a number of standard <video> element options (autoplay, muted, loop, etc), but not currently playsinline, which is now part of the [HTML spec](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/embedded-content.html#attr-video-playsinline). We should add it to the list of <video> attributes that can be provided to the player as options.
On Safari and iOS, we use native text tracks, so, during text track
button creation, textTracks() is populated. However, `this.kinds_` isn't
necessarily set and ends up throwing.
Instead, we want to move the fallback for `this.kinds_` from the
constructor and right above the usage of `this.kinds_`.
Prevent ClickableComponents re-adding event listeners each time enabled() is called.
* Keeps track of enabled state (this.enabled_)
* enable() doesn't do anything if the component is enabled, so the event handlers are not re-added
Fixes#4312
* Fix the doc/example/elephantsdream/index.html file, add an index of doc/examples, and update CDN links to use video.js v5.19.
* Add poster from CDN to Elephants Dream examples.
This adds a beforepluginsetup event as well as beforepluginsetup:$name and pluginsetup:$name events.
The drive behind this is improving the ability for people to make cross-plugin dependencies in a more robust manner.
Android Chrome now supports playbackRate properly, so removes the blacklist added in #3246 for newer Chrome versions.
Adds `browser.CHROME_VERSION` as a necessary evil.
No longer blacklists for Chrome 58+ -- this could possibly be fixed since 52, but 58 is all I've been able to test on and most users should keep Chrome up to date.
In the new middleware work, the way that new sources were loaded was refactored. We also recently made techs and components work either TitleCased or camelcased. There was one comparison that didn't do the proper check and cause the tech to be reloaded, even if the two techs were the same.
