This allows you to define a different element to append children to as opposed to the main component element. Because sometimes components require more than one element to create their structure. e.g. a menu button.
I've got a way to run tests across every browser and device out there except for IE8, and IE8 should work except I'm running into a Browserstack bug that I've let them know about.
It uses a project called bunyip, which internallt uses Yeti (YUI), Pagekite, and Browserstack.
Next steps include:
- Making it all automatic. Right now you have to wait for browsers to connect and then manually hit enter when they have.
- Make it a grunt task
- Document it all so others can use it
I think this is close enough for me to close the milestone 4.0 issue.
When transferring the poster attribute from the container to the tech in mediafaker, use the accessor methods instead of directly referencing the private properties.
We use a div with a background image to simulate the poster image so that we can use a single poster implementation for flash and html. It may be desirable on some platforms to use the native poster image, however. On iPhones for instance, the simulated poster image covers up the native play button and can make it difficult to figure out where to touch to initiate playback. By keeping the poster attribute on the underlying video element, you can hide the simulated poster to get a native look-and-feel on that platform.
Disabled is a bit overloaded with visible but unusable controls, so use hidden instead. Re-arrange default styles a bit and use dom helper methods instead of the vjs-objection functions.
If you are quick, you could get videojs to wrap the HTML video element twice on iOS. The video element has to be recreated after moving on iOS but we weren't re-associating it with the player object. When autoSetup swung through, it would re-initialize the video element and create a player within a player.
The volume controls and mute toggle are guarding against not having a tech present, so it's no longer necessary to mock the tech for all command-line tests. Individual tests continue to do so using PlayerTest.makePlayer.
Hide volume slider and mute toggle when the current tech doesn't support adjusting video volume. Added controls specific test cases. Volume-related controls retest whether to display themselves whenever `loadstart` fires.
