Video.js Resolution Switcher

Resolution switcher for video.js v5

Getting Started

Setup sources dynamically:

<video id='video' class="video-js vjs-default-skin"></video>
<script src="video.js"></script>
<script src="videojs-resolution-switcher.js"></script>
<script>
  videojs('video', {
    controls: true,
    plugins: {
        videoJsResolutionSwitcher: {
          default: 'high',
          dynamicLabel: true
        }
      }
  }, function(){
  
    // Add dynamically sources via updateSrc method
    player.updateSrc([
        {
          src: 'http://media.xiph.org/mango/tears_of_steel_1080p.webm',
          type: 'video/webm',
          label: '360'
        },
        {
          src: 'http://mirrorblender.top-ix.org/movies/sintel-1024-surround.mp4',
          type: 'video/mp4',
          label: '720'
        }
      ])

      player.on('resolutionchange', function(){
        console.info('Source changed to %s', player.src())
      })
      
  })
</script>

Or use <source> tags:

<video id="video" class="video-js vjs-default-skin" width="1000" controls data-setup='{}'>
   <source src="http://mirrorblender.top-ix.org/movies/sintel-1024-surround.mp4" type='video/mp4' label='SD' />
   <source src="http://media.xiph.org/mango/tears_of_steel_1080p.webm" type='video/webm' label='HD'/>
</video>
 <script>
  videojs('video').videoJsResolutionSwitcher()
</script>

Source options

Sources can passed to player using updateSrc method or <source> tag as shown above. Avalible options for each source are:

  • label - String (required) is shown in menu (ex. 'SD' or '360p')
  • res - Number is resolution of video used for sorting (ex. 360 or 1080)

Plugin options

You can pass options to plugin like this:

videojs('video', {
      controls: true,
      muted: true,
      width: 1000,
      plugins: {
        videoJsResolutionSwitcher: {
          default: 'low'
        }
      }
    }, function(){
      // this is player
    })

Avalible options:

  • default - {Number}|'low'|'high' - default resolution. If any Number is passed plugin will try to choose source based on res parameter. If low or high is passed, plugin will choose respectively worse or best resolution (if res parameter is specified). If res parameter is not specified plugin assumes that sources array is sorted from best to worse.
  • dynamicLabel - {Boolean} - if true current label will be displayed in control bar. By default gear icon is displayed.
