  • Prop is about the same as BrightcovePlayer.
Prop Type Description
accountId string Required

referenceId string
videoToken string
resizeMode string Set the image resize method. Specifying cover or contain works the same as CSS keywords of background-size. Specifying fit, scales to fit the component size without considering aspect ratio of the image. Default value is cover.

BrightcovePlayerUtil

  • Promise for all methods may be invoke reject. Be sure to catch the exception.

requestDownloadVideoWithVideoId, requestDownloadVideoWithReferenceId

BrightcovePlayerUtil.requestDownloadVideoWithVideoId(accountId: string, policyKey: string, videoId: string, bitRate?: number): Promise<string>
BrightcovePlayerUtil.requestDownloadVideoWithReferenceId(accountId: string, policyKey: string, referenceId: string, bitRate?: number): Promise<string>
  • Starts downloading the specified video with videoId or referenceId for offline playback.
  • Returns VideoToken in string wrapped with Promise. This value will be used for offline playback with BrightcovePlayer, acquisition for download status or deletion of offline videos.
    • Note that this promise resolves the download start, not the download complete.
    • In case that specified video has already been downloaded Promise will be rejected.
    • If the download is in progress, the download is retried on iOS and rejected on Android.
  • Does not work properly on simulator.
  • bitrate controls the quality of the downloading video in bps.
    • Downloads a rendition with the largest bitrate less than or equal to this value.
    • If no rendition can be found with a bitrate that is smaller than or equal to this bitrate, the lowest rendition will be downloaded.
    • If this value is 0 or not specified, the lowest rendition with video will be downloaded.

getOfflineVideoStatuses

BrightcovePlayerUtil.getOfflineVideoStatuses(accountId: string, policyKey: string): Promise<{
  accountId: string;
  videoId: string;
  videoToken: string;
  downloadProgress: number;
}[]>
  • Lists downloaded offline videos and downloading progresses.
  • downloadProgress equals 1 indicates that offline playback available.
    • Otherwise the download is in progress and the value shows the progress ratio in 0.0 ~ 1.0.
  • Note that iOS returns offline videos for all accounts but Android only returns for the specified account. In other words iOS does not consider accountId and policyKey.

deleteOfflineVideo

BrightcovePlayerUtil.deleteOfflineVideo(accountId: string, policyKey: string, videoToken: string): Promise<void>
  • Deletes offline videos or abort the ongoing download session.

addOfflineNotificationListener

BrightcovePlayerUtil.addOfflineNotificationListener(callback: (statuses: {
  accountId: string;
  videoId: string;
  videoToken: string;
  downloadProgress: number;
}[]) => void): Function
  • Register a callback to notify storage changes such as video download progress or deletion of offline video.
  • Make sure call disposer function when callback is no longer needed.
class Example extends Component {
  componentDidMount() {
    this.disposer = BrightcovePlayerUtil.addOfflineNotificationListener(console.log);
  }

  componentWillUnmount() {
    this.disposer();
  }

  render() {
    ...
  }
}

getPlaylistWithPlaylistId, getPlaylistWithReferenceId

BrightcovePlayerUtil.getPlaylistWithPlaylistId(accountId: string, policyKey: string, playlistId: string): Promise<{
  accountId: String;
  videoId: String;
  referenceId: String;
  name: String;
  description: String;
  duration: number;
}[]>;
BrightcovePlayerUtil.getPlaylistWithReferenceId(accountId: string, policyKey: string, referenceId: string): Promise<{
  accountId: String;
  videoId: String;
  referenceId: String;
  name: String;
  description: String;
  duration: number;
}[]>;
