Vaadin 6 / 7 / 8 Framework UI
1

Hey there,

I’m currently working on a Vaadin App which is supposed to be the software for an information monitor you probably know from hotels etc.

The app should basically only consists of a “video view” where a “video player element” automatically loads the video from a given “url” and after it’s finished it should move on with another url.

Unfortunately I couldn’t find something like a video component with a listener (stop listener?) in vaadin.

Can somebody help me with that?

Thanks in advance.

I’m a complete beginner in terms of working with the Vaadin framework and I’m curious how yo

Why do you even use Vaadin for that? A simple HTML page with an embedded video would do the job.

Because I want to implement it together with the corresponding admin panel in which you can add new videos etc.

It should be simple to wrap HTMLMediaElement in a Java component. Let’s see if I find time tomorrow

Since the question in Vaadin 6 / 7 / 8 category I assume you actually use Vaadin 8.

If that is really the case, you would be interested in this add-on

It gives a better Video component for Vaadin 8, which has two things for you

  • MediaEndedEvent (this was what you specifically asked)
  • uses range requests for streaming the Video, which will improve the UX with lengthier videos
