I have webpage with a video element nested in a div class="video-container" along with a div class="video-control-bar" which I am using JQuery to animate. I am also using setInterval to query the currentTime of the video element and reflect that in the progress bar contained in the video-control-bar.
JavaScript:
$(function(){
$(".video-container").each(function(){
player_init($(this))
})
})
function player_init(self)
{
setInterval(function(){
var video = self.find("video")[0]
self.find(".video-control-bar").find(".video-position").find("input").val(video.currentTime / video.duration)
self.find(".video-control-bar").find(".video-position").find("progress").val(video.currentTime / video.duration)
}, 500)
self.hover(function(){
self.find(".video-control-bar").stop().animate({bottom: "0px"}, 25)
}, function(){
self.find(".video-control-bar").stop().animate({bottom: "-39px"}, 350)
})
}
Problem? Well, in Chrome, if I load the page, my setInterval function gets called every 500ms like expected, until I mouse over the player, causing the control-bar animation. After that no further calls are made to my setInterval function.
HOWEVER if I hit refresh, the page reloads and I can mouse over it all I want and everything continues working correctly. But only if I load the page via a refresh.
This doesn't happen in Firefox. I suspect it may be a bug in Chrome, as it is similar to a problem I submitted here.
I really have no idea if it's a problem with the way I'm doing things, an issue with JQuery or a bug in Chrome. I really don't care who's bug it is, I just want things to work.
Thanks.
self.hover() might be returning when finished thus ending the player_init()
Try something that separates the timeout function from the hover function, like this:
$(function(){
$(".video-container").each(function(){
$this = $(this); //small optimization
hover_init($this);
player_init($this);
});
});
function player_init(self){
var a = self.find(".video-control-bar .video-position");
var video = self.find("video")[0]
setInterval(function(){
a.find("input").val(video.currentTime / video.duration)
a.find("progress").val(video.currentTime / video.duration)
}, 500)
}
function hover_init(self){
selfhover(
function(){
self.find(".video-control-bar").stop().animate({bottom: "0px"}, 25)
}, function(){
self.find(".video-control-bar").stop().animate({bottom: "-39px"}, 350)
});
}
