Media
component

decorator.
Player

the Media
wrapper.

This is the source of the media you want to play. Currently supporting Youtube, Vimeo, and any HTML5 compatible video or audio.
vendor

autoPlay
: PropTypes.bool
Autoplay media when the component is mounted or src
changes.
loop
: PropTypes.bool
Loop the current src
indefinitely.
useAudioObject
: PropTypes.bool

class instead of rendering an element to the page.
connectSource
: PropTypes.func(source, audioContext)
A chance to connect a series of
AudioNode

vendor. Must return a new audio node that will be
connected to audioContext.destination

onPlay
: PropTypes.func
Callback when media starts playing.
onPause
: PropTypes.func
Callback when media has been paused.
onError
:PropTypes.func
Callback when an error occurs.
onDuration

onVolumeChange
: PropTypes.func
Callback when the player volume has changed.
