Controlling ngVideo object from Controller

Question

I'm using ngVideo in a project and am not sure how you would get/set current time from the controller.

My controller:

'use strict';

angular.module('clientApp')
.config(function($stateProvider){
  $stateProvider
  .state('video', {
    url:'/video',
    templateUrl:'views/video.html',
    controller:'VideoController as video'
  });
})
.controller('VideoController', function($scope, video){
  video.addSource('mp4', 'views/unit_1.mp4');
  video.currentTime = 10;
  console.log('Current Time: ' video.currentTime);

});

My HTML:

<section class="video" ng-video>
  <video vi-screen></video>
<section vi-feedback>

    <ul>
        <li>Time: {{currentTime}}s / {{duration}}s</li>
        <li>Volume: {{volume}}</li>
        <li>Buffered: {{buffered}}%</li>
        <li>Loading: {{loading}}</li>
        <li>Playing: {{playing}}</li>
    </ul>

</section>
</section>

Answer 1

video.currentTime = 10;

should set the time. I would create a function to set the time if you need to reset it elsewhere in the code like:

$scope.setCurrentTime = function(newTime) {
    video.currentTime = newTime;
};

Then, you can call it from a form or other code:

<button ng-click="setCurrentTime(30)">Set to 30</button>

or

if (some condition) {
    $scope.setCurrentTime(30);
}

or, you can bind the video volume to an input field (without the function):

<input id="videoTime" ng-model="video.currentTime" />

Hope that helps!
