  • you want to play different videos depending on the buttons clicked right ? You should add a little more texts to explain what you are expecting, and what is happening.

You could set .source attribute directly, this allows changing the player source and type on the fly.



Here is a full demo showing how to change the video dynamically, you could do the same thing with sound player. below is a snippet how to do it:



player.source = {
type: 'video',
title: 'Example title',
sources: [
{
src: '/path/to/movie.mp4',
type: 'video/mp4',
size: 720,
}
],
poster: '/path/to/poster.jpg'
};
