A NativeScript plugin to provide the ability to play local and remote videos.

            Sample 1             |              Sample 2

-------------------------------------| ------------------------------------- |

From your command prompt/terminal go to your app's root folder and execute:

tns plugin add nativescript-videoplayer

<Page xmlns="http://schemas.nativescript.org/tns.xsd"
      xmlns:VideoPlayer="nativescript-videoplayer">
        <StackLayout>
               
            <VideoPlayer:Video id="nativeVideoPlayer"
            controls="true" finished="{{ videoFinished }}"
            loop="true" autoplay="false" height="280" 
            src="~/videos/big_buck_bunny.mp4" />

            <!-- Remote file to test with https://clips.vorwaerts-gmbh.de/big_buck_bunny.mp4 -->
            
        </StackLayout>
</Page>

// somewhere at top of your component or bootstrap file
import {registerElement} from "nativescript-angular/element-registry";
registerElement("VideoPlayer", () => require("nativescript-videoplayer").Video);
// documentation: https://docs.nativescript.org/angular/plugins/angular-third-party.html#simple-elements

With AngularNative you have to explicitly close all components so the correct template code is below.

  <VideoPlayer
      src="https://clips.vorwaerts-gmbh.de/big_buck_bunny.mp4"
      autoplay="true" 
      height="300"></VideoPlayer>
