Search in playlist


You can enable the search in the playlist via settings Plugins / Playlist / Search in playlist

A search bar will appear in the interface if the number of items in the playlist (or open folder) exceeds the specified limit (3 in the example below). The search bar will be displayed only when the playlist is placed vertically, including the drop-down list mode.

You can copy this template from the free library.

Via API

A playlist must contain a unique id for each file so that the player can find the desired one. For example

[
   {"title":"Serie 1","file":"//site.com/s1.mp4","id":"s1"},
   {"title":"Serie 2","file":"//site.com/s2.mp4","id":"s2"},
   {"title":"Serie 3","file":"//site.com/s3.mp4","id":"s3"}
]

Now you can find and open the file with JS API (the player will wait for the start)

player.api("find","s2");

You can immediately autostart playback (on mobile requires user action or mute)

player.api("play","id:s2");

You can run the file from the desired second by adding the seek command in square brackets

player.api("play","id:s2[seek:10]");

The query playlist_id returns the id of the active file

alert(player.api("playlist_id"));
