Quick Start
Below is a list of simple OvenPlayer initialization methods for each situation. For detailed options when initializing the OvenPlayer, please refer to the Initialization chapter.
Basic Concept
HTML
You need an HTML element where the OvenPlayer will be initialized.
<div id="player_id" class=""></div>
Specifying the size or position of the player is possible by changing the style of the wrapper element.
<!-- Wrapper element for sizing or positioning the player -->
<div class="player-wrapper">
    <!-- OvenPlayer will be initialized inside this element. -->
    <div id="player_id"></div>
</div>
The width of the OvenPlayer is set equal to the width of the container. So with style below, the OvenPlayer will have a width of 1280px.
.player-wrapper {
    margin: 0 auto;
    width: 1280px;
}
JavaScript
You can import ovenplayer.js and initialize OvenPlayer by calling OvenPlayer.create() as shown below:
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/ovenplayer.js"></script>
​
<script>
    // Initialize OvenPlayer
    const player = OvenPlayer.create('player_id', options)
</script>
Alternatively, you can use OvenPlayer as an ES6 module as follows:
import OvenPlayer from 'ovenplayer';
​
// Initialize OvenPlayer
const player = OvenPlayer.create('player_id', options)
Initialize for OME
To play Sub-Second Latency Stream of OvenMediaEngine, set the source type to webrtcand set the file to the WebRTC Signaling URL with OvenMediaEngine. An explanation of the WebRTC Signaling URL can be found here.
