Control skip and rewinds with the keyboard

To enable skipping and rewinding for your viewers by using the arrow keys, just add this code to the page where your video is embedded, BELOW the video code.

*Remember to change the 'vidalytics_embed_XXXXXXX' with your own embed ID.

<script>

var EMBED_CODE_ID = 'vidalytics_embed_XXXXXXX';

var vidalyticsPlayerAPI = null; function initializePlayerAPI() {
console.log('initializePlayerAPI()');
var player = getPlayer();
if (player._player) { 
vidalyticsPlayerAPI = player;
onPlayerAPIAvailableCallback();
return;
} 

setTimeout(initializePlayerAPI, 100);
}

initializePlayerAPI(); function getPlayer() {
console.log('getPlayer()');
var embeds = (window._vidalytics || {}).embeds || {};
if (embeds[EMBED_CODE_ID]) { 
return embeds[EMBED_CODE_ID].player || {};
}

return {};
} 

function onPlayerAPIAvailableCallback() {
console.log("onPlayerAPIAvailableCallback()");
document.onkeydown = checkKey;
} function checkKey(e) {
e = e || window.event;
if (e.keyCode == '37') {
var newTime = Math.max(vidalyticsPlayerAPI.getCurrentVideoTime() - 7, 0);
vidalyticsPlayerAPI.seekTo(newTime);
} 

else if (e.keyCode == '39') {
var newTime = Math.min(vidalyticsPlayerAPI.getCurrentVideoTime() + 7, vidalyticsPlayerAPI._player.getDuration());
vidalyticsPlayerAPI.seekTo(newTime);
}
} </script>
