autoLabel :string

Default: 'Auto'

This option lets you rename the string value that represents the auto bitrate selection system.

  'autoLabel': 'ABR' // Change the label from 'Auto' (default) to 'ABR'.
});

defaultQuality :number

This option lets you control which level of quality is selected first.

0 = Default Behaviour (The default from playlist), 1 = Lowest (Start the video with the lowest quality stream selected), 2 = Highest (Start the video with the highest quality stream selected)

var player = videojs('my-video');
player.maxQualitySelector({
  'defaultQuality': 2 // Make the video start playing at the highest quality possible
});

disableAuto :boolean

Note: This option is ignored if you override the quality level with a label in DefaultOptions.labels

var player = videojs('my-video');
player.maxQualitySelector({
  'displayMode': 1 // Only render out the height name of the video in the quality button and list
});

This option enabled the filtering of duplicate quality levels when their height all match.

Tip: This is useful if you want to avoid showing different bitrates to users.

Usage

⚠ Warning: ⚠ For versions of VideoJS 7 and below, we require the https://github.com/videojs/videojs-contrib-quality-levels plugin to be included before ours.

To include videojs-max-quality-selector on your website or web application, use any of the following methods.

<link> & <script> Tag

This is the simplest case. Get the script in whatever way you prefer and include the plugin after you include [video.js][videojs], so that the videojs global is available.

<link src="//path/to/videojs-max-quality-selector.css" rel="stylesheet">
<script src="//path/to/video.min.js"></script>
<script src="//path/to/videojs-contrib-quality-levels.min.js"></script>
<script src="//path/to/videojs-max-quality-selector.min.js"></script>
<script>
  var player = videojs('my-video');

  player.maxQualitySelector();
</script>

Browserify/CommonJS

When using with Browserify, install videojs-max-quality-selector via npm and require the plugin as you would any other module.

var videojs = require('video.js');

// The actual plugin function is exported by this module, but it is also
// attached to the `Player.prototype`; so, there is no need to assign it
// to a variable.
require('videojs-max-quality-selector');

var player = videojs('my-video');

player.maxQualitySelector();

RequireJS/AMD

When using with RequireJS (or another AMD library), get the script in whatever way you prefer and require the plugin as you normally would:

require(['video.js', 'videojs-max-quality-selector'], function(videojs) {
  var player = videojs('my-video');

  player.maxQualitySelector();
});
