Code of the example

The path to the source code of the example on WCS server is:

/usr/local/FlashphonerWebCallServer/client2/examples/demo/streaming/2players

2players.css - file with styles
2players.html - page with web interface
2players.js - script providing functionality for the example

This example can be tested using the following address:

https://host:8888/client2/examples/demo/streaming/2players/2players.html

Here host is the address of the WCS server.

Work with code of the player

To analyze the code, let's take the version of file 2players.js with hash cf0daabc6b86e21d5a2f9e4605366c8b7f0d27eb, which is available here and can be downloaded with corresponding build 0.3.18.1894.

Functions of initialization, creating stream, starting and stopping playback work the same as described in the example Player.

For work with two windows for playback of video, in web interface 2players.html two <div> elements are created:

line 31

<div id="player1" class="display"></div>

line 48

<div id="player2" class="display"></div>

Then element ID is used to get the required element. line 60

var display = document.getElementById("player" + index);

The element is passed as parameter 'display' when the stream for playback is created. line 61

session.createStream({
        name: streamName,
        display: display
    })

So, for each stream <div> element 'display' can be passed, and any number of video streams can be played on one HTML page.
