Picture in picture (PiP)

What you learn​

You're instantiating DIVA Player in your web front-end and relying on third party video streaming source.

The goal of this article is to build the simplest front-end to stream a video from your video production with enabled PiP view.

Before starting​

  • Ensure the video production you rely on is up and running.
  • Set the videoId and the related setting configuration.

Instantiation​

Enrich the Basic instantiation code with

  • videoId as a two-element array: it must contain the video ids of the two videos to play picture in picture.
  • multiviewMode added into the config parameter. multiviewMode must value pip.

Working sample code (.tsx)​

// DIVA Player SDK
import { DivaWebComponent } from "@deltatre-vxp/diva-sdk/diva-web-sdk";
import type { DivaConfiguration, VideoMetadata, VideoMetadataClean } from "@deltatre-vxp/diva-sdk/diva-web-sdk";
// Import SDK style
import "@deltatre-vxp/diva-sdk/diva-web-sdk/index.min.css";
