Tags and parameters

oui_twitch vs oui_player

While the <txp:oui_player /> tag is able to embed any video from any extension-related provider, the <txp:oui_twitch /> tag is a shortcut to embed Twitch videos only. It is strictly equivalent to <txp:oui_player provider="twitch" />.

Check the oui_player documentation for more informations.

Recognised values for the play attribute

• vID;
• http(s)://(www.)twitch.tv/…/v/ID (video);
• http(s)://(www.)twitch.tv/ID (channel);
• http(s)://twitch.go.com/…/video/…*ID*.

When using the oui_player tag (vs oui_twitch), the right provider needs to be set if the play value or its field related one is an ID. It is optional, but can fasten the rendering, if the value is an URL.

Player customization

Preferences vs attributes

While some player customization elements, related to the media to play, should be used through attributes, these used as global settings should preferrably be set through the plugin preferences to avoid a massive use of tag attributes.

Of course, it is still possible to override a preference value via an attribute when needed.

Size

width

Integer; initially set to 620;
The width of the player in pixels.

height

Integer; initially set to 378;
The height of the player in pixels.

ratio

Integer:integer; initially not set;
The ratio used to calculate the missing value for the width or the height.

responsive

true or false; initially set to false.
Adapts the final player size from the provided width and/or height and/or ratio values to fit the container width.
Wraps the player and adds some styles.

Parameters (a→z)

From Txp 4.7, paramaters accepting true and false as valid values can be enable through boolean/valueless attributes.

true or false; initially set to true.
Whether to play after loading or not.
