I am trying to put some YouTube embedded videos into a FlexSlider Carousel / Slider. The issue I am having is to have the video stop if the slide is not in view. Currently, if you play the video and select a new video, the previous one keeps playing.
Expected: On slide change, stop the video. Actual: On slide change, the video keeps playing.
HTML:
<section class="videolist">
<div class="container">
<div id="slider" class="flexslider">
<ul class="slides">
<li>
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/xcJtL7QggTI" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</li>
<li><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/a3ICNMQW7Ok" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>

</ul>
</div>
<div id="carousel" class="flexslider">
<ul class="slides">
<li> <img src="https://quidsup.net/wallpaper/abstract/the-cube-1920x1080-wallpaper-5189.jpg" alt="This is the alt text of the video"> </li>

<li> <img src="https://i.redd.it/vjcavsc1lcs11.jpg" alt="This is the alt text of the video"> </li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</section>
JS:
$(window).load(function() {
$('#carousel').flexslider({
animation: "slide",
controlNav: false,
animationLoop: false,
slideshow: false,
itemWidth: 210,
itemMargin: 5,
asNavFor: '#slider'
});
$('#slider').flexslider({
animation: "slide",
controlNav: false,
animationLoop: false,
slideshow: false,
sync: "#carousel"
});
});
I have a codepen up here YouTube FlexSlider Carousel | Codepen
Any ideas how to accomplish this?
Thanks
With help, it was figured out by adding in some js.
$(window).load(function() {
$('#carousel').flexslider({
animation: "slide",
controlNav: false,
animationLoop: false,
slideshow: false,
itemWidth: 210,
itemMargin: 5,
asNavFor: '#slider',
start: function() {
$('#carousel li').on('click', function(e){
stopVideos();
});
$('#carousel li').on('click', function(e){
stopVideos();
});
}
});
$('#slider').flexslider({
animation: "slide",
controlNav: false,
animationLoop: false,
slideshow: false,
sync: "#carousel",
start: function() {
$('.flex-next').on('click', function(e){
stopVideos();
});
$('.flex-prev').on('click', function(e){
stopVideos();
});
}
});
});
function stopVideos() {
$('.iframe-vid').each(function() {
this.contentWindow.postMessage('{"event":"command","func":"pauseVideo","args":""}', '*')
});
}
