How are video players integrated with streaming apps?

There are two major approaches

1) Frame based approach- In this approach,  the video player SDK remains in the partner site, the site developer only calls a link with parameters to play the API

2) SDK based approach- In an SDK based approach, the SDK is integrated into the streaming player

a)  Web SDK-

-Addition of SDK library to HTML page

- Add a placeholder div with an ID attribute where the player needs to be injected

- Use player() methods to call player instance

b) Mobile SDK

- Integrate SDK by calling application build.gradle file

- Player web view- Main SDK components that allows to load videos into the android environment

- Initialize player using load() method

- Media controller makes API calls to player e.g. load(), Initialize(), play(), pause()

- Media session states e.g. API ready, Start event

-Embed API- Turn website into structured data set,  making it easy to embed and share content

-Player customization

c) Ad integration:

- Integration with ad parameters with custom parameters

-Dynamically pass information to VAST logs

-Set Ads config and Syndication keys
