mux-data

Options for the Mux Data extension that monitors playback quality

Adds the Mux Data extension to the player. It renders nothing — place it anywhere inside the player, and it follows whatever media the player attaches. See Mux Data for how monitoring works.

Import

pnpm add @videojs/html @videojs/mux-data
import '@videojs/html/extensions/mux-data';

Or load it from the CDN:

<script type="module" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@videojs/cdn@10.0.1/extensions/mux-data.js"></script>

Anatomy

Options

Attribute Property Description
env-key envKey Mux Data environment key the beacons are sent to. Optional for Mux-hosted playback
— metadata Mux Data metadata for the view
player-software-name playerSoftwareName Player name reported to Mux Data
player-software-version playerSoftwareVersion Player version reported to Mux Data. Defaults to the Video.js version
player-init-time playerInitTime Epoch milliseconds the player was initialized. Defaults to when the player was created
beacon-collection-domain beaconCollectionDomain Custom domain the beacons are sent to
disable-cookies disableCookies Stops the SDK from setting cookies
debug debug Turns on SDK debug logging
— MuxDataSdk SDK used for monitoring. Set it to undefined to switch monitoring off

metadata and MuxDataSdk take objects, so they’re properties only, with no matching attribute. Set them on the element, typed as the MuxDataExtension class that @videojs/html/extensions/mux-data exports.

Changing MuxDataSdk, beaconCollectionDomain, debug, or disableCookies restarts monitoring, which ends the current view and starts a new one. The rest update the view in place.
