[Turbe$Z]

I created a youtube player, and i want to remove the event handler, when the music ends, but i dont know how to get the song length from web browser... anyone can help?

I think it is not possible, because you can't execute javascript in remote browsers.

It may be possible if using fetchRemote with youtube's API

Ohh.. it's a good idea. 

 

local apiKey = "censored" -- How to get own: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pP4zvduVAqo
local browser = createBrowser(500, 500, false)


function receiveData(result)
	local data = fromJSON(result)
	local isoDuration = data.items[1].contentDetails.duration
	local min, sec = isoDuration:match("^.-(%d+)M(%d+)S") -- this pattern work only with minimum 1 min, and maximum 1 hour videos

	setTimer(function()
		removeEventHandler("onClientRender", root, render)	
	end, (min*60 + sec) * 1000, 1)
end

function render()
	dxDrawImage(0, 0, 500, 500, browser)
end


addEventHandler("onClientBrowserCreated", browser, function()
	local url = "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NLb-gZNKzT8"
	local id = url:match("%?v=(...........)") -- maybe need a better pattern :'D
	
	loadBrowserURL(source, url)
	addEventHandler("onClientRender", root, render)

	fetchRemote("https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/videos?part=contentDetails&id="..id.."&key="..apiKey, receiveData)
end)
