changing player-vars model

[Deleted user]

i have a button that toggles the loop option in the player-vars model but doesnt take effect unless it is loaded the first time. how can i make it so it is 2 way binding

unfortunately, with the underlying YouTube API, i'm not sure there's good way to make player-vars values update live

however, instead of the loop option, you could do something like this

$scope.$on('youtube.player.ended', function ($event, player) {
  if (options.shouldLoop) {
    // play it again
    player.playVideo()
  }
});

does that work for you?

ya i do a similar thing. but i write my function inside the angular-youtube-embed.js. if you put this inside the library it wuld make it easier . i have done my own fork though.

          function onPlayerStateChange(event) {
                /*.......*/
                if (state == 'ended') {
                    if(scope.playerVars.loop) {

                    scope.player.playVideo();
                    }
                }                    
                /*.......*/

            }

i'd recommend doing it outside the library, since you won't be able to take advantage of future versions of this library and bug fixes. i'm glad you got it working tho!
