Hello @pork1977
It’s me again 
I have a quick question this time, is there a way to use Mux Video Player within your plugin in any way possible? Just similar to how you have “Use YouTube Player”, “Use Vimeo Player”, and the “Use Wistia Player” options.
I think that would be very useful. And if there’s no way right now, do you have any plans on adding this feature? I know I’ll be one of the people that’ll use it extensively.
Just imagine building a custom Mux player over there and then using the native plugin features to track the current time, playback, etc without the need to fill the page with HTML and API calls!
Hi, yeh so I’ve thought about doing that but it’s a lot of work because of all the other integrations with states, events and code not working. The plug-in is built around videoJS mainly and the MUX player has a completely different API. It would better having the MUX player as a separate plug-in, which I may do actually after I’ve finished a new video chat one I’m currently working on.
I’m confused, how are you screen recording using the player?
Oh I understand, I don’t want you to overwork yourself! You’re doing an amazing job.
I’ll keep lurking on your plugins page and will definitely use it when it’s out, because right now I am using HTML elements and the Javascript toolbox plugin to have Mux player on a specific page and retrieve its states -not very optimal!

I am trying to prevent users from recording using the screen capture tool from any OS. In functionality for example, netflix hides the video when you are screen capturing.
But i am seeing that the correct solution involves a DRM wrapping extensions of the files and compatible players. I will try to chat with mux about this.
The screen capture tool is a program that’s not part of the browser I presume? If it is, then I don’t think you’ll be able to disable access to that through browser code. Send me a screenshot of what it looks like.
Hey Paul,
I’ve read through everything and can’t find an answer, tried looking on the editor too but hoping this is just a dumb question you can answer quickly.
I’m recording using the recorded but I can’t get hte upload to work. I have a simple api to send a video but for some reason I can’t get the videoJSrecorder’s URL, ive tried setting states etc to see what’s going on?
How do I get the URL so that I can send it?

Hi @john40
Give me a bit, I’m going through the MUX upload process at the moment. I’ll make it easier to upload from the recorder straight into MUX. It’s way too complicated at the moment.
Right now, to allow for a specific recording to be uploaded to MUX from the recorder, you have to upload the recording to S3 and then pull that URL and pass it into the “Create asset (MUX)” request. It’s like a double upload and then you probably want to delete the S3 file afterwards.
I’m going to make some changes to the “Upload media to MUX” action. I’ll rewrite the documentation info in there because it’s just awful! and allow it to upload the last successful recording from the recorder more easily.
I need a good few hours on it so leave it for a bit and I’ll let you know when it’s ready, I’ll try not to keep you waiting for too long.

Legend cheers mate!
I’m not actually using the “upload media to mux” I’m using our own API call (as we already had it built).
I’m just struggling with getting the URL to put into that API call, is videorecorders URL meant to just show the URL?
Even when I try and save it to s3 I can’t seem too
No problems. So that state (videoRecorders URL) references an S3 URL which you get after it’s been uploaded to S3. It’s actually set inside the “Upload recording” action. You could take that URL and pass it directly to the endpoint called “Create asset (MUX)” then it should get uploaded to MUX that way.
legend got it thanks
Great.
I’ve just made some changes to the “Upload local media to MUX” action so that can now be used to upload the last recording directly to MUX without you having to upload it to S3 first. The doc fields have also been re-written so hopefully it’s a little clearer to understand now.
This demo page show’s how it works (the manual button)

Hey Paul,
Can you add the ability to view X videos (Twitter)?
example live video…
Also, are you for hire in setting up video capture on MUX? I would love to allow users to go live and create highlight clips for our sports app… but I just haven’t had time yet.
Thanks,
Jude
Hi there, I don’t think this will be easily done for Twitter. I took a look and they don’t expose the things needed to load the video through videoJS. It would have to be a hack which would be subject to break in the future. If Twitter provide a way to expose the raw video files then I could possible add something into the plugin to make them load.
I get the Vimeo files through means of a scraper service which then gives me the video to play through videoJS, but when I try scraping a Twitter URL, all I get returned is a message saying it’s not allowed. Twitter are a big company, I’d be surprised if this was possible to do.
