Method Detail

- (void) loadFromUrl: (NSURL *)  videoUrl

Load a local or remote video from a url and start playing.

The video is assumed to be of type ::kGVRVideoTypeMono.

- (void) loadFromUrl: (NSURL *)  videoUrl
ofType: (GVRVideoType)  videoType 

Load a local or remote video from a url and start playing.

The video type is set by videoType.

- (void) pause

Pause the video.

- (void) play

Start or resume the video.

- (void) stop

Stop the video.

- (NSTimeInterval) duration

Get the duration of the video.

- (NSTimeInterval) playableDuration

Gets the playable duration of the buffered video.

- (void) seekTo: (NSTimeInterval)  position

Seek to the target time position of the video.

+ (void) setViewerParamsFromUrl: (NSURL *)  url
withCompletion: (void(^)(BOOL success, NSError *error))  completion 

Sets the Cardboard viewer parameters from a Url.

This allows programmatically pairing a viewer without having the user go through the pairing flow. Calls the supplied completion handler with the result of pairing and the error if it fails.

Note: The viewer parameters can be set only if no other viewer pairing exists. In other words, this only works if the user hasn't already paired a viewer for the current application.

A valid viewer parameters URI can be generated from this page: https://www.google.com/get/cardboard/viewerprofilegenerator/

Property Detail

- (float) volume
readwritenonatomicassign

Defines a volume multiplier between 0.0f and 1.0f on the media audio playback.

This setting persists across multiple videos. 0.0f means muted, while 1.0f means regular volume. Default value is 1.0f.

readwritenonatomicweakinherited

The delegate that is called when the widget view is loaded.

- (BOOL) enableInfoButton
readwritenonatomicassigninherited

Displays a button that allows the user to get more information about VRView.

- (BOOL) hidesTransitionView
readwritenonatomicassigninherited

Hides the transition view when entering VR mode.

- (BOOL) enableTouchTracking
readwritenonatomicassigninherited

Enables touch gesture detection for manual heading control.

Regardless of how this is set, touch tracking is disabled in fullscreen VR mode.

- (GVRHeadRotation) headRotation
readnonatomicassigninherited

The current head rotation corresponding to where the user is looking.

- (GVRWidgetDisplayMode) displayMode
readwritenonatomicassigninherited

Changing the value of this property is similar to pressing one of the fullscreen, cardboard or back UI buttons.
