Stop playing video in iframe when modal is closed
For multiple modals with iframe videos, here is the solution:
$('#myModal').on('hidden.bs.modal', function(e) {
var $iframes = $(e.target).find('iframe');
$iframes.each(function(index, iframe){
$(iframe).attr('src', $(iframe).attr('src'));
});
})
On modal close, it goes through all the iframe videos and resets them instead of resetting all of them to the first video.
I managed to get it to work with the link that @Leo provided. But it was slow as it reloaded the frame everytime the link was clicked. Tried @guillesalazar solution from Twitter Bootstrap Modal stop Youtube video and it worked perfectly. This was the solution I used.
$("#myModal").on('hidden.bs.modal', function (e) {
$("#myModal iframe").attr("src", $("#myModal iframe").attr("src"));
});
Well you can simply remove the src of the iframe and the put back again like ;
<iframe id="videosContainers" class="yvideo" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/kjsdaf ?>" w></iframe>
<span onclick="stopVideo(this.getAttribute('vdoId'))" vdoId ="yvideo" id="CloseModalButton" data-dismiss="modal"></span>
now the Jquery part
function stopVideo(id){
var src = $j('iframe.'+id).attr('src');
$j('iframe.'+id).attr('src','');
$j('iframe.'+id).attr('src',src);
}
You just need to stop the video on the hidden.bs.modal
event:
$('#myModal').on('hidden.bs.modal', function () {
player.stopVideo();
// or jQuery
$('#playerID').get(0).stopVideo();
// or remove video url
$('playerID').attr('src', '');
})
Here is a very similar (if not equal) to what you need to do: http://www.tutorialrepublic.com/codelab.php?topic=faq&file=play-youtube-video-in-bootstrap-modal
They do not use the iframe API so everytime they close the modal they just delete the video url .attr('src', '');
