useGlobalPlayerSettings

useGlobalPlayerSettings() is the advanced page-level hook for shared controls.

This hook fans out to every mounted player scope. The new Lit <Video> does not register with the React player scope; use it only when you also have a scope-aware media element.

Signature

const settings = useGlobalPlayerSettings();

It returns shared values and fan-out actions for mounted players, including:

muted
volume
playbackRate
preferredQuality
preferredAudioLanguage
preferredSubtitleLanguage
setMuted(muted)
setVolume(volume)
setPlaybackRate(rate)
setPreferredQuality(quality)
setPreferredAudioLanguage(language)
setPreferredSubtitleLanguage(language)
pauseAll()

Example

import {VideoPlayer, useGlobalPlayerSettings} from "@rixl/media-react";

function PageLevelPlayerControls() {
  const {muted, setMuted, pauseAll} = useGlobalPlayerSettings();

  return (
    <div className="space-y-4">
      <div className="flex items-center gap-3">
        <button type="button" onClick={() => setMuted(!muted)}>
          {muted ? "Unmute all" : "Mute all"}
        </button>

        <button type="button" onClick={() => pauseAll()}>
          Pause all
        </button>
      </div>
    </div>
  );
}

function App() {
  return (
    <VideoPlayer>
      <PageLevelPlayerControls />
      {/* scope-aware media elements */}
    </VideoPlayer>
  );
}

Notes

This hook is for page-level coordination, not a replacement for player-scoped hooks.
Shared language preferences only apply when a mounted player exposes matching tracks.
For single-player custom UI, prefer the player-scoped hooks in this section.
