<h3>HLS Player Plugin Usage</h3>
To embed a video, create a new post/page and use the following shortcode:
<pre><code>[hls_player url="https://example.com/path/to/video_playlist.m3u8"]
</code></pre>
Specify the “url” parameter with the location of the HLS video package file. Supported formats include .m3u8 (application/x-mpegURL), .mpd (application/dash+xml), and .mp4 (video/mp4).
<h4>Video Shortcode Options</h4>
<h3>General Options</h3>
class: Define the Video.js player’s CSS class (Default: video-js). Additional classes listed at https://videojs.com/guides/layout/#classes
<pre><code>[hls_player url="https://example.com/path/to/video_playlist.m3u8" class="video-js vjs-fluid vjs-16-9"]
</code></pre>
width: Defines the width of the video file.
<pre><code>[hls_player url="https://example.com/path/to/video_playlist.m3u8" width="480"]
</code></pre>
height: Defines the height of the video file.
<pre><code>[hls_player url="https://example.com/path/to/video_playlist.m3u8" height="264"]
</code></pre>
controls: Specify whether video controls should be displayed (Default: “true”). Use “false” to hide controls. When you disable controls users will not be able to interact with your videos. So It is recommended that you enable autoplay for a video with no controls.
<pre><code>[hls_player url="https://example.com/path/to/video_playlist.m3u8" controls="false"]
</code></pre>
preload: Specify how the video should be loaded when the page loads (Default: “auto”). Options include “metadata,” “none,” and “auto.” 
“metadata” – Load only the meta data of the video, which includes information like the duration and dimensions of the video. Sometimes, the meta data will be loaded by downloading a few frames of video. 
“none” – Don’t preload any data. The browser will wait until the user hits “play” to begin downloading.
<pre><code>[hls_player url="https://example.com/path/to/video_playlist.m3u8" preload="metadata"]
</code></pre>
autoplay: Cause the video to play automatically when the page loads. Instead of using the autoplay attribute you maybe need to pass an autoplay option to videojs_custom_options_json. https://videojs.com/guides/options/#autoplay
<pre><code>[hls_player url="https://example.com/path/to/video_playlist.m3u8" autoplay="true"]
</code></pre>
loop: Make the video loop to the beginning when finished and automatically continue playing.
<pre><code>[hls_player url="https://example.com/path/to/video_playlist.m3u8" loop="true"]
</code></pre>
poster: Define an image as a placeholder before the video plays.
<pre><code>[hls_player url="https://example.com/path/to/video_playlist.m3u8" poster="http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/poster.jpg"]
</code></pre>
muted: Specify that the audio output of the video should be muted.
<pre><code>[hls_player url="https://example.com/path/to/video_playlist.m3u8" muted="true"]
</code></pre>
captions: Add captions or subtitles to the video in multiple languages. Provide the captions in the format:
<pre><code>"path/to/captions1.vtt|lang1|label1|default,path/to/captions2.vtt|lang2|label2"
</code></pre>
path/to/captions: The URL or path to the VTT file containing the subtitles. 
lang: The two-character language code, followed by a hyphen and an optional country code (e.g., en, de, en-US, de-DE). 
label: A user-friendly label for the caption (e.g., “English”, “German”). 
default: (Optional) Use this keyword to specify which caption should be enabled by default when the video is loaded.
<pre><code>[hls_player url="https://example.com/path/to/video_playlist.m3u8" captions="https://example.com/path/to/captions-en.vtt|en-EN|English|default,https://example.com/path/topath/to/captions-de.vtt|de-de|German"]
</code></pre>
videojs_custom_options_json: JSON format string for custom options (https://videojs.com/guides/options/) for the video.js player.
<pre><code>[hls_player url="https://example.com/path/to/video_playlist.m3u8" videojs_custom_options_json='{"autoplay": "muted"}']
or
