Playing with Multiple Videos

Abstract

Inevitably, you’ll be asked to work not only with one video but also with many videos. The question then becomes how to present them. This chapter shows you a number of ways of managing the playback of multiple video files. Ranging from simply embedding the call to the video in a button to using XML to manage multiple videos, you will learn a variety of techniques. The most important thing you will learn, though, is this: there is no best way of managing the playback of multiple videos. Why? The reason is simple: when users select a video, they don’t care how it got there. They simply expect their selection to play.
