Hello,
I'm trying to use a simple Javascript to call a function of the local IP address of a host for a video player that auto-updates its IP address whenever the user modifies the IP of the Host.
I've been using the Built-in HTML 5 player to play an Apple HLS video that streams from the host and it works but I want to dynamically update the video src using the javascript.
I hope this makes sense.
The code has ive been trying to piece together looks like this:
function myFunction() {
var hostip = location.host;
document.getElementById("videohls").innerHTML = hostip ;
this gets the host IP: 192.168.0.1 example.
I need to take this IP and combine it with http:// + hostip + /1.m3u8
That output needs to be the HTML5 players src
How can I make this possible? I feel like its really simple but I'm not a javascript expert at all.
