xgplayer
A HTML5 video player with a parser that saves traffic
xgplayer is a web-friendly, open-source media player library maintained by ByteDance, designed for playing audio/video streams in browsers or web applications with robust control, flexibility, and extensibility. It abstracts many of the lower-level complexities of HTML5 media, providing a consistent API for playback control, custom UI overlays, adaptive streaming, plugin hooks, and cross-browser compatibility. Because of its emphasis on modularity and extensibility, xgplayer can be embedded into modern web projects and customized — developers can add controls, custom buffering strategies, subtitle handling, adaptive bitrate streaming, or integrate with other web-based video infrastructures. It seeks to provide a smooth, stable viewing experience even on varied devices or network conditions, and is particularly appealing for web apps that need more control than vanilla video tags offer.
