Implement seeking

  1. Listen for the playback seeking events from the media player, and on seek start event notification, track seeking using the SeekStart event:

    _onSeekStart = function() {
    this._mediaHeartbeat.trackEvent(MediaHeartbeat.Event.SeekStart);
};

  2. On seek complete notification from the media player, track the end of seeking using the SeekComplete event:

    _onSeekComplete = function() {
    this._mediaHeartbeat.trackEvent(MediaHeartbeat.Event.SeekComplete);
};

See the tracking scenario VOD playback with seeking in the main content for more information.
