Implement buffering

  1. Listen for the playback buffering events from media player, and on buffer start event notification, track buffering using the BufferStart event.

    _onBufferStart = function() {
    tracker.trackEvent(ADB.Media.Event.BufferStart);
};

  2. On buffer complete notification from the media player, track the end of buffering using the BufferComplete event.

    _onBufferComplete = function() {
    tracker.trackEvent(ADB.Media.Event.BufferComplete);
};

See the tracking scenario VOD playback with buffering for more information.
