var titles, subtitles, customData, options;

titles = {
   'https://example.com/videos/video-1.mp4': 'Example Title',
   'https://example.com/videos/video-2.mp4': 'Example Title2',
};

subtitles = {
   'https://example.com/videos/video-1.mp4': 'Subtitle',
   'https://example.com/videos/video-2.mp4': 'Subtitle2',
};

customData = {
   'https://example.com/videos/video-1.mp4': { 'customColor': '#0099ee' },
   'https://example.com/videos/video-2.mp4': { 'customColor': '#000080' },
};

options = {
   // Must specify the 'chromecast' Tech first
   techOrder: [ 'chromecast', 'html5' ], // Required
   // Configuration for the Chromecast Tech
   chromecast: {
      requestTitleFn: function(source) { // Not required
         return titles[source.url];
      },
      requestSubtitleFn: function(source) { // Not required
         return subtitles[source.url];
      },
      requestCustomDataFn: function(source) { // Not required
         return customData[source.url];
      },
      modifyLoadRequestFn: function (loadRequest) { // HLS support
         loadRequest.media.hlsSegmentFormat = 'fmp4';
         loadRequest.media.hlsVideoSegmentFormat = 'fmp4';
         return loadRequest;
      }
   },
   plugins: {
      chromecast: {
         receiverAppID: '1234' // Not required
         addButtonToControlBar: false, // Defaults to true
      },
   }
};
```

### Initialize Chromecast Plugin with NPM

Source: https://github.com/silvermine/videojs-chromecast/blob/master/README.md

Demonstrates how to install and require the videojs-chromecast NPM module and register it with Video.js using a module loader like Webpack or Browserify.

```javascript
var videojs = require('video.js');

// Initialize the Chromecast plugin
require('@silvermine/videojs-chromecast')(videojs);
```

--------------------------------

### Initialize with require() Options

Source: https://github.com/silvermine/videojs-chromecast/blob/master/README.md

Demonstrates how to pass initialization options to the videojs-chromecast plugin when requiring it via NPM.

```javascript
require('@silvermine/videojs-chromecast')(videojs, { preloadWebComponents: true });
```

--------------------------------

### Initialize with Script Tag Options

Source: https://github.com/silvermine/videojs-chromecast/blob/master/README.md

Shows how to set initialization options using a global configuration object (`SILVERMINE_VIDEOJS_CHROMECAST_CONFIG`) before loading the plugin via a script tag.

```html
<script>
   window.SILVERMINE_VIDEOJS_CHROMECAST_CONFIG = {
      preloadWebComponents: true,
   };
</script>
<script src="path/to/silvermine-videojs-chromecast.js"></script>
```

--------------------------------

### Manual Plugin Initialization

Source: https://github.com/silvermine/videojs-chromecast/blob/master/README.md

Illustrates how to manually initialize the videojs-chromecast plugin on an existing Video.js player instance.

```javascript
var player = videojs(document.getElementById('myVideoElement'));

player.chromecast(); // initializes the Chromecast plugin
```

--------------------------------

### Initialize Video.js with Chromecast

Source: https://github.com/silvermine/videojs-chromecast/blob/master/docs/demo/index.html

This snippet demonstrates how to initialize Video.js with the Chromecast technology. It configures player options, including enabling fluid mode and setting the technology order, before invoking the Chromecast plugin on the player instance.

```javascript
var options;
options = {
  fluid: true,
  techOrder: [ 'chromecast', 'html5' ],
};
videojs('video_1', options, function() {
  var player = this;
  player.chromecast();
});
```

--------------------------------

### Configure preloadWebComponents Option

Source: https://github.com/silvermine/videojs-chromecast/blob/master/README.md

Explains the `preloadWebComponents` initialization option for the videojs-chromecast plugin. Setting this to `true` helps resolve race conditions with jQuery and the webcomponents.js polyfill, especially when using jQuery. Note that this option may affect the functionality of the `<google-cast-button>` custom component if used elsewhere.

```javascript
videojs('my-video', {
  // ... other options
  chromecast: {
    preloadWebComponents: true
  }
});
```

--------------------------------

### Include VideoJS, Chromecast Plugin, and Sender Script

Source: https://github.com/silvermine/videojs-chromecast/blob/master/README.md

Demonstrates the correct order for including the Video.js library, the Silvermine Chromecast plugin's JavaScript file, and the Google Cast sender framework script in an HTML page. This ensures all dependencies are loaded before initialization.

```html
<script src="https://unpkg.com/video.js@6.1.0/dist/video.js"></script>
<script src="./dist/silvermine-videojs-chromecast.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.gstatic.com/cv/js/sender/v1/cast_sender.js?loadCastFramework=1"></script>
```

### Plugin Configuration Options

Source: https://github.com/silvermine/videojs-chromecast/blob/master/README.md

Details the available configuration options for the videojs-chromecast plugin, covering custom receiver app IDs, control bar integration, and button positioning.

```apidoc
Plugin Configuration Options:

  plugins.chromecast.receiverAppID
    - Type: string
    - Description: The string ID of a custom Chromecast receiver app to use. Defaults to the default Media Receiver ID.

  plugins.chromecast.addButtonToControlBar
    - Type: boolean
    - Description: A flag that tells the plugin whether or not it should automatically add the Chromecast button to the Video.js player's control bar component. Defaults to true.

  plugins.chromecast.buttonPositionIndex
    - Type: number
    - Description: A zero-based number specifying the index of the Chromecast button among the control bar's child components (if addButtonToControlBar is set to true). By default the Chromecast Button is added as the last child of the control bar. A value less than 0 puts the button at the specified position from the end of the control bar. Note that it's likely not all child components of the control bar are visible.

  plugins.chromecast.addCastLabelToButton
    - Type: boolean
    - Default: false
    - Description: By default, the Chromecast button component will display only an icon. Setting addCastLabelToButton to true will display a label titled "Cast" alongside the default icon.
```

2. "Cast"
   - Usage: Appears in an optional label within the Button component, inside the `.vjs-chromecast-button-label` span.

Localization Process:
  - Follow the Video.js Languages tutorial to add these strings as keys to your translation maps.
