The react-native-theoplayer package provides a THEOplayerView component supporting video playback on the following platforms:

• Android, Android TV & FireTV
• iOS & tvOS (Apple TV)
• HTML5, Tizen & webOS (web, mobile web, smart TVs, set-top boxes and gaming consoles).

This document covers the creation of a minimal app including a THEOplayerView component, and an overview of the accompanying example app with a user interface provided by the @theoplayer/react-native-ui package.

It also gives a description of the properties of the THEOplayerView component, and a list of features and known limitations.

For each platform, a dependency to the corresponding THEOplayer SDK is included through a dependency manager:

• Gradle & Maven for Android
• Cocoapods for iOS
• npm for Web

In order to use one of these THEOplayer SDKs, it is necessary to obtain a valid THEOplayer license for that specific platform, i.e. HTML5, Android, and/or iOS. You can sign up for a THEOplayer SDK license through our portal.

If you have no previous experience in React Native, we encourage you to first explore the React Native Documentation, as it gives you a good start on one of the most popular app development frameworks.

These are guides on how to use the THEOplayer React Native SDK in your React Native project(s) and can be used linearly or by searching the specific section. It is recommended that you have a basic understanding of how React Native works to speed up the way of working with THEOplayer React Native SDK.

Depending on the platform on which the application is deployed, a different set of features is available.

If a feature missing, additional help is needed, or you need to extend the package, please reach out to us for support.
