How many load states of Titanium video player's have and the meanings each of them? - titanium

Question

guys! I need your help! Recently, I'm trying to add the loadstate event listener to the video player, however, when I'm console the event evt to check the load state I found there're different kinds in IOS and Android platform and unexpected, the state meanings are different too. As far as I known,
Android load states video player only have two kinds: 0 and 1
① the 0 load state seems like preloading
② the 1 load state seems like can play normally
IOS load states of video player have four kinds: 1, 2, 3 and 5
I only know that the state 5 comes when the network is not connect
Here is my code:
var activityIndicator = Ti.UI.createActivityIndicator({
visible: false,
width: Ti.UI.SIZE,
height: Ti.UI.SIZE,
message: 'loading...'
});
videoPlayer.addEventListener('loadstate', function(evt){
console.info('---------load state---------');
console.info(evt.loadState);
if(evt.loadState == 5){
activityIndicator.show();
}
});
I had checked the API, however there's no answer. Anyone of you have a good knowledge about it? Thanks in advance!

Welcome.

OK, maybe I misunderstood the question, sorry. In the latest version of Titanium SDK, the API talks with the native iOS class MPMoviePlayerController, then you can check the loadState directly in the Apple documentation
enum {
MPMovieLoadStateUnknown = 0,
MPMovieLoadStatePlayable = 1 << 0,
MPMovieLoadStatePlaythroughOK = 1 << 1,
MPMovieLoadStateStalled = 1 << 2,
};
typedef NSInteger MPMovieLoadState;
Also, you can check Android MediaPlayer API documentation
If you have more interested about the implementation, remember, we are open-source hehe, then take a while examining directly on the Titanium SDK repository -> here

Well, while the videoPlayer API has not been normalised (maybe will not), you can simple manage this issue creating a conditional flow, e.g:
videoPlayer.addEventListener('loadstate', function(evt){
if(OS_IOS){...}
else if(OS_ANDROID){...}
else {...}
});
