// preview image
<button ngfSelect accept="image/*"  [(file)]="imageFile" (fileChange)="changeImage()">
  select image
</button>
<div [ngfBackground]="imageFile"></div>

// play video ?
<button  ngfSelect accept="video/*" [(file)]="videoFile" (fileChange)="changeVideo()">
  select video
</button>

// this not working
<video controls autoplay >
  <source [ngfSrc]="videoFile">
</video>

@AckerApple i just want to play video with source file, because it takes too much time to upload videos to the server. Do you have a solution? thanks

Hey that’s not vanilla javascript

I’ve not had the need before to have a video preview during file upload so I do not off hand know what code to write. I know it’s not hard and docs exist it’s just I am busy elsewhere.

If you can build and example of how to use a selected file As a video preview or give me links to super easy docs, I can then implement into this package for tou

Make the world a better place and share me your solution or a link to where you learned how to do so I can implement in the future
