    successCallback: function(obj) {
      console.log("Video was closed without error at " + obj.pos + ".");
    },
    progressCallback: function(obj) {
      // obj.action may be "start", "stop", or "pause"
      // obj.pos is the current time in the clip (only available for non-continuous streams)
      //   and shows a format of "00:12:34"
      myAnalytics.track(obj.action, obj.pos);

    }
  };
  window.plugins.vitamio.playVideo(videoUrl, options);

  var audioUrl = STREAMING_AUDIO_URL;

  // Simply play an audio file (not recommended, since the screen will be plain black)
  window.plugins.vitamio.playAudio(audioUrl);

  // Play an audio file with options (all options optional)
  var options = {
