Story block loading result callback
StoryBlock component provides onStoryBlockLoadFinished prop for setting video feed loading result callback.
<StoryBlock
  style={{ height: 400 }}
  source="discover"
  onStoryBlockLoadFinished={(error) => {
  /**
    * if error is undefined, it means that story block loaded successfully. 
    * Otherwise, it means that story block failed to load.
    */
  console.log('onStoryBlockLoadFinished error', error);
  }}
/>
Floating Player
You could set enablePictureInPicture to true to enable the floating player.
<StoryBlock
  style={{ height: 400 }}
  source="discover"
  enablePictureInPicture=true
/>
OS Picture in Picture
You also need to set enablePictureInPicture to true to enable the OS Picture in Picture.
<StoryBlock
  style={{ height: 400 }}
  source="discover"
  enablePictureInPicture=true
/>
This feature allows the user to watch media while the application is in a background state. While in background mode a video will display in a floating, resizable window.
Set up the iOS project
To enable OS Picture in Picture on the iOS side, you also need to add Background Modes capability via Signing & Capabilities in your iOS project settings. More information about this can be found here: Apple Documentation​
To use Picture in Picture, we configure the app to support background audio playback. See Configuring the Audio Playback of iOS and tvOS Apps for more details.
