MediaStreamEvent()

This is an experimental technology
Because this technology's specification has not stabilized, check the compatibility table for the proper prefixes to use in various browsers. Also note that the syntax and behavior of an experimental technology is subject to change in future versions of browsers as the spec changes.

The MediaStreamEvent() constructor creates a new MediaStreamEvent.

Syntax

 var event = new MediaStreamEvent(type, mediaStreamEventInit);

Values

type
Is a DOMString containing the name of the event, like addstream or removestream.
mediaStreamEventInit
Is a MediaStreamEventInit dictionary, having the following fields:
  • "stream" of type MediaStream representing the stream being concerned by the event.
  • "bubbles", optional and defaulting to false, inherited from EventInit, and indicating if the event must bubble or not.
  • "cancelable", optional and defaulting to false, inherited from EventInit, and indicating if the event can be canceled or not.

Example

// s is a MediaStream 
var event = new MediaStreamEvent("addstrem", {"stream": s});
