This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.

Note: This feature is available in Dedicated Web Workers.

The timestamp read-only property of the EncodedVideoChunk interface returns an integer indicating the timestamp of the video in microseconds.

Value

An integer.

Examples

In the following example the timestamp is printed to the console.

const init = {
  type: "key",
  data: videoBuffer,
  timestamp: 23000000,
  duration: 2000000,
};
const chunk = new EncodedVideoChunk(init);
console.log(chunk.timestamp); // 23000000
