MediaStream: active property
Baseline
Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since September 2017.
The active read-only property of the
MediaStream interface returns a Boolean value which is
true if the stream is currently active; otherwise, it returns
false. A stream is considered active if at least one of
its MediaStreamTracks does not have its property MediaStreamTrack.readyState
set to ended. Once every track has ended, the stream's active property becomes
false.
Value
A Boolean value which is true if the stream is currently active;
otherwise, the value is false.
Examples
In this example, a new stream whose source is the user's local camera and microphone is
requested using getUserMedia(). When that
stream becomes available (that is, when the returned Promise is fulfilled,
a button on the page is updated based on whether or not the stream is currently active.
js
const promise = navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({
audio: true,
video: true,
});
promise.then((stream) => {
const startBtn = document.querySelector("#startBtn");
startBtn.disabled = stream.active;
});
