handle property

MediaSourceHandle get handle

The handle read-only property of the MediaSource interface returns a MediaSourceHandle object, a proxy for the MediaSource that can be transferred from a dedicated worker back to the main thread and attached to a media element via its HTMLMediaElement.srcObject property.

Note: handle is only visible on MediaSource instances inside dedicated workers.

Each MediaSource object created inside a dedicated worker has its own distinct MediaSourceHandle. The handle getter will always return the MediaSourceHandle instance specific to the associated dedicated worker MediaSource instance. If the handle has already been transferred to the main thread using DedicatedWorkerGlobalScope.postMessage, the handle instance in the worker is technically detached and can't be transferred again.

Implementation

external MediaSourceHandle get handle;
