This event is not cancelable and does not bubble.

addEventListener("change", (event) => { })

onchange = (event) => { }

Event type

A generic Event.

Examples

Using addEventListener():

const videoElement = document.querySelector("video");
videoElement.audioTracks.addEventListener("change", (event) => {
  console.log(`'${event.type}' event fired`);
});

// changing the value of `enabled` will trigger the `change` event
const toggleTrackButton = document.querySelector(".toggle-track");
toggleTrackButton.addEventListener("click", () => {
  const track = videoElement.audioTracks[0];
  track.enabled = !track.enabled;
});

Using the onchange event handler property:

const videoElement = document.querySelector("video");
videoElement.audioTracks.onchange = (event) => {
  console.log(`'${event.type}' event fired`);
};

// changing the value of `enabled` will trigger the `change` event
const toggleTrackButton = document.querySelector(".toggle-track");
toggleTrackButton.addEventListener("click", () => {
  const track = videoElement.audioTracks[0];
  track.enabled = !track.enabled;
});
