MediaStreamTrack: readyState 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 readyState read-only property of the MediaStreamTrack interface returns an enumerated value giving the status of the track.

Value

It takes one of the following values:

  • "live" which indicates that an input is connected and does its best-effort in providing real-time data. In that case, the output of data can be switched on or off using the MediaStreamTrack.enabled property.
  • "ended" which indicates that the input is not giving any more data and will never provide new data.
