SourceBuffer.appendWindowEnd

This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.

Draft
This page is not complete.

The appendWindowEnd property of the SourceBuffer interface controls the timestamp for the end of the append window, a timestamp range that can be used to filter what media data is appended to the SourceBuffer. Coded media frames with timestamps wthin this range will be appended, whereas those outside the range will be filtered out.

The default value of appendWindowEnd is positive infinity.

Syntax

var myAppendWindowEnd = sourceBuffer.appendWindowEnd;

sourceBuffer.appendWindowEnd = 120.0;

Value

A double, indicating the end time of the append window, in seconds.

Errors

The following errors may be thrown when setting a new value for this property.
