PROPERTIES
Inherits properties from its parent HTML::Object::DOM::Element::Media
autoPictureInPicture
The autoPictureInPicture property reflects the HTML attribute indicating whether the video should enter or leave picture-in-picture mode automatically when the user switches tab and/or applications.
See also Mozilla documentation
disablePictureInPicture
The disablePictureInPicture
property reflects the HTML attribute indicating whether the user agent should suggest the picture-in-picture feature to users, or request it automatically.
See also Mozilla documentation
height
Is a string that reflects the height HTML attribute, which specifies the height of the display area, in CSS pixels.
See also Mozilla documentation
poster
Is a string that reflects the poster HTML attribute, which an URL for an image to be shown while the video is downloading. If this attribute is not specified, nothing is displayed until the first frame is available, then the first frame is shown as the poster frame.
See also Mozilla documentation
videoHeight
Under perl, this returns undef
by default, but you can set whatever number value you want.
Under JavaScript, this is read-only and returns an unsigned integer value indicating the intrinsic height of the resource in CSS pixels, or 0 if no media is available yet.
Example:
my $v = $doc->getElementById("myVideo");
$v->addEventListener( resize => sub
{
my $w = $v->videoWidth;
my $h = $v->videoHeight;
if( $w && $h )
{
$v->style->width = $w;
$v->style->height = $h;
}
}, { capture => 0 });
See also Mozilla documentation
videoWidth
Under perl, this is read-only and returns undef
by default, but you can set whatever number value you want.
Under JavaScript, this returns an unsigned integer value indicating the intrinsic width of the resource in CSS pixels, or 0 if no media is available yet.
See also Mozilla documentation
width
Is a string that reflects the width HTML attribute, which specifies the width of the display area, in CSS pixels.
See also Mozilla documentation
METHODS
Inherits methods from its parent HTML::Object::DOM::Element::Media
getVideoPlaybackQuality
Under perl, this always returns undef
.
Under JavaScript, this returns a VideoPlaybackQuality
object that contains the current playback metrics. This information includes things like the number of dropped or corrupted frames, as well as the total number of frames.
See also Mozilla documentation
requestPictureInPicture
Under perl, this always returns undef
obviously.
Under JavaScript, this requests that the user agent make video enters picture-in-picture mode
See also Mozilla documentation
EVENTS
Event listeners for those events can also be found by prepending on
before the event type:
For example, enterpictureinpicture
event listeners can be set also with onenterpictureinpicture
method:
$e->onenterpictureinpicture(sub{ # do something });
# or as an lvalue method
$e->onenterpictureinpicture = sub{ # do something };
enterpictureinpicture
Sent to a HTML::Object::DOM::Element::Video when it enters Picture-in-Picture mode. The associated event handler is HTML::Object::DOM::Element::Video.onenterpictureinpicture
Example:
my $video = $doc->querySelector('#$video');
my $button = $doc->querySelector('#$button');
sub onEnterPip
{
say( "Picture-in-Picture mode activated!" );
}
$video->addEventListener( enterpictureinpicture => \&onEnterPip, { capture => 0 });
$button->onclick = sub
{
$video->requestPictureInPicture();
}
my $video = $doc->querySelector('#$video');
my $button = $doc->querySelector('#$button');
sub onEnterPip
{
say( "Picture-in-Picture mode activated!" );
}
$video->onenterpictureinpicture = \&onEnterPip;
$button->onclick = sub
{
$video->requestPictureInPicture();
}
See also Mozilla documentation
leavepictureinpicture
Sent to a HTML::Object::DOM::Element::Video when it leaves Picture-in-Picture mode. The associated event handler is HTML::Object::DOM::Element::Video.onleavepictureinpicture
Example:
my $video = $doc->querySelector('#$video');
my $button = $doc->querySelector('#$button');
sub onExitPip
{
say( "Picture-in-Picture mode deactivated!" );
}
$video->addEventListener( leavepictureinpicture => \&onExitPip, { capture => 0 });
$button->onclick = sub
{
if( $doc->pictureInPictureElement )
{
$doc->exitPictureInPicture();
}
}
my $video = $doc->querySelector('#$video');
my $button = $doc->querySelector('#$button');
sub onExitPip
{
say( "Picture-in-Picture mode deactivated!" );
}
$video->onleavepictureinpicture = \&onExitPip;
$button->onclick = sub
{
if( $doc->pictureInPictureElement )
{
$doc->exitPictureInPicture();
}
}

EXAMPLE
<h1>Ask a question at a given point in a video</h1>
<p>The question is displayed after 10 seconds, if the answer given is correct, the video continues, if not it starts again from the beginning</p>
<video id="myVideo" controls="">
<source src="https://example.org/some/where/videos/video.mp4" />
<source src="https://example.org/some/where/videos/video.webm" />
</video>
// This only works in a web browser, so this is intentionally in JavaScript
// First identify the video in the DOM
var myVideo = document.getElementById( 'myVideo' );
myVideo.ontimeupdate = function()
{
// Remove the decimal numbers from the time
var currentTime = Math.floor( myVideo.currentTime );
if( currentTime == 10 )
{
myVideo.pause ();
// Ask the question with a promt
var r = prompt( "What is the video about?" );
// check the answer
if( r.toLowerCase() == "Example" )
{
myVideo.currentTime = 11; // Add a second otherwise the question will be displayed again;
myVideo.play();
}
else
{
myVideo.currentTime = 0; // Put the video back to 0;
myVideo.play();
}
}
}

Picture in Picture (a.k.a. PiP)
The W3C states that "the specification intends to provide APIs to allow websites to create a floating video window always on top of other windows so that users may continue consuming media while they interact with other content sites, or applications on their device."
<video id="videoElement" controls="true" src="demo.mp4"></video>
<!-- button will be used to toggle the PiP mode -->
<button id="togglePipButton">Toggle Picture-in-Picture Mode!</button>
Call "requestPictureInPicture" on click
of togglePipButton
button element.
When the promise resolves, the browser will shrink the video into a mini window that the user can move around and position over other windows.
let video = document.getElementById('videoElement');
let togglePipButton = document.getElementById('togglePipButton');
togglePipButton.addEventListener('click', async function (event) {
togglePipButton.disabled = true; //disable toggle button while the event occurs
try {
// If there is no element in Picture-in-Picture yet, request for it
if (video !== document.pictureInPictureElement) {
await video.requestPictureInPicture();
}
// If Picture-in-Picture already exists, exit the mode
else {
await document.exitPictureInPicture();
}
} catch (error) {
console.log(`Oh Horror! ${error}`);
} finally {
togglePipButton.disabled = false; //enable toggle button after the event
}
});
Check for Picture-in-Picture event changes
let video = document.getElementById('videoElement');
video.addEventListener('enterpictureinpicture', function (event) {
console.log('Entered PiP');
pipWindow = event.pictureInPictureWindow;
console.log(`Window size - \n Width: ${pipWindow.width} \n Height: ${pipWindow.height}`); // get the width and height of PiP window
});
video.addEventListener('leavepictureinpicture', function (event) {
console.log('Left PiP');
togglePipButton.disabled = false;
});
