HTMLMediaElement: currentSrc property
Baseline
Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since July 2015.
The HTMLMediaElement.currentSrc property contains the
absolute URL of the chosen media resource. This could happen, for example, if the web
server selects a media file based on the resolution of the user's display. The value
is an empty string if the networkState property is EMPTY.
Value
A string containing the absolute URL of the chosen media
source; this may be an empty string if networkState is EMPTY;
otherwise, it will be one of the resources listed by the
HTMLSourceElement contained within the media element, or the value or src
if no <source> element is provided.
Examples
js
const obj = document.createElement("video");
console.log(obj.currentSrc); // ""
