HTMLMediaElement: seeked event

{{APIRef("HTMLMediaElement")}} 

The seeked event is fired when a seek operation completed, the current playback position has changed, and the Boolean seeking attribute is changed to false.

This event is not cancelable and does not bubble.

Syntax

Use the event name in methods like {{domxref("EventTarget.addEventListener", "addEventListener()")}} , or set an event handler property.

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

onseeked = (event) => { }

Event type

A generic {{domxref("Event")}} .

Examples

These examples add an event listener for the HTMLMediaElement’s seeked event, then post a message when that event handler has reacted to the event firing.

Using addEventListener():

const video = document.querySelector("video");

video.addEventListener("seeked", (event) => {
  console.log("Video found the playback position it was looking for.");
});

Using the onseeked event handler property:

const video = document.querySelector("video");

video.onseeked = (event) => {
  console.log("Video found the playback position it was looking for.");
};
