TextTrackCue.id

The id property of the TextTrackCue interface returns and sets the identifier for this cue.

Syntax

let id = TextTrackCue.id;
TextTrackCue.id = a;

Value

Examples

In the following example a new VTTCue (which inherits from TextTrackCue) is created. The id property is then set to "first", before the cue is added.

let video = document.querySelector('video');
let track = video.addTextTrack("captions", "Captions", "en");
track.mode = "showing";

let cue1 = new VTTCue(0, 0.9, 'Hildy!');
cue1.id = "first";
track.addCue(cue1);
