VideoEncoder: dequeue event
Limited availability
This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.

Secure context: This feature is available only in secure contexts (HTTPS), in some or all supporting browsers.
Note: This feature is available in Dedicated Web Workers.
The dequeue event of the VideoEncoder interface fires to signal a decrease in VideoEncoder.encodeQueueSize.
This eliminates the need for developers to use a setTimeout() poll to determine when the queue has decreased, and more work should be queued up.
Syntax
Use the event name in addEventListener():
js
addEventListener("dequeue", (event) => { })
Alternatively, assign to the event handler property of the interface:
js
ondequeue = (event) => { }
Example
js
videoEncoder.addEventListener("dequeue", (event) => {
// Queue up more encoding work
});
