HTML::O...diaTrack(3)

💖 HTML::Object::DOM::MediaTrack — the manual, but make it cute 💖

okay so bestie, you found yourself in the HTML::Object::DOM::MediaTrack(3) page, which lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of the manual, and honestly? it's a whole vibe. this is the shared-interface glow-up page for audio and video tracks, and i'm gonna walk you through it like we're texting at 2am. no cap. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

HTML::Object::DOM::MediaTrack — HTML Object. that's it, that's the name, she's iconic and she knows it. 👑

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

mkay so this is how you actually summon one:

use HTML::Object::DOM::MediaTrack;
my $this = HTML::Object::DOM::MediaTrack->new ||
    die( HTML::Object::DOM::MediaTrack->error, "\n" );

literally just use it, call ->new, and if that fails (rude) you die with ->error and a newline. classic Perl main-character energy, || and all. 💅

---

🦋 VERSION 🦋

v0.2.0

that's the version, bestie. write it down. 🍓

---

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so here's the tea: this class is a shared interface for HTML::Object::DOM::AudioTrack and HTML::Object::DOM::VideoTrack. one vibe, two tracks. it's giving "we're all in the same group chat". 🫶

🧚 INHERITANCE 🧚

look at this lineage, she's got ancestors:

+-----------------------+     +---------------------------+     +-------------------------------+
| HTML::Object::Element | --> | HTML::Object::EventTarget | --> | HTML::Object::DOM::MediaTrack |
+-----------------------+     +---------------------------+     +-------------------------------+

so it goes HTML::Object::Element ➡️ HTML::Object::EventTarget ➡️ HTML::Object::DOM::MediaTrack. one long chain of --> and honestly? slay. ✨

💜 METHODS 💜

these are the methods, one by one, no skipping, i promise. 🎀

🌸 id

a string that uniquely identifies the track within the media. and yes, that ID is useful — you can locate a specific track inside an audio track list by calling "AudioTrackList".getTrackById(). it can ALSO be used as the fragment part of the URL, but only if the media supports seeking by media fragment per the Media Fragments URI specification. so like, conditional slay. 💅

see also the Mozilla documentation for audio id <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/AudioTrack/id> and also see the Mozilla documentation for video id <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/VideoTrack/id>.

🦋 kind

a string specifying the category the track falls into. for example, the main audio track would have a kind of "main". think of it as the track's whole personality. 😌

see also the Mozilla documentation for audio kind <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/AudioTrack/kind> and the Mozilla documentation for video kind <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/VideoTrack/kind>.

🍓 label

a string giving a human-readable label for the track. like, an audio commentary track for a movie might have a label of "Commentary with director John Q. Public and actors John Doe and Jane Eod." iconic casting, honestly. and if no label is provided? this string is empty. periodt. 💀

see also the Mozilla documentation for audio label <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/AudioTrack/label> and the Mozilla documentation for vide label <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/VideoTrack/label>.

(yes, the original really says "vide label" without the "o" — i'm keeping it exactly as written, because the facts stay the facts, bestie. 🙈)

🌈 language

a string specifying the audio track's primary language, or an empty string if it's unknown. it's specified as a BCP 47 (RFC 5646) language code, such as "en-US" or "pt-BR". multilingual queen. 👑

see also the Mozilla documentation for audio language <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/AudioTrack/language> and the Mozilla documentation for video language <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/VideoTrack/language>.
