RTCVideoSourceStats
Baseline Widely available *
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since May 2023.
* Some parts of this feature may have varying levels of support.
TheRTCVideoSourceStats dictionary of theWebRTC API provides statistics information about a video track (MediaStreamTrack) that is attached to one or more senders (RTCRtpSender).
These statistics can be obtained by iterating theRTCStatsReport returned byRTCRtpSender.getStats() orRTCPeerConnection.getStats() until you find a report with thetype ofmedia-source and akind ofvideo.
Note:For video information about remotely sourced tracks (that are being received), seeRTCInboundRtpStreamStats.

Instance properties
framesOptionalA positive number that indicates the total number of frames originating from this video source.
framesPerSecondOptionalA positive number that represents the number of frames originating from this video source in the last second.This property is not defined on this stats object for the first second of its existence.
heightOptionalA number that represents the height, in pixels, of the last frame originating from this source.This property is not defined on this stats object until after the first frame has been produced.
widthOptionalA number that represents the width, in pixels, of the most recent frame originating from this source.This property is not defined on this stats object until after the first frame has been produced.
Common media-source properties
The following properties are present in bothRTCVideoSourceStats andRTCAudioSourceStats:
trackIdentifierA string that contains the
idvalue of theMediaStreamTrackassociated with the video source.kindA string indicating whether this object represents stats for a video source or a media source. For an
RTCVideoSourceStatsthis will always bevideo.
Common instance properties
The following properties are common to all statistics objects.
idA string that uniquely identifies the object that is being monitored to produce this set of statistics.
timestampA
DOMHighResTimeStampobject indicating the time at which the sample was taken for this statistics object.typeA string with the value
"media-source", indicating that the object is an instance of eitherRTCAudioSourceStatsorRTCVideoSourceStats.
Description
The interface provides statistics about a video media source attached to one or more senders.The information includes an identifier for the associatedMediaStreamTrack, along with the height and width of the last frame sent from the source, the number of frames sent from the source, and the frame rate.
Examples
This example shows how you might iterate the stats object returned fromRTCRtpSender.getStats() to get the video-specific media-source stats.
// where sender is an RTCRtpSenderconst stats = await sender.getStats();let videoSourceStats = null;stats.forEach((report) => { if (report.type === "media-source" && report.kind==="video") { videoSourceStats = report; break; }});// videoSourceStats will be null if the report did not include video source statsconst frames = videoSourceStats?.frames;const fps = videoSourceStats?.framesPerSecond;const width = videoSourceStats?.width;const height = videoSourceStats?.height;Specifications
