HTML5 video full preload in JavaScript

Javascript Web Development Front End Scripts

Use the oncanplaythrough event to completely preload video. You can try to run the following code.

Example

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
   <body>
      <video id="myVideo" width="400" height="200" controls oncanplaythrough="display()">
         <source src="/html5/foo.ogg" type="video/ogg" />
         <source src="/html5/foo.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
         Your browser does not support the video element.
      </video>
      <script>
         function display() {
            alert("Can be played without pausing for buffering.");
        }
</script>
</body>
</html>
