webReader

warning

Unstable API: This package is experimental. The API may change in the future.
The API for getting video metadata is stable and may be used in production.

A reader for @remotion/media-parser that reads either from a URL or from a File.

It is the default reader, and therefore does not have to be specified.

Example

Reading from any source
tsx
import {parseMedia} from '@remotion/media-parser';
import {webReader} from '@remotion/media-parser/web';
 
const result = await parseMedia({
// Or a `File`
src: 'https://example.com/my-video.mp4',
fields: {
durationInSeconds: true,
dimensions: true,
},
reader: webReader,
});
