This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
HTMLMediaElement contains several attributes and on developing now for a while I have noticed that some useful attributes are missing: - An attribute that contains the frames per second currently being displayed for a video. This could be useful for statistics and to see how well a video plays. - An attribute to get the current state of hardware acceleration. This would also be useful for statistics and help on troubleshooting if users experience performance issues.
This bug constitutes a request for a new feature of HTML. The current guidelines [1], rather than track such requests as bugs or issues, please create a proposal outlining the desired behavior, or at least a sketch of what is wanted (much of which is probably contained in this bug), and start the discussion/proposal in the WICG [2]. As your idea gains interest and momentum, it may be brought back into HTML through the Intent to Migrate process [3].
