Make HTML5 video stop at indicated time

Question

I have a HTML5 video element in my page. The video I want to play is having a duration of 10 minutes.

I have to play the part of the video from minute

Answer 1

The timeupdate event is what you are looking for, but it only fires at about 2 fps which is too slow to stop at precise times.

For those cases I used requestAnimationFrame which fires at 60 fps and decreased the endTime a little which fixes small "lag hops":

const onTimeUpdate = () => {
    if (video.currentTime >= (endTime - 0.05)) {
      video.pause()
    } else {
      window.requestAnimationFrame(onTimeUpdate)
    }
}
window.requestAnimationFrame(onTimeUpdate)
