The dequeue event of the AudioEncoder interface fires to signal a decrease in AudioEncoder.encodeQueueSize.

This eliminates the need for developers to use a setTimeout() poll to determine when the queue has decreased, and more work should be queued up.

Syntax

Use the event name in methods like addEventListener(), or set an event handler property.

js
addEventListener("dequeue", (event) => {});

ondequeue = (event) => {};

Example

js
audioEncoder.addEventListener("dequeue", (event) => {
  // Queue up more encoding work
});
