Create a video element and listen for loadedmetadata; once metadata loads, read videoWidth/videoHeight and divide to get the aspect ratio.
1. Create a
2. Listen for loadedmetadata, fired after metadata loads, when the video''s width and height become available.
3. Compute the aspect ratio, usually width divided by height.
// create the video element
var video = document.createElement('video');
// set the source
video.src = 'path/to/your/video.mp4'; // replace with your path
// load metadata
video.addEventListener('loadedmetadata', function() {
var width = video.videoWidth;
var height = video.videoHeight;
var aspectRatio = width / height;
console.log('Aspect ratio:', aspectRatio);
});
// to display the video, append it to the DOM
// document.body.appendChild(video);
