Videojs Warn Player.tech--.hls Is Deprecated. Use Player.tech--.vhs Instead May 2026

player.tech_.hls.on(Hls.Events.ERROR, (event, data) => { console.error('HLS error:', data); });

const vhs = player.tech_.vhs; Because the underlying object is the same, most methods will work identically. However, double-check any methods specific to the old contrib-hls . The VHS API is largely compatible but not 100% identical. Step 4: Update documentation and comments If your team maintains internal docs, update any references from “HLS tech” to “VHS tech” to avoid future confusion. 6. Code Examples: Before and After Example 1: Getting current quality level Before (deprecated):

The migration is straightforward: rename the property, test your quality-switching and event-handling logic, and update any internal documentation. Your reward is a cleaner, more maintainable codebase free of deprecation warnings.

player.tech_.vhs.on('error', (error) => { console.error('VHS error:', error); }); (Note: The VHS event system may differ slightly; always refer to the VHS documentation for exact event names.) Before:

grep -r "tech_.hls" --include="*.js" --include="*.vue" --include="*.ts" Simply rename the property access. Change:

player.tech_.vhs.currentLevel = 2; Before:

const levels = player.tech_.hls.levels; levels.forEach((level, idx) => { console.log(`Level ${idx}: ${level.height}p`); });

const currentLevel = player.tech_.hls.currentLevel; console.log(`Current bitrate level: ${currentLevel}`);
