video.addEventListener("ended", (event) => {
console.log(
"Video stopped either because it has finished playing or no further data is available."
);
});
Using the onended

const video = document.querySelector("video");
video.onended = (event) => {
console.log(
"Video stopped either because it has finished playing or no further data is available."
);
};
