Javascript for time stamp
Hi,
I'm starting a survey with 3 videos and I need the time the participant pressed 'play'. All I managed to figure out is how to record the timestamp of the onload.
Any Ideas?
Thanks!

Hello @avigail_24 ,
Assuming you have three question which contains one video each on separate page using HTML5 video tag.
Step 1: Create an embedded data(Vid1PlayTime, Vid2PlayTime, Vid3PlayTime) in the survey flow before video questions.
Step 2: Paste the following code in the js(onReady) of your first video question
var s='';
jQuery("video").on('play', function() {
if(s==''){
s= new Date();
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData( 'Vid1PlayTime', s);
}
});
Step 3: The above code will set "Vid1PlayTime" embedded data with timestamp of first video. Similarly paste the above code in other two questions with changing the embedded data variable i.e Vid2PlayTime for Q2 and Vid3PlayTime for Q3
