How to wait until the src attribute is defined using Selenium and Python

Question

I write a program with selenium in python. My goal is to find the src of the video in the page. This is my code

video_element = chrome_driver.find_element_by_tag_name("video")
video_src = video_element.get_attribute("src")

When I try to check video_src I get an empty string, however if I put time.sleep(1) before I try to acquire the src I get the real link to the video. I have tried to use WebDriverWait instead of time.wait like so

video_element = WebDriverWait(chrome_driver, 3).until(
            expected_conditions.element_to_be_clickable((By.TAG_NAME, "video"))
        )

But I couldn't find any condition that waits until the src tag is filled with the real link. Is there a way to wait with selenium instead of time? (with time it is not guarantee that the src will be filled)

Please try below solution before that you have to switch to iframe

from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait as Wait
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=r"C:\New folder\chromedriver.exe")
driver.get('https://www.thewatchcartoononline.tv/www-working-episode-1-english-subbed')
driver.switch_to.frame("anime-js-0")
video_element = WebDriverWait(driver, 3).until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.ID, "video-js_html5_api")))
val = video_element.get_attribute("src")
print val

Output:
