In the Accessing your Webcam in HTML tutorial, we learned about the getUserMedia API and how it allows you to access, among other things, our webcam and display a video stream to our screen. This is kinda cool, but there is a lot more we can do with this API. For example, we can use this API as part…

Thanks for your post. All steps’ve been done including Scaledron ID and changing http to https. All is on a server. But I see only myself in the left video container (see your html), my remote friend see only himself on the same place in the left container. What is wrong?

It seems that scaledrone or java script sees me as a remote user, I think that your example misses an essential part which is how to become a local user, there should be some simple register form, for instance, where I can input my secrete key or some access code. Right? I’m dumb at this, not a prog…

Hey Pavel, could you link your site so I could check the JavaScript code. It’s hard to guess what could be wrong otherwise.

Is the video the only thing that isn’t playing via the cellular network? Does the browser developer tools console show any errors? For the cellular test, are you viewing on a mobile device? If so, which device? :phone:

firstly, thank u for this project, this is very good for me… but how can 3 or much person connected for group chat? i can’t this :frowning:

That will require a more elaborate setup on the server. I would look into custom 3rd party streaming services for that level of functionality :grinning:
