Bug#770659: [Pkg-chromium-maint] Bug#770659: WebRTC camera/microphone sharing does not work
Chromium 50 dropped support for externally linking to strp, so this probably works now, please test. Be aware of #821154, all video is probably broken with the current upload. Best wishes, Mike

Bug#770659: WebRTC camera/microphone sharing does not work
Package: chromium Version: 44.0.2403.107-1 Followup-For: Bug #770659 Dear Maintainer, given what has been said in the upstream bug discussion, especially https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=501318#c37 it seems the usage of use_system_libsrtp is heavily discouraged, the option is deprecated and probably it will be removed soon. Will you consider using the bundled libsrtp? If this is not the case I think that WebRTC should be disabled altogether and its absence be documented. Please note that this is a question, not a request, as I understand that there are good reasons to avoid bundled libraries. I just want to know if it's time to change browser (or compile my own version of chromium). I'm sure I'm not the only one interested in it. Thank you and kind regards, Paride -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org

control: forcemerge -1 791429 control: forwarded -1 http://crbug.com/501318 For anyone caring deeply about this bug, helping upstream figure out the problem is the right way to go (see above). Using embedded srtp is not an acceptable solution. Good luck! Best wishes, Mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Bug#770659: WebRTC camera/microphone sharing does not work
I agree: this is the Debian package of the browser that has by far the highest usage share, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usage_share_of_web_browsers#Summary_tables it's not a niche project of some Free Software integralist (like me). After years we have finally an open standard for real time audio and video communication: WebRTC. Indeed a Skype replacement is also a high priority project of the FSF: https://www.fsf.org/campaigns/priority-projects/priority-projects/highpriorityprojects#Replaceskype The page in particular says: "WebRTC has a mission to enable rich, high quality, Real-Time Communications (RTC) applications to be developed in the browser via simple Javascript APIs and HTML5. Developers should consider helping free software VoIP and video, chat, and multimedia communications projects." This is a functionality that can't be omitted from a modern browser, especially if we want to put an emphasis on open standards, and I hope we are. I know more than one person that switched to the proprietary Chrome package because of this problem, at least until it's fixed. While I appreciate the work of the maintainers of the chromium package, and I thank them for them work they did so far, this silence over a such big issue is not a good sign. I really hope they will have it sorted out. Maintainers: if you need help or feedback just say it! We'll be happy to lend a hand. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
Bug#770659: WebRTC camera/microphone sharing does not work
I appreace the interested of Paride about this bug We are talking about months...MONTHS...The WebRTC is a cornerstone of modern browsers and is inconceivable ignore this) This took me several weeks ago to back into mozilla (i'm sure many people changed browser) I wonder why the maintainers of this package give no news (if there is awareness of the bug or some plan to correct it)

Bug#770659: WebRTC camera/microphone sharing does not work
Package: chromium Version: 43.0.2357.130-1 Followup-For: Bug #770659 Dear Maximilian, First of all I confirm that the bug is still present in 43.0.2357.130-1. I really hope that this can be fixed with chromium 44, as today the support for WebRTC is far superior in chrome/chromium with respect to any other browser. My hint here is that WebRTC from the current chromium-broser package available in Ubuntu 15.04 works fine! Maybe the solution can be borrowed from there... If I can help just let me know. Thanks for maintaining Chromium. Paride PS: I already tried to reply to this bug, but I don't see my email appearing on the bug tracking system, so I'm trying again with reportbug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I can confirm this. If I remember my tests correctly in all versions of chromium 37 that hit the Debian archive webrtc was working and in all versions 38 it is broken. Sadly I have no idea what might be the cause of this. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
Bug#770659: WebRTC camera/microphone sharing does not work
Package: chromium Version: 38.0.2125.101-3 Severity: normal Starting with either chromium 37 or 38, WebRTC voice/video sharing sites have stopped working, like Google Hangouts, talky.io, appear.in, etc. The more "open" sites all say they can't get access to my camera and microphone, and Hangouts just gives an equally unhelpful "Couldn't start the video call because of an error." There was some mention in #748867 of Hangouts not working, but this is even after I've put the API keys into /etc/chromium.d and everything else seems to work fine. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (600, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages chromium depends on: ii libasound2 1.0.28-1 ii libc62.19-13 ii libcairo21.14.0-2.1 ii libcap2 1:2.24-6 ii libcups2 1.7.5-7 ii libdbus-1-3 1.8.10-1 ii libexpat12.1.0-6+b3 ii libfontconfig1 2.11.0-6.1 ii libfreetype6 2.5.2-2 it libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.31.1-2+b1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.42.0-2 ii libgnome-keyring03.12.0-1+b1 ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.25-1 ii libharfbuzz0b0.9.35-2 ii libjpeg62-turbo 1:1.3.1-10 ii libnspr4 2:4.10.7-1 ii libnspr4-0d 2:4.10.7-1 ii libnss3 2:3.17.2-1 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.36.8-2 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.36.8-2 ii libpci3 1:3.2.1-3 ii libspeechd2 0.8-6 ii libspeex11.2~rc1.2-1 ii libsrtp0 1.4.5~20130609~dfsg-1.1 ii libstdc++6 4.9.1-19 ii libudev1 215-5+b1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.2-3 ii libxcomposite1 1:0.4.4-1 ii libxcursor1 1:1.1.14-1+b1 ii libxdamage1 1:1.1.4-2 ii libxext6 2:1.3.3-1 ii libxfixes3 1:5.0.1-2+b1 ii libxi6 2:1.7.4-1+b1 ii libxml2 2.9.1+dfsg1-4 ii libxrandr2 2:1.4.2-1+b1 ii libxrender1 1:0.9.8-1+b1 ii libxslt1.1 1.1.28-2+b2 ii libxss1 1:1.2.2-1 ii libxtst6 2:1.2.2-1+b1 ii xdg-utils1.1.0~rc1+git20111210-7.1 chromium recommends no packages.
