This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
Browser: Chrome 21.0.1155.2 I wrote a simple demo to test getUserMedia() function. The demo is just to show the video stream from my local camera. But I encountered a strange problem: 1) If I open the test.html directly in the browser(double click or drag to the browser), there will be a popup window to obtain user's confirmation. I clicked the "Allowed" button, but I could see nothing on the page. At the same time, however, there was a success notification on the taskbar, saying "file:// is using your camera and microphone". 2) If I put the test.html to apache's home directory and open the page through "http://localhost/test.html", there will also be a popup window. When I clicked the "Allowed" button, I could see the video stream from my camera successfully! At the same time, there was also a success notification on the taskbar, saying "http://localhost is using your camera and microphone". I was wondering what is the reason of the problem. Is there any difference between "double-click open" and "localhost open" when calling getUserMedia() function? Thanks.
Uh, is this really a bug that should be here? Can the chairs look at this.
This "bug" does not belong here.
OK,it is clear now. I agree to remove it, thanks.
