Common rules
Mobile browser requires user action (button click) when starting to publish or play a media stream on mobile device. Also, audio must be muted in HTML5 video tag:
...
| Code Block |
|---|
|
var options = {
name: streamName,
display: remoteVideo,
flashShowFullScreenButton: true
};
...
if (autoplay) {
options.unmutePlayOnStart = false;
}
stream = session.createStream(options).on(STREAM_STATUS.PENDING, function (stream) {
...
});
stream.play(); |
Stream publishing and playback in Low Power Mode
In Low Power Mode on iOS devices, user action is mandatory to publish or play media stream. Autoplay does not work in this mode. Use the function playFirstVideo to detect Low Power Mode: a Promise returned by the function will be rejected:
code
| Code Block |
|---|
|
if (Browser.isSafariWebRTC()) {
Flashphoner.playFirstVideo(pDisplay, false, PRELOADER_URL).then(function() {
playStream(participant, pDisplay);
}).catch(function (error) {
// Low Power Mode detected, user action is needed to start playback in this mode
console.log("Can't atomatically play participant" + participant.name() + " stream, use Play button");
onParticipantStopped(participant);
});
