The video does not appear when the user comes to the page

I try start livestream video on open page, follow doc for setup and create token, init, join, start video. Session is started, users are join on session, but video doesn’t show. I try with canvas and video tags.

on first render get error in console:
canvas is falsy
on click start button get error:
You must pass a <video> element to start video capture for Chromium browser, Android browser, and Chrome without SharedArrayBuffer support.

Hey @reactdev

Thanks for your feedback.

Could you provide the result of following expression?

console.log(window.crossOriginIsolated)

If the result is false, maybe you are not using the Cross-Origin Isolating, refer to Improve Performance in Chrome for detail. Or you can follow the prompts on the console, pass a VideoElement parameter when invoking the media.startVideo method.

Thanks
Vic

Thanks Vic,

can we put HTMLCanvasElement into media.startVideo?
When i start video don’t see video in current, from second tab i see video of first tab.
Chrome don’t ask me for camera access and i can’t strat video from chrome, when start video from firefox video is seen in chrome.

Hey @reactdev

If the value of the expression window.crossOriginIsolated is false, an VideoElement is required.
Maybe our react-sample-app is a useful reference for your cases.

Thanks
Vic
