pirate / webrtcchat Goto Github PK

I tested this out, looks pretty useful. I wonder how hard the 2 things I mentioned in the title would be to achieve[they may be impossible, input please]?

to clarify:

1. what would be some paths of least resistance to having more than 2 people connected together? Would it even be possible for more than one person to use the same session-init-credentials? or would that cause interference?

2. after a successful 'handshake'/session-init, is there any chance some credentials could be persisted - so that the next time the html was fired up, a connection can happen more automatically?

hi thanxs for sharing, i tested on safari and the signaling popups (exchanging the offer) don't work.

so is it just a demo for firefox or something we can use on all platforms?

Thanks for this excellent work. It helped me get an idea on how to connect 2 WebRTC channels without using a server / backend. I am however facing a very basic problem. I am able to use the JS application when I open 2 browser instances on the same laptop.

However, surpringly I am unable to to get the JS application to work when I use the applications from 2 different laptops even though they are on the same network. I tried this multiple times and of the many attempts, I was able to get the 2 instances to communicate only once. I am therefore assuming this is some kind of a timing issue.

The client joining the conference (not the one hosting the conference) complains that the "Chat partner disconnected". I am not an expert in WebRTC or JavaScript but I debugged this a little further and found that the client joining the conference receives a "oniceconnectionstatechange" event twice after the offer / answers are exchanged. It first receives "Disconnected" and eventually "Failed".

I am using chrome Version 88.0.4324.104 (Official Build) (64-bit) and am on Windows 10 OS. The behaviour is same even if I use Edge.

I have attached the chrome://webrtc-internals/ logs. Anything else that might help you help me. I am willing to debug the problem further but am unable to figure out how to take this forward.
