Unable to use back camera of smartphone

Open FluorescentHallucinogen opened this issue 7 years ago • 7 comments

Please add the ability to change video input from front to back camera using UI. By default the app uses the front camera. It makes the app almost unusable.

Tested on Google Nexus 5 using Google Chrome.

The following sample can be helpful: https://webrtc.github.io/samples/src/content/devices/input-output/ ;-)

What version of Chrome?

Just tested on

Chrome Stable (54.0.2840.85) Chrome Beta (55.0.2883.53) Chrome Dev (56.0.2919.3) Chrome Canary (56.0.2924.0) Chromium (57.0.2926.0)

Stable and Beta use back camera by default, all the rest use front.

This should be fixed in the latest build.

Could you please add button (or horizontal swipe gesture) to change the camera?

I just used Back Camera on Samsung Galaxy S6 with Firefox. I experienced no issues.
