Issues developing apps

Hello to all,
I’m trying to add the functionality of the Switch camera. But as soon as the user clicks on the button to make the switch he loses his streaming video and sees the player icons. has anyone already faced this problem?

Hi,

That is really weird and i have never heard that… I’ll try to research it.

By the way, you also can switch your devices without renegociating the webrtc media (that way is using in openvidu-call-ionic and it will be changed). Simply replacing the media stream track.
