I have a requirement, On Api response updating beep sound should trigger. The solution which I used is worked in Chrome and Firefox browsers but it is not working on Internet Explorer.
if ($scope.totalQueueList) {
var audio = new Audio();
audio.src = 'rest/assets/images/beep.mp3';
audio.oncanplaythrough = (event) => {
var playedPromise = audio.play();
if (playedPromise) {
playedPromise.catch((e) => {
console.log(e)
if (e.name === 'NotAllowedError' || e.name === 'NotSupportedError') {
console.log(e.name);
}
}).then(() => {
});
}
}
}
So anybody please help me out with how it works on Internet explore?
According to https://caniuse.com onplaythrough attribute is not supported in IE.
However, you can instead addEventListener to the element, where the event is playthrough (no ‘on’).
I use this function for play sound
var soundObject = null;
function PlaySound() {
if (soundObject != null) {
document.body.removeChild(soundObject);
soundObject.removed = true;
soundObject = null;
}
soundObject = document.createElement("embed");
//soundObject.setAttribute("src", "../Sounds/beep-01a1.wav");
soundObject.setAttribute("src", "../Sounds/Small Blink.mp3");
soundObject.setAttribute("hidden", true);
soundObject.setAttribute("autostart", true);
document.body.appendChild(soundObject);
// alert('hii sound');
}
it works fine in all browser instead of Microsoft Edge browser it shows buzzer icon in browser
Any help is appreciable, Thanks.
The Edge browser seemingly ignores the "hidden" attribute. Try this:
soundObject.setAttribute("style", "display:none");
I'm making a chrome app and I'd like to have custom controls for the video playback but I'm having some difficulties with the mute button. Most of the videos that will be played in the app are silent so I'd like to be able to disable the button when there is no audio track just like chrome does with the default controls.
Tried using the volume value but it returns "1" even though there's no audio track. Checking if the video is muted didn't work either.
Here's a snippet.
Any suggestions?
Shorter function based on upuoth's answer and extended to support IE10+
function hasAudio (video) {
return video.mozHasAudio ||
Boolean(video.webkitAudioDecodedByteCount) ||
Boolean(video.audioTracks && video.audioTracks.length);
}
Usage:
var video = document.querySelector('video');
if(hasAudio(video)) {
console.log("video has audio");
} else{
console.log("video doesn't have audio");
}
At some point, browsers might start implementing the audioTracks property. For now, you can use webkitAudioDecodedByteCount for webkit, and mozHasAudio for firefox.
document.getElementById("video").addEventListener("loadeddata", function() {
if (typeof this.webkitAudioDecodedByteCount !== "undefined") {
// non-zero if video has audio track
if (this.webkitAudioDecodedByteCount > 0)
console.log("video has audio");
else
console.log("video doesn't have audio");
}
else if (typeof this.mozHasAudio !== "undefined") {
// true if video has audio track
if (this.mozHasAudio)
console.log("video has audio");
else
console.log("video doesn't have audio");
}
else
console.log("can't tell if video has audio");
});
For some reason #fregante's hasAudio function stopped working in Chrome at some point - even after waiting for the "loadeddata" and "loadedmetadata" events, and even the "canplaythrough" event. It may have something to do with the video format I'm using (webm). In any case, I solved it by playing the video for a short amount of time:
// after waiting for the "canplaythrough" event:
hasAudio(video); // false
video.play();
await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 1000));
video.pause();
hasAudio(video); // true
There are different ways to check whether a video file has audio or not, one of which is to use mozHasAudio, video.webkitAudioDecodedByteCount and video.audioTracks?.length properties of video, clean and simple...
const video = component.node.querySelector("video");
video.onloadeddata = function() {
if ((typeof video.mozHasAudio !== "undefined" && video.mozHasAudio) ||
(typeof video.webkitAudioDecodedByteCount !== "undefined" && video.webkitAudioDecodedByteCount > 0) ||
Boolean(video.audioTracks?.length)) {
console.log("This video has audio tracks.");
} else {
console.log("This video has no audio tracks.");
}
};
after a couple of hours of struggling here I am. I have the following code, which apparently should just start my webcam and prompt the stream on the webpage:
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title>HTML5 Webcam Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<video id="sourcevid" autoplay>Put your fallback message here.</video>
<div id="errorMessage"></div>
<script>
video = document.getElementById('sourcevid');
navigator.getUserMedia = navigator.webkitGetUserMedia || navigator.getUserMedia;
window.URL = window.URL || window.webkitURL;
function gotStream(stream) {
if (window.URL) {
video.src = window.URL.createObjectURL(stream);
} else {
video.src = stream; // Opera.
}
video.onerror = function(e) {
stream.stop();
};
stream.onended = noStream;
}
function noStream(e) {
var msg = 'No camera available.';
if (e.code == 1) {
msg = 'User denied access to use camera.';
}
document.getElementById('errorMessage').textContent = msg;
}
navigator.webkitGetUserMedia({video: true}, gotStream, noStream);
</script>
</body>
</html>
No errors in the console, but no webcam stream either. Just the "User denied access to use camera.".
I tried another example, too long to show, but again apparently as soon as I try to run the page the stream falls into the .onended function:
function gotStream(stream) {
video.src = URL.createObjectURL(stream);
video.onerror = function () {
stream.stop();
};
stream.onended = noStream;
[...]
Where noStream is a simple function that prints something:
function noStream() {
document.getElementById('errorMessage').textContent = 'No camera available.';
}
So basically when I'm running the second example I'm shown the "No camera available" on the webpage.
I'm running on Chrome Version 22.0.1229.94, I saw somewhere that I needed to enable some flags, but I couldn't find them in my chrome://flags; the flags' name were Enable MediaStream and Enable PeerConnection, but in my version I only have the second one, which I enabled.
Any thoughts? Is the API I'm using old by any means? Can somebody point me to some working example?
Thanks
According to http://www.webrtc.org/running-the-demos the getUserMedia API is available on stable version as of Chrome 21 without the need to use any flag.
I think the error happens because you are trying to instantiate the stream without to define the url stream properly. Consider that you need to access the url stream differently in Chrome and Opera.
I would create the structure of your code as something like below:
function gotStream(stream) {
if (window.URL) {
video.src = window.URL.createObjectURL(stream) || stream;
video.play();
} else {
video.src = stream || stream; // Opera.
video.play();
}
video.onerror = function(e) {
stream.stop();
};
stream.onended = noStream;
}
function noStream(e) {
var msg = 'No camera available.';
if (e.code == 1) {
msg = 'User denied access to use camera.';
}
document.getElementById('errorMessage').textContent = msg;
}
var options = {video: true, toString: function(){return 'video';}};
navigator.getUserMedia(options, gotStream, noStream);
EDIT:
You need to replace the source video element with the media stream. Edited the code above.
video = document.getElementById('sourcevid');
I recommend for reading these two articles:
http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/getusermedia/intro/
http://dev.opera.com/articles/view/playing-with-html5-video-and-getusermedia-support/
I opened a webcam by using the following JavaScript code:
const stream = await navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({ /* ... */ });
Is there any JavaScript code to stop or close the webcam?
Since this answer has been originally posted the browser API has changed.
.stop() is no longer available on the stream that gets passed to the callback.
The developer will have to access the tracks that make up the stream (audio or video) and stop each of them individually.
More info here: https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2015/07/mediastream-deprecations?hl=en#stop-ended-and-active
Example (from the link above):
stream.getTracks().forEach(function(track) {
track.stop();
});
Browser support may differ.
Previously, navigator.getUserMedia provided you with a stream in the success callback, you could call .stop() on that stream to stop the recording (at least in Chrome, seems FF doesn't like it)
Use any of these functions:
// stop both mic and camera
function stopBothVideoAndAudio(stream) {
stream.getTracks().forEach(function(track) {
if (track.readyState == 'live') {
track.stop();
}
});
}
// stop only camera
function stopVideoOnly(stream) {
stream.getTracks().forEach(function(track) {
if (track.readyState == 'live' && track.kind === 'video') {
track.stop();
}
});
}
// stop only mic
function stopAudioOnly(stream) {
stream.getTracks().forEach(function(track) {
if (track.readyState == 'live' && track.kind === 'audio') {
track.stop();
}
});
}
Don't use stream.stop(), it's deprecated
MediaStream Deprecations
Use stream.getTracks().forEach(track => track.stop())
FF, Chrome and Opera has started exposing getUserMedia via navigator.mediaDevices as standard now (Might change :)
online demo
navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({audio:true,video:true})
.then(stream => {
window.localStream = stream;
})
.catch( (err) =>{
console.log(err);
});
// later you can do below
// stop both video and audio
localStream.getTracks().forEach( (track) => {
track.stop();
});
// stop only audio
localStream.getAudioTracks()[0].stop();
// stop only video
localStream.getVideoTracks()[0].stop();
Suppose we have streaming in video tag and id is video - <video id="video"></video> then we should have following code -
var videoEl = document.getElementById('video');
// now get the steam
stream = videoEl.srcObject;
// now get all tracks
tracks = stream.getTracks();
// now close each track by having forEach loop
tracks.forEach(function(track) {
// stopping every track
track.stop();
});
// assign null to srcObject of video
videoEl.srcObject = null;
Starting Webcam Video with different browsers
For Opera 12
window.navigator.getUserMedia(param, function(stream) {
video.src =window.URL.createObjectURL(stream);
}, videoError );
For Firefox Nightly 18.0
window.navigator.mozGetUserMedia(param, function(stream) {
video.mozSrcObject = stream;
}, videoError );
For Chrome 22
window.navigator.webkitGetUserMedia(param, function(stream) {
video.src =window.webkitURL.createObjectURL(stream);
}, videoError );
Stopping Webcam Video with different browsers
For Opera 12
video.pause();
video.src=null;
For Firefox Nightly 18.0
video.pause();
video.mozSrcObject=null;
For Chrome 22
video.pause();
video.src="";
With this the Webcam light go down everytime...
Try method below:
var mediaStream = null;
navigator.getUserMedia(
{
audio: true,
video: true
},
function (stream) {
mediaStream = stream;
mediaStream.stop = function () {
this.getAudioTracks().forEach(function (track) {
track.stop();
});
this.getVideoTracks().forEach(function (track) { //in case... :)
track.stop();
});
};
/*
* Rest of your code.....
* */
});
/*
* somewhere insdie your code you call
* */
mediaStream.stop();
You can end the stream directly using the stream object returned in the success handler to getUserMedia. e.g.
localMediaStream.stop()
video.src="" or null would just remove the source from video tag. It wont release the hardware.
Since you need the tracks to close the streaming, and you need the stream boject to get to the tracks, the code I have used with the help of the Muaz Khan's answer above is as follows:
if (navigator.getUserMedia) {
navigator.getUserMedia(constraints, function (stream) {
videoEl.src = stream;
videoEl.play();
document.getElementById('close').addEventListener('click', function () {
stopStream(stream);
});
}, errBack);
function stopStream(stream) {
console.log('stop called');
stream.getVideoTracks().forEach(function (track) {
track.stop();
});
Of course this will close all the active video tracks. If you have multiple, you should select accordingly.
If the .stop() is deprecated then I don't think we should re-add it like #MuazKhan dose. It's a reason as to why things get deprecated and should not be used anymore. Just create a helper function instead... Here is a more es6 version
function stopStream (stream) {
for (let track of stream.getTracks()) {
track.stop()
}
}
You need to stop all tracks (from webcam, microphone):
localStream.getTracks().forEach(track => track.stop());
Start and Stop Web Camera,(Update 2020 React es6 )
Start Web Camera
stopWebCamera =()=>
//Start Web Came
if (navigator.mediaDevices && navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia) {
//use WebCam
navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({ video: true }).then(stream => {
this.localStream = stream;
this.video.srcObject = stream;
this.video.play();
});
}
}
Stop Web Camera or Video playback in general
stopVideo =()=>
{
this.video.pause();
this.video.src = "";
this.video.srcObject = null;
// As per new API stop all streams
if (this.localStream)
this.localStream.getTracks().forEach(track => track.stop());
}
Stop Web Camera function works even with video streams:
this.video.src = this.state.videoToTest;
this.video.play();
Using .stop() on the stream works on chrome when connected via http. It does not work when using ssl (https).
Please check this: https://jsfiddle.net/wazb1jks/3/
navigator.getUserMedia(mediaConstraints, function(stream) {
window.streamReference = stream;
}, onMediaError);
Stop Recording
function stopStream() {
if (!window.streamReference) return;
window.streamReference.getAudioTracks().forEach(function(track) {
track.stop();
});
window.streamReference.getVideoTracks().forEach(function(track) {
track.stop();
});
window.streamReference = null;
}
The following code worked for me:
public vidOff() {
let stream = this.video.nativeElement.srcObject;
let tracks = stream.getTracks();
tracks.forEach(function (track) {
track.stop();
});
this.video.nativeElement.srcObject = null;
this.video.nativeElement.stop();
}
Have a reference of stream form successHandle
var streamRef;
var handleVideo = function (stream) {
streamRef = stream;
}
//this will stop video and audio both track
streamRef.getTracks().map(function (val) {
val.stop();
});
