WebRTC for Safari, Opera, Firefox and IE

[Mamadou]

Hello,

I'd like to share with you a new project we open sourced: WebRtc4all
(http://code.google.com/p/webrtc4all/).
WebRtc4all is an extension for Safari, Opera, Firefox and IE.
The goal is to allow developers to add WebRTC features (audio/video
streaming) in these browsers now and to be able to easily switch to
the official implementation when it's added by Microsoft, Mozilla,
Apple and Opera Software.

Source code: http://code.google.com/p/webrtc4all/source/checkout
To build source: http://code.google.com/p/webrtc4all/wiki/Building_Source
Live demo: http://www.sipml5.org/call.htm?svn=6

Please don't hesitate to give us feedbacks.

Regards,

[varun pratapsingh]

HI 

It lacks two things for the feedback what I think:

1) Documentation where to start and how to do?

2) The WenRTC4all is 8.8 MB installer. I think when end user wants to use our websoftphone for calling then first he have to install this 8.8 MB on that system. That loses some web experience as it is better to install the PC Softphone like Xlite then to install the 8.8 MB.

Regards

Varun

Does xlite works on Safari, Opera, IE, chrome or Firefox?

WebRTC is what I use to call as New Generation of communication software, it is not comparable to old / legacy VOIP soft phones like Xlite, although they both share the same basis. So, indeed its a good achievement and contribution to open source community. Now, we are able to develop and test applications for all these browsers as well, till they add native support for it.

Thank you.

Hi Varun,

I think you missed the point of the problem that the WebRtc4All plugin is trying to solve. This merely implements the PeerConnection API inside Safari, Firefox, Opera, and Internet Explorer so that you can begin building applications that run on this platform today and be ready to go into production once the browsers catch up.

I don't think this plugin is actually intended for production but merely for testing as-if the browsers actually implemented the official PeerConnection API.

Marmadou, with that said, the last thing you're missing is the OSX and Unix support, but you knew that already. I'm on Ubuntu 11.04 64 bit, so a Unix version of this would be awesome ;)   Thank you for your work on this!

For people who reported problems calling Chrome Canary: This was an
issue in Chrome (https://groups.google.com/group/discuss-webrtc/
browse_frm/thread/706126a5b1019387) and has been fixed:
http://code.google.com/p/webrtc/issues/detail?id=717
The fix will be part of the next Canary release.
For testing, I recommend using Chrome 21.0.1180.60 m (https://
www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/browser/)

Didn't noticed the issue because WebRTC is enabled on my browser.
To fix the issue, just enable WebRTC PeerConnection as explained at
http://code.google.com/p/sipml5/wiki/Enable_WebRTC_On_Chrome
Please note that 'Enable MediaStream' will not appear as it's now
always ON (will be same for PeerConnection)
