Angular 4-5 WebRTC participants video play only on DOM refresh

[István Ferenc Tóth]

Hi all

I'm creating a little app with a WebRTC connection.

The problem is my own source video playing well, but the other participant's video play only when I trigger a DOM event, like scroll, click, or even when I select the video tag in Chrome debugger.

After that, the video stops till I interact again.

The connection itself is okay.

Hi Istvan,

I think you hit upon a bug in chrome. you need to start the video element, and after that it will keep on playing. I would say it's something like videoElm.play(), but I'm not sure.
