Hi,

I use react-recorder-redux (that uses react-recorder)

to record and use that for mic activity... (in a react component).

Anyway when I go on other page or back on unmount I kill all the tracks and call the stop

command on recorder (see snippet at bottom).

All good except the top tab browser still has the red recording icon on.

Cheers,
Adrian

PS:

componentWillUnmount() {
  this.props.recorderStop();
  if (this.state.stream) {
    this.state.stream.getTracks().forEach((track) => {
      track.stop();
    });
  }
  this.setState({
    streamUrl: '',
    stream: '',
  });
  this.videoElement.src = '';
}

Hi,

A stream is alive somewhere, maybe you can add some logging to the recoderStop() call and see if it actually calls track.stop() (i.e is this.state.stream === true)? Are there more than one stream on the page?

What version of Chrome are you using?

Hi,

I have 2 streams in 2 react components and for both I check if the stream is active and kill the tracks and debugging it for both it shows that it does call stop for each stream on one (only)

track, one is audio the other video only, only these 2 streams are and in different components each with its own onunmout.

I have Version 55.0.2883.95 (64-bit) of Chrome for Mac. I see it dispathces the recorder stop action, will debigg it now.

Cheers,

Adrian
