Hello,

Because the addStream method doesn't work in Firefox, I tried to make a second call with the same person to put the new stream in parallel.
It seems that the first PeerConnection is scratched and replaced by the second one, while the stream still can be manipulated.
Unfortunately many unwanted effects happen due to this replacement of PeerConnection.

Do you think it could be possible to have many PeerConnection in parallel with the same distant user, inside EasyRTC client library ?

Thanks

Xav

Having multiple peerconnections between two peers is something that should work with WebRTC, it's just not supported by EasyRTC.
At the time, screenshare didn't exist, so there wasn't a justification for the extra complexity that would be introduced to the API (interface and application).

My general advice is, if you need multiple streams, just tell them to use chrome instead of firefox.
