Hi,

I am a newbie to Cefsharp. I have downloaded version 35. We are planning to develop a WPF and C# application that will have video chat using chromium browser. I am planning to use 3rd party video plugin in our application. I want to know how to use it in the project. I searched and couldn't find a documentation that tells me on how to build a 3rd party extension inside a chromium browser. Can someone tell me how to use 3rd party plugin in the project? Also I want to know if I open a website that wants to install a plugin, how should I allow it using the chromium browser.

Regards,
Jollyguy

The CEF framework for which CefSharp is based on does not support Chromium 3rd party plugins.

The only plugin frameworks supported are NPAPI and PPAPI.

NPAPI support has been removed from Chromium in version 45 so if it's based on that then you'll need to use version 43.

CefSharp is just a wrapper around cef so again were bound by its limitations.

There is an open issue in relation to adding webrtc screen sharing
