Automatic picture-in-picture for video conferencing web apps

[François Beaufort]

Philipp Hancke suggested I reached out to you to let you know that a new Media Session API action handler called "enterpictureinpicture" allows your video conferencing web app to automatically enter picture-in-picture when the user switches focus from their current tab.

This is especially useful for video conferencing web apps, where it allows presenters to see and interact with participants in real time while presenting a document or using other tabs or windows.

You can read more about this at https://developer.chrome.com/blog/automatic-picture-in-picture/#enter-picture-in-picture-automatically and reach out to me if you have any questions about Picture-in-Picture in general ;)

I’m having troubles with video types. iOS/macOS are being pesky (as usual regarding web dev and cameras)

Do you know any webRTC guys that would be willing to help me? I got paid yesterday so I’m willing to pay hourly for the help… my mail is adam220adam at gmail

I’m having trouble with video types, iOS and macOS are being pesky as usual regarding web app cameras / webRTC… Twilio video api was shut down, so I’m moving to cloudflare, iOS/macOS cameras really don’t want to work well for me
