Hi,

I want to disable video in the local video. So I am sending a request

{"request":"configure", "video":false}

But you can still see the led light of camera on. I want to disable the access from camera completely and then enable whenever |I want.

How can I do that?

Thanks,

Kshama

Yes, that request will stop forwarding of video to other subscribers, but it won't stop the sending from sending video as publisher.

Even if you do a local mute on client side of videoTrack camera lid will still be lid, if you want light to go off, you have 2 options:

1. Destroy local peer connection completely

2. put some duck tape over the light

But I want to continue with my audio and only disable video.

Any suggestions?

you have to call mediaStreamTrack.stop()

but on all video tracks your client has, in order to lose light on camera lid. that includes your local stream/preview,...

mediaStreamTrack.stop() has been depricated . plugin.send{"request":"configure", "video":false}

Last time I checked it was not.

Are you sure?
