Web Camera access allowed by default.

[minojs...@gmail.com]

My PHP application uses the Web Camera through the use of webcam.js. But PHP Desktop by default restricts access. How can I allow access by default?

Thank you,

Hoping for a speedy reply.

Been a long time since I used PHP Desktop (use to use in training sessions a lot). Seems I recall dealing with on student issue and solved by:

https://github.com/cztomczak/phpdesktop/wiki/Chrome-settings#command_line_switches

Cannot swear to it working, but best my ole memory recalls:

Forces to use chrome camera app when camera icon is clicked.

Example:

command_line_switches: {

"lang": "en",

"enable-media-stream": "",

"force-use-chrome-camera": ""

},

From settings.json:

"chrome": {
        "log_file": "debug.log",
        "log_severity": "default",
        "cache_path": "",
        "external_drag": true,
        "external_navigation": false,
        "reload_page_F5": false,
        "devtools_F12": false,
        "remote_debugging_port": 0,
        "command_line_switches": {
 "lang": "en",
 "enable-media-stream": "",
 "force-use-chrome-camera": ""
 },
        "enable_downloads": true,
        "context_menu": {
            "enable_menu": false,
            "navigation": true,
            "print": false,
            "view_source": false,
            "open_in_external_browser": true,
            "devtools": false
        }
    }

Hello All, 

I'm using webcam.js too, But still cannot access the webcam. Could you share your html code that works to access the webcam? 

I already add these line in my setting.json but still not works : 

        "command_line_switches": {

"enable-media-stream": "",

"force-use-chrome-camera": ""

},

Any help will be very appreciated. Thank you. 

Regards, 
Christine
