Problem with testing video viewer function

[EmilienRNN]

Hello,

I have just discovered this repository and I wanted to try WebRTC for watching my V4L2 camera on browser. I have tried this function :
video-viewer /dev/video0 webrtc://@:8554/output function. This is creating a new window on my Jetson with the camera no problem. But, when I want to watch it through the web browser, there is the template like in the example but i don't see any video getting displayed.
I have also tried the other functions/applications for testing webrtc (flask, html, server) but it resulted in the same problem.
I am using e-con camera STURDeCAM31_CUOAGX.
Thanks for your help.

Hi @EmilienRNN, can you try chrome or chromium browser, and disable chrome://flags#enable-webrtc-hide-local-ips-with-mdns ?

[EmilienRNN]

Thanks for your quick answer ! I might be dumb but how should I process to do that ?

@EmilienRNN that is on whatever client device you are running the browser on (could be a jetson). Just navigate to chrome://flags , then search enable-webrtc-hide-local-ips-with-mdns, disable it, and restart the browser. Then navigate to your jetson's port 8554

Okay I have tried on my personal computer over Wifi with my jetson and it worked on chrome. Is it normal that it is not working with Firefox directly on the jetson ? And can it work also on an android mobile with chrome or firefox installed ?

With firefox there is a webrtc codec issue I've been unable to figure out, and honestly webrtc be super complicated with all the client support, so for now I recommend just using chrome. I have tested it on android with chrome and an iPad with Safari

Thanks a lot about your help ! Is there a special android version in order to have the compatible chrome application ?

@EmilienRNN I had tried it previously from Android phone using stock Chrome browser, and it worked. Also worked on iPad with Safari the last I tried it.
