Description

  • Check readyState on video and reconnect (with increasing delay) if state is 0 check of speakers
  • Check how janus behaves if publisher connection is closed, what happens with the receiver connections
  • Allow to access chrome://webrtc in desktop client
  • show avatar with loading spinner instead of empty/black space

  • @ShGKme resumed his websocket connection
  • 30s later he created a new publisher connection
  • there were no force reconnects
  • the timing strangely aligned with daniel joining the room (talk php word)
  • Selecting the video element in DOM and afterwards cehck various HTML attributes on $0
  • Re-requesting the offer with OCA.Talk.SimpleWebRTC.connection.requestOffer("PUT_SESSIONID_HERE", "video") made audio and video work

Research direction

Start with the failed-call timeline and the listed checks for video readyState, speaker state, and Janus behavior when a publisher connection closes. Use the desktop client's chrome://webrtc access and the mentioned SimpleWebRTC.connection.requestOffer call to reproduce or inspect the failure. Done means the reconnection behavior, receiver handling, and loading avatar state are defined and verified.
