Description

Not sure this will be a common problem, but in case the stream connection interrupts, the WebRTC frontend wouldn’t automatically re-connect.

But we can probably catch the error event and then implement a periodic retry, for example.

Research direction

The issue identifies the WebRTC frontend but names no files, tests, or entry points. Locate the frontend's WebRTC connection and error handling, then determine how an interruption is detected and how periodic retries should behave. Done means the stream reconnects automatically after a network interruption.
