问题
We can request a media stream to a screen or windows via navigator.mediaDevices.getDisplayMedia()
. However, this immediately prompts the user to decide which kind of capturing to use. I need to check if the browser/platform even support screen capturing.
Of course, it is possible to check for 'getDisplayMedia' in navigator.mediaDevices
, but this just tells us if the API is supported by the browser. In particular, on FF and Chrome on Android, the API is defined and I can call getDisplayMedia()
, but it always immediately returns a NotAllowedError
error (which is to be expected: according to caniuse, the mobile browsers do not yet support getDisplayMedia
.)
Next, I tried checking navigator.mediaDevices.getSupportedConstraints()
. However, my mobile FF returns the exact same object as my desktop FF. In particular, navigator.mediaDevices.getSupportedConstraints().mediaSource
is true
in both cases. Finally, the data returned by navigator.mediaDevices.enumerateDevices()
does not help me either. I only get a device and group ID which I cannot interpret in any way (right?).
Is it possible to detect whether or not screen capture via getDisplayMedia
is supported beforehand?
(Note: this Q&A seems fairly similar, but is about getUserMedia
and is already quite old)
回答1:
Unfortunately, there's no direct way to feature-detect whether getDisplayMedia will work on those browsers.
All you can do today is browser-sniff the UA string to detect you're not on mobile, where support is lacking.¹
I've filed an issue on the spec based on your question, to see if getDisplayMedia is better left undefined
when unsupported.
1. caniuse claims Opera Mobile has support, but this appears not so when I test it.
