I have been debugging this and no longer have many options, hence the long shot question - I'm using the ConnectyCube WebRTC video calling package for React Native. I have also tried using the react-native-webrtc package to stream video from my Android device.
When using both packages my app crashes without any logs or errors when I call the getUserMedia method. I have to build the app again to use it.
Here is a previous post of mine that describes earlier problems I was having - however if you download and build ConnectyCubes app from the above link, their app works - I can't figure out why mine doesn't.
So my question is, is is there anything I should be checking for relating to the getUserMedia call in React Native that might be stopping it working?
I'm using:
RN v0.59.9
gradle wrapper 5.4.1
classpath(“com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.4.1”)
buildToolsVersion = “28.0.3”
compileSdkVersion = 28
I have reached out to support but have no fix yet.
Strangely, I'm unable to log the session parameter at certain points in the function.
const getUserMedia = session => {
console.log(session); // logs here
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
console.log(session); // but not here
session.getUserMedia({
audio: true,
video: { facingMode: 'user' }
}, function (error, stream) {
console.log(error, stream) // or here
error ? reject(error) : resolve(stream);
});
});
}
#Update# The issue with the function above might be that for some reason the crash happens before the console can print anything out.
This was fixed by deleting the gradle cache and running npm i as described here:
