[SOLVED] getusermedia freezes in mobile browsers

The JavaScript below captures still images from a webcam on a jQuery-mobile website. The code works perfectly on desktops, but on mobile phones (Android and iOS) the video plays then stops on the first frame!
Code (sorry about the length):
    window.shutter = document.createElement('audio');
    window.shutter.volume = 1;

    // var v = new uploadZone($('<img data-src="http://link-to-upload/" data-multiple="true"/>"));
    // v.load();
    uploadZone = function(element){
        var object = this,
            mobileInput = $('<input type="file" accept="image/*" multiple="multiple" />'),
            errBack = function(e){console.log('error',e);},
            localstream,
            canvas = document.createElement('canvas'),
            thumb = document.createElement('canvas'),
            ctx = canvas.getContext("2d"),
            ctxsmall = thumb.getContext("2d"),
            videoObj = {"video": true},
            video = document.createElement('video'),
            uz = $('<div id="uploadzone-container">'),

I'm not sure if the problem is in my this.start() function? Or is there something else I'm not aware of when handling a webcam on mobile devices?
