In a P2P video call, switchMediaTracks is not working?

[technasir]

Hi, In a peer to peer video call, when i use below code to to switch my video camera, this.session .switchMediaTracks(constraints) .then(stream => { this.setState({localStream: stream}) }) .catch(error => {});

• The local stream gets updated successfully but the remote stream on the other device does not gets updated and gets frozen. I went to the connectycube react native code sample to see how they switch a video camera, they used this code to switch the video camera? localStream.getVideoTracks().forEach(track => track._switchCamera());
• Why was this above code is used instead of session.switchMediaTracks() that is available on the docs. Thanks.

For React Native we use this code (import ConnectyCube from 'react-native-connectycube'): https://github.com/ConnectyCube/connectycube-reactnative-samples/blob/master/RNVideoChat/src/services/call-service.js#L94 The switchMediaTracks is used for other JS projects (import ConnectyCube from 'connectycube'). We use one codebase for all platforms (JS, NodeJS, Cordova, React Native, NativeScript). I see that we have not docs for the switch cameras in RN. We will add. Thank you!

There is also this line of code that is used in the connectycube react native code sample that i can't find in the docs: https://github.com/ConnectyCube/connectycube-reactnative-samples/blob/b318570a0e5ceef521d8234b9f22fac23ee6f842/RNVideoChat/src/services/call-service.js#L75 Please add information about this too in the docs.
