@FluorescentHallucinogen thanks for the changes. Please also refer to my request in this comment.

FluorescentHallucinogen commented 7 years ago

Can you please also add a back-reference to the Paul Kinlan article about this (or a better reference, if you have one).

I don't mind to add it, but what's it for?

Looks like, unfortunately, as of today there is no single up to date source about extensionless (plugin-free) screen capturing in both, Chrome and Firefox browsers.

E.g. @PaulKinlan's https://paul.kinlan.me/screen-recording-with-getUserMedia-and-WebRTC/ article has no word about Firefox.

Seems, the https://www.webrtc-experiment.com/Pluginfree-Screen-Sharing/#why-screen-fails section of @muaz-khan's page and his explanations in the comments are most relevant reference.

@cdata Where exactly in the text should I add the reference? This pull request allows edits from maintainers. Could you please help me and add it yourself.

cdata commented 7 years ago

It will be sufficient to add a note to the bottom of the explanation linking to the articles you just mentioned.

I appreciate your feedback. I do not have time to modify your PR for you. Please address the feedback, or else wait patiently until we have time to fix it ourselves.

FluorescentHallucinogen commented 7 years ago

Done.
