Plugin auto install for IE #82

Open jauhenk opened 9 years ago

jauhenk commented 9 years ago

Hey guys! Is it any possibility to run auto installation of the plugin for IE?

johache commented 9 years ago

Can you be more specific about what you mean by auto-installation? If you mean start the download immediately on arriving on the page, sure, you can do that. Just access the download link defined in the adapter: AdapterJS.WebRTCPlugin.pluginInfo.downloadLink

Sure: I mean can we run immediately plugin installation with ActiveX? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6122437/firebreath-plugin-automatic-installation

Hi, That is SUPER interesting. However, reading pmont's answer, it seems like the binaries have to be signed. We currently do not sign the free plugin. We do support plugin signing for our contracted customer though. I this case I think you might be able to modify the injection of the plugin done by the adapter to use this feature. To be tested.

Yes, that would be a super feature. Most users with lack of WebRTC support are on IE, and most of them are afraid of manually installing additional software, till most of it is malware in some way (they do not know what they a really installing - a browser plugin or a virus) Auto-installation in terms of a browser will be really helpfull here.

Agreed. @agouaillard @ncurrier @serrynaimo What do you think? Is it worth getting a certificate and starting to sign all free plugins? What would be the cost?

agouaillard commented 9 years ago

take that discussion offline with thomas and nath.
