Lots of feedback lately #7

Closed toomim closed 7 years ago

toomim commented 7 years ago

Something seems to have changed recently (changes in chrome? change in janus?) and we get lots of feedback when tawk.spacing. I even get some feedback (sounds like a "reverb" effect) when I'm alone in a tawk.space and using headphones, so it seems like it's not even physical feedback but some kind of internal feedback.

Recently as in days or weeks? I remember the commit that added the volume bar caused problems that I don't remember if I resolved: https://github.com/invisible-college/tawk.space/commit/f0ac9494d9de317656ce7f888e5ec1fed3dc4d98.

Essentially I pass the AV streams through hark, which notifies us every 200ms what the current volume is. It has a boolean for whether to actually play the audio or not. I'm passing false to hark for local streams, and true for remote streams.

That actually might be a separate bug--I don't want to play all localstreams, only the ones that are in my group or I'm hovering over.

I commented out the hark/volume bar stuff on https://tawk.space. Can you check whether that fixed the problem?

Thanks. I tried testing just now, but I'm unable to even see myself when I open https://tawk.space.

Recently as in 1-8 weeks.

Tawk.space isn't asking my permission to use camera/microphone.
