webmapper waiting for devices indefinitely with Firefox

[ChristianFrisson]

Hey libmapper team,

With Firefox 76.0.1 webmapper waits for devices indefinitely. This does not happen with Chromium 80.0.3987.149. Running under Ubuntu / Pop!_OS 20.04.

This error occurs in the Firefox web console: Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at ws://localhost:50000/chat. Pointing to this line in js/command.js command.ws = new WebSocket("ws://" + L + "/chat");

Can you also reproduce this error with webmapper in Firefox?

Kind regards, Christian

Hi Christian,

I can confirm it is not working on Firefox 76.0.1 – but I didn’t test it on Firefox previously. Was it working before?

Cheers, Joe

Hey @malloch

No idea. Firefox 76.0.1 is the first web browser and version I have tried libmapper with.

Maybe the README could mention: "webmapper is developed and works best with Chrome/Chromium."?

Kind regards, Christian
